Praven was a male pureblood Sith who served the reconstituted Empire as a Sith Lord and later protected the Galactic Republic as a member of the Jedi Order. Trained as a Sith Warrior by Darth Angral, Praven participated in the attack on the Jedi Temple on the Republic capital of Coruscant at the end of the Great Galactic War in 3653 BBY. In the subsequent Cold War, Praven took on Angral's son Tarnis as his own apprentice and trained the Human as a Sith Lord, but Praven's training was not enough to prevent Tarnis' death at the hands of a young Jedi Knight when Tarnis attempted to unleash the Planet Prison superweapon against Coruscant near the end of the Cold War. Angral's pursuit of revenge drove him to dispatch his apprentices across the galaxy in order to steal other Republic weapons projects, and Praven acquired the Shock Drum weapon on the planet Tatooine after defeating the Jedi Master Bela Kiwiiks.
However, Praven's sense of honor caused him to disobey his Master and challenge the
Jedi Knight to a
duel instead of destroying Tatooine with the Shock Drum, and the Knight was able to convince the Sith Lord to abandon the
dark side and become a
Jedi. Finding a new purpose as a Jedi
Padawan, Praven learned the ways of the
light side and gladly joined the
Republic Military in defending the planet
Corellia during the
Battle of Corellia when the
Galactic War broke out with the Empire. Under the leadership of the instrument of his redemption, the Jedi Knight now known as the Hero of
Tython, Praven and the rest of the
Outer Rim Jedi Forces foiled the plans of the
Sith Emperor and prevented the
Dark Jedi Tol Braga from killing thousands of civilians.
