Biography
Edit
Great Galactic WarEdit
Orgus Din was present on Coruscant, having just reported to the Galactic Senate along with Lieutenant Harron Tavus on the end of the Sith Empire's offensive in the Minos Cluster, when the Sith forces attacked the capital world. He "welcomed" Sith Lord Darth Angral to Coruscant by engaging him in combat. Angral quickly took the upper hand but Din escaped with his life after the duel was interrupted by a crashing Sith spacecraft. Din then fled towards the burning Jedi Temple in the company of Tavus, only to realize that it was too late to save his old home or his apprentice.
Din was later sent by Grand Master Zym to deal with the trouble his former Padawan, Fortris Gall, had caused on Balmorra. En-route, he encountered and rescued Satele Shan from Mandalorian mercenaries. After being briefed on the situation by her, he decided to inform Zym. He finally met his padawan, Fortris, and decided to take over the evacuation of the planet. Soon later, after hearing the death of Grand Master Zym, Din tracked the bounty hunter responsible on Nar Shaddaa. After a brief but intense duel, Din was holding his lightsaber at Braden's neck demanding info. Braden promised to hand over the info, as soon as they reached Dantooine. Braden later escaped from Master Din's custody. After failing to recapture Braden, Din returned to the Republic base, where the Major in charge had finally agreed to pull out. He then met with Satele, Tavus and Gall. The three of them had recently put an end to the real culprit behind the treaty's disruption, but didn't give Din a full report on the matter.
Cold WarEdit
A New ApprenticeEdit
During the Cold War, Din became a member of the Jedi High Council and began his teachings on Tython. When Flesh Raiders began invading the temple, Orgus Din led many Jedi to defend the area, and drive them out. When a young Jedi Padawan,who would become the Hero of Tython, defeated Callef who was responsible for leading the Flesh Raiders towards the temple, Orgus discovered that he wasn't a Jedi, but in fact a Dark Jedi. He believed that the Dark Jedi didn't do this alone, and so decided to send the Padawan to continue the search and find out who was really responsible while he returned to the temple to speak with the Council members; the young Padawan indeed discovered that he culprit was a more expert Dark Jedi, Bengel Morr, a former apprentice of Orgus Din, that was defeated. For his merits Din took the Padawan as his own and directed him on many missions, including saving Coruscant from the infiltrated Sith Lord Tarnis and his Planet Prison superweapon.
Hunting the Republic Super WeaponsEdit
With his new apprentice, Din headed for Coruscant where directed him on many missions, including saving Coruscant by the infiltrated Sith Lord Tarnis and his Planet Prison superweapon.
He later went on a mission to Alderaan to find the Death Mark. When his Padawan caught up with him, he left his former apprentice to deal with the Superweapon and went to track his old enemy Darth Angral, father of Tarnis.
In the meantime, however, Darth Angral created a more powerful superweapon, the Desolator, to achieve revenge and destroy Tython; in hopes of stopping him Din infiltrated Angral's vessel but here finally Orgus Din was killed by Angral.
LegacyEdit
Despite his death, Din became a Force ghost. After his pupil, now known as the Hero of Tython, managed to defeat Angral and survived a confrontation with the Sith Emperor, Din made contact with the Knight and urged his former pupil to head to Tatooine to rescue Jedi Jomar Chul, who had part of the information needed to infiltrate the Emperor's Fortress. Unfortunately, the Knight and the strike team underestimated the Emperor's power and thus, succumbed to his influence, drowned in the dark side. Din was able to break the Emperor's control over his apprentice. He told the Knight to find "a dark ally" which would ultimately facilitate the alliance with Lord Scourge.
Personality and traitsEdit
Orgus was known as being very firm in his beliefs but among the wisest members of the Jedi Council. He cared about others and would blame himself for his mistakes, such as the fall of Bengel Morr and why he chose not to take on a Padawan for so many years following. But despite this, he was one for dry humor and would often have a sly one-liner at the ready in case he needed it, especially when talking with his former Padawan, the Hero of Tython.
Orgus was a warrior through and through. A man of action, he would find it grating how the Jedi Council would talk for hours on end when the solution to certain issues were right in front of them. Despite this, he did not wish to disrespect the other masters and would never flat out call them out. He was also concerned when he saw Jedi form attachments but was often the first to forgive those that did.
Powers and abilitiesEdit
He was a skilled Lightsaber combatant, utilizing Form III: Soresu. He was also able to become a Force Ghost. He was also extremely strong in the light; indeed his mere prescence as a ghost was enough to shatter the Emperor's control over his former Padawan. However, it would seem that he wasn't very strong physically, as he was easily taken by his former apprentice, Morr, though his later apprentice defeated him. He was also killed by Darth Angral, though his final apprentice also defeated him.
