BiographyEdit

A Force-sensitive Human descendant of a Corellian noble family, Syo Bakarn was trained in the ways of the Force by the Jedi Order. During his time as a Padawan, Bakarn gained recognition after he saved his master from an attack by a Mandalorian. Eventually attaining the rank of Jedi Knight and studying as a Consular, Bakarn focused his studies on his healing skills, eventually becoming a noted healer. When the Sith Empire reappeared in the galaxy after centuries of absence, Master Bakarn fought on the front lines, joining fellow Knights Satele Shan, Bela Kiwiiks and Jedi Master Jaric Kaedan at the battle of Rhen Var.^[1]

Surviving the war and the Sacking of Coruscant, at which time Bakarn was stationed the Jedi Temple, Bakarn relocated with the rest of the Order to their ancestral homeworld Tython following the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant. Ascending to the rank of Jedi Master and joining the Jedi High Council, Master Bakarn was responsible for many of the technical aspects of the new Temple, including the construction of the new Archives and map room. Additionally, Bakarn kept an office at the Masters' Retreat where he worried about the growing conflict with the local Flesh Raiders.^[2]

The First SonEdit

"I never suspected. How many died because I never suspected?"

―A redeemed Syo Bakarn struggling to forgive himself^[src]

Unbeknownst to most, including even Syo himself, the Emperor had created an alternate personality and implanted it into Syo's mind. This personality would be known as the First Son and leader of the Children of the Sith Emperor. The First Son shielded the rest of the children from detection. Eventually, the Barsen'thor defeated him, redeemed him, expelled the Emperor's influence in him as well as his identity as the First Son, and ultimately exposed the Emperor's Children to detection. The Barsen'thor eventually gained Syo Bakarn's seat on the Jedi Council for his actions.
