Biography:
Baladeen'plaat was born in an isolated village, deep within the jungles, on the Twi'lek home planet of Ryloth. As a result, Bala was already almost a galactic standard year old when Jedi Knight Aayla Secura came to claim her for the Jedi Order. As a fellow Twi'lek, Aayla had little trouble convincing Bala's parents to part with their precious child, who would in time learn the ways of the Force and become a guardian of peace and justice in the galaxy.

As a youngling at the Jedi Academy on Almas, Bala exhibited a strange and somewhat contradictory pattern to her personality. While eager to learn and a quick study, she was not one for always following the rules. This tendency often found her caught up in all manner of mischief. It was at this time that she caught the eye of the Academy's Battlemaster, a wookiee named Kirlocca.

Kirlocca took on young Bala as his Padawan learner, and directed her more mischievous energies into lightsaber combat training. Through constant martial training, Kirlocca passed on his knowledge of the Force and the ways of the Jedi to his young apprentice. When the Clone Wars broke out, Bala remained at the Almas Academy with Kirlocca, who had elected not to take up arms against the Separatist Droid Army. Instead, he organized a meditative retreat into the Almas Wasteland, a dead region on the planet's surface surrounding an ancient Sith Fortress. Though her Trials of Knighthood were scheduled to begin soon, Bala elected to accompany her master on his foray into the dead zone, along with the other Knights and Padawans that had chosen to go on the retreat.

During the retreat, as they were meditating, the group was attacked by a group of maddened Jedi, tortured by the Dark Side energies emanating from the ancient fortress at the wastelands' epicenter. This was Bala's first real-world exposure to the effects of the Dark Side. While she, her master, and the others on the retreat were able to subdue the mad Jedi and return them to the temple, the memories of the experience stuck with Bala cementing her commitment to follow the path of the Jedi.

Then, at the conclusion of the first year of the Clone Wars, her peaceful life on Almas was brought to an abrupt end. Newly knighted and acting as an assistant to Kirlocca at the Almas Academy, she received word that her former master had been killed at a peace conference he was attending. Raik Munn, an initiate who Kirlocca had dismissed from the Almas Academy for falling in love with another student, had attempted to discredit the Jedi Order by unleashing a pair of t'salaks aboard the ship on which the peace conference was being held. Kirlocca had died defending himself, his fellow Jedi, and the peace delegates.

After Kirlocca's death, Bala was reassigned to command a company of clone troopers in the Grand Army of the Republic. Being a relatively untested warrior, her unit was usually ordered in as support in smaller skirmishes and as a result, never saw the large scale clashes of the war.

Biography:

Official records claim that only seven Jedi were present at the Battle of Hypori. In truth, there were eight. Young Jedi Knight Kael Arkanus was redirected to Hypori due to a malfunction of his starfighter's hyperspace ring. He was on board the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship with the other Jedi when it was shot out of orbit. When General Grievous offered the surviving Jedi a "warrior's death", Kael fought fiercely against the cyborg. But the General found a hole in Kael's defense and severed his right arm at the shoulder before kicking him back into the wreckage. Kael was knocked unconscious and when the Republic’s Advanced Recon Commandos evacuated the Jedi, he was left behind, presumed dead. Thankfully, Grievous made the same mistake. When Kael regained consciousness, he managed to escape the planet, and broadcast a distress signal. Once rescued, he was returned to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant.

Upon his return Kael was fitted with a prosthetic replacement for his lost arm. Having seen Grievous split his arms in two to wield four lightsabers at once, Kael had requested a prosthesis designed after the general’s own limbs. When completed, Kael's new arm could split along its length the same way and sported a six-fingered hand, allowing Kael to effectively wield three lightsabers at once. When the Jedi High Council questioned his choice, Kael told them that he had wanted it as a reminder of what he’d lost and what he’d lost it to.

Kael spent months retraining himself in lightsaber combat to make use of the third blade he could now wield. After almost a year of rehabilitation and training he was ready to rejoin the war effort, secretly harboring a desire to face General Grievous again and repay him in kind for the loss of his arm. However, his path and the general's never crossed. He had just received word of the cyborg's death when the clones he was commanding turned on him. He managed to escape and disappear into hiding in the Outer Rim.

Star Wars: Knights of Fate

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...

STAR WARS: Knights of Fate

The Jedi are no more... Emperor Palpatine's Order 66 all but eradicated the Jedi, and the few who managed to escape are being ruthlessly hunted down by the Emperor's chief enforcer Darth Vader.

A young, Twi'lek, Jedi Knight, Baladeen'plaat was among those who managed to escape the betrayal of her clone troopers and fled into the Outer Rim. Never remaining on a single planet too long, she has spent the past few years watching from the sidelines as the new Galactic Empire takes hold of the galaxy.

As she is preparing to leave yet another world, she stops in a local cantina, unaware that another fugitive Jedi is already there...
