'''Kodais Solatus''' is a Tyro in Primus Pilus.  An enigmatic and reclusive figure he generally keeps to himself and rarely becomes involved in many of the Brotherhood's workings. Though he has military experience, and does enjoy a good fight, he prefers the life of a scholar and philosopher. 
'''Kodais Solatus''' (pronounced /kˈo͡ʊdˈa͡ɪs sˈo͡ʊlˈætˈʌs/) was a reclusive figure; generally kept to himself and rarely became involved in the Brotherhood's workings. Kodais preferred the scholarly pursuits of alchemy, history, and philosophy.   
 
== Character History ==
 
===Early Life (4 BBY-13 ABY)===
Kodais was born the second son of Rehm and Sanlee Solatus in the city of Iziz on Onderon.  He lived as most boys in Iziz did, attending school with his older borther, Daksis, and playing with his friends.  He lived in a very stable home with a good mother and a very strong father.  He loved his parents very much, especially his father.
 
====Rehm Solatus====
As with many Onderonians Rehm was a patriot and was very proud to be Onderonian.  He insisted upon only Onderonian being spoken in his home and made sure his boys learned it.  He also made certain that his boys knew their history.  Kodais would sit at his father's feet and listen for hours about the days of Freedon Nadd and pre-Republic Onderon.  He would listen as his father told him of the Republic's treachery and how it drew their world into the Republic's many wars. 
 
Rehm hated the Republic and the Empire.  During the Clone Wars, his father, Kodais' grandfather, had fought in the Seperatist Army.  Later Rehm himself would also fight.  In the days after the Clone Wars Rehm continued to fight for Onderonian indepence with the Naddists.  He would eventually lose the function of his left leg in a fight with local law enforcement years before Daksis was born.  Though Rehm could no longer fight, he taught his boys his mind.
 
Two years after the Battle of Yavin the Rebelion bombed the Imperial munitions depot on Onderon.  This only served to fuel the flames of independence for Onderon.  Once again Rehm colaborated with the Naddists.  Six years later he was arrested in front of his family by Iziz Secret Police during a raid on his own home.  As the officers dragged him from his pleading wife and terrified sons he screamed to his boys, "Never forget this!  Use it!  Never forget!"  Then he was gone.  Forever.
 
====Daksis Solatus====
The loss of his father dealt a hugh mental blow to Kodais.  At the young age of 12 the boy knew real hate.  In accordance with Onderonian tradition Daksis became the head of the family.  Though Daksis was only three years older than Kodais, he became a kind of replacement father figure for the boy.  Things progressed in this manner for three years before Daksis shocked both his mother and Kodais when he joined the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps. 
 
Kodais was devistated.  How could Daksis join that which their father had fought against his entire life?  Just before Daksis left for basic training the family got into a fight.  During the argument Kodais attacked his brother, but was beaten back.  Kodais then declared that he had no brother.  Daksis simply said goodbye to his mother and left.  Another hero had been taken from him, and it was the Empire's fault.
 
====Sanlee Solatus====
A loving wife and devoted mother, the Solatus household could not have asked for a better matron.  She shared her husband's vision of an independent Onderon and did not object to his teaching it to their sons.  However, she didn't want her husband to not get involved again.  Eventually, he did and was arrested for it.  She had lost the love of her life in one terrifying afternoon.  The event nearly destroyed her.  The only thing that kept her going was her duty to her boys and the clothing store she owned.  Through routine she maintained her sanity.
 
However, she would never be the same again.  The loss of her husband made her increasingly protective of her boys.  They were the only things she had left that still connected her to Rehm.  When Daksis left for Stormtrooper basic training she sank into deep depression.  Kodais tried his best to help his mother maintain her store and also go to school.  It was a hard time, but Sanlee finally came around.   


Unfortunately for Kodais, she was even more protective and afraid that he would leave her.  He knew this would be an issue in the coming years.  Like his father he was a patriot and wanted to serve Onderon and its people honorably.  He wanted to join the Onderonian Army.  When Kodais broke the news to his mother her psyche simply snapped and she went into a hysterical fit before slipping into a near catatonic state.  Shortly thereafter Sanlee was committed to a hospital for the mentally ill.  Three days later Kodais joined the Onderonian Army 13 ABY at the age of 17.
==Biography==


===The Army (13 ABY-18 ABY)===
===Early Life <small>(10 BBY-12 ABY)</small>===
Kodais joined the Onderonian Army as an Infantryman at the age of 17. Immediately after Basic Training he volunteered for the Commando Indoctrination Program (CIP) and was accepted. Upon completing the 12 week CIP he was assigned to the 9th Commando Regiment, 173rd Air Assault Division. After four years service and several deployments he applied for, and was accepted into, the Iziz Beast Rider Corps.  He was honorably discharged from the Army at the age of 22 years.
Kodais was born the second son of Rehm and Sanlee Solatus in 10 BBY in the city of [[starwars:Iziz|Iziz]] on Onderon. Raised in a stable working-class family, his father worked in a hospital as an administrator and his mother owned a small clothing store. Life in Imperial Iziz was stable, if tense. A low-intensity [[starwars:Onderon insurgency|insurgency]] against the [[starwars:Galactic Empire|Empire]] had been ongoing for almost a decade by the time Kodais was born. The Empire maintained a fairly large garrison to maintain the peace they had won since defeating the [[starwars:Partisans|Partisans]]. Kodais never felt oppressed as a child but as he grew he came to resent the Imperial occupation as an affront to Onderonian independence.


===Dark Jedi Brotherhood (19 ABY-Present)===
Kodais lived as most boys did in Iziz. He attended school with his older borther, Daksis, and played with his friends. Rehm would often tell Kodais [[starwars:Qel-DromaEpics|legends]] of [[starwars:Freedon Nadd|Freedon Nadd]], the [[starwars:Beast Wars|Beast Wars]], the Jedi, and the Sith. They may have been only legends and myth, but he always believed they grew from a grain of truth.


==Personality and Physical Description==
As Kodais grew to adulthood his family suffered a series of tragedies in rapid succession. Rehm was arrested by the [[starwars:Imperial Security Bureau|Imperial Security Bureau]] on charges of which Kodais never learned the nature. Daksis joined the [[starwars:Stormtrooper Corps|Stormtrooper Corps]] before Rehm was arrested. News that he had been [[starwars:Battle of Jakku|killed in action]] reached Sanlee and Kodais mere weeks after Rehm was last seen. Distraught, Sanlee took her own life when Kodais was 17 years of age.
{{Quote|What in the Hell is '''''that'''''?|Kodais Solatus upon seeing his first Chiss.}}


===Personality===
With nothing keeping Kodais at home, he sold off all his inherited property and joined the [[starwars:New Republic army|Army]] of the [[starwars:New Republic|New Republic]]. He fought in several major battles and many smaller actions against the [[starwars:Pirate Nation|Pirate Nation]] and [[starwars:Imperial Remnants|Imperial Remnants]] before being honorably discharged after five years of service. Returning to Onderon was bittersweet. Most of his friends did not understand where he had been or what he had seen. Moreover, he had become jaded and embittered toward the Empire, New Republic, and even his own people. Consumed by a slowly simmering disgusted rage, Kodais sought solace in the old legends and myths of his youth. Pouring over moldering books and tomes in museums and libraries led Kodais off world in search of the truth.
Kodais views himself as an Onderonian patriot and is exceedingly proud of his heritage. This has led him to some "militant" seperatist activities with the objective of gaining Onderonian independence from the Republic, but nothing of any real note.


Like most Onderonians he is xenophobic.  His pride in his heritage in addition to his upbringing has lead him to believe in the superiority of the Onderonians over most other sentients.  He also hates the Republic, the Jedi, and the Mandalorians.  He sees Onderon's current problems the fault of the Jedi and the Republic.  The atrocities the Mandalorians visited upon the Onderonians is difficult for him to forget as well.  He is more tolerant of the Empire though.  Under the Empire, Onderon was for all intents and purposes self governing. 
===Dark Jedi Brotherhood <small>(13-22 ABY)</small>===


Kodais is a bit of a social elitist.  He believes there is an order to the universe and one should know their place in it.  As sushi has a very peculiar sense of honor.  He gives his superiors the respect due their station, and his peers a kind of professional courtesy.  The person however, must earn his respect.  Underlings get no respect from him at all until they have proven themselves, which is difficult to do.  All this makes Kodais appear snobbish or arrogant at times.  Oddly enough though, manners are a big part of Kodais' sense of honor.  In his opinion good manners are the hallmark of professionalism and civilization.  A peer meeting Kodais for the first time may think him overly formal, but that is just his way of being polite.
===Clan Plagueis <small>(23-32 ABY)</small>===


As a xenophobe he is convinced of humanity's superiority over the rest of the universe.  He looks down his nose at all non-humans, and basically chooses which near-humans he accepts.  He views clones to be lower than non-humans.  To Kodais the artificial creation of any sentient being is an unforgivable blasphemy against the natural order of the universe.  The only other real fear he possess is a case of thalassophobia.  He grew up never seeing the ocean or any other body of water larger than a river or pond.  Consequently he is uneasy around large bodies of water and, though he can swim, is quite nervous on water. 
===Low Profile <small>(33-39 ABY)</small>===


Being that Kodais was raised in a temperate jungle environment, he hates being cold.  This was compounded when, while in the Army, his hands suffered mild frostbite during a mountain training exercise.  Ever since then his hands' functions become impaired and painful in cold weather.
===Nefarious Moniker <small>(40-41 ABY)</small>===


===Physical Description===
==Physical Description==
Though tall, Kodais is not a big man by any means.  Most would consider him of medium build.  His brown hair is generally kept short to keep maintenance down.  Likewise his beard is clean shaven.  Unlike many on Onderon his eyes are blue.  This is evidence that there was at least one immigrant in his family tree.  His olive complection however, is typical of a human Onderonian.


Kodais has a few identifying marks, none of which can be easily seen. The first is a barcode tattoo above his left ear.  Kodais received his tattoo while he was a Beast Rider.  The Beast Riders of old were prisoners that had been sentenced to die outside the walls of Iziz. Over time they tamed the beasts of Onderon and formed their own society to combat Iziz. These prisoners had their identification numbers tattooed on the left side of their heads. After the Beast Riders were integrated into the Onderonian Armed Forces many new Riders mimicked these tattoos as part of their ''esprit de corps''. In keeping with tradition Kodais had his service number tattooed on his head.

The other marks are scars. One is a small scar on his lower right abdomen from a wound sustained in a knife fight. The others are a collection of small scars covering the left side and back of his neck and left arm. These were left by shrapnel from an air burst munition while Kodais was in the Army.

Since Kodais likes to be inconspicuous he wears whatever clothing is in style for the world he is currently on. When traveling or on more rustic worlds his attire generally consists of a fatigue style jacket and trousers with boots. While in Brotherhood controlled areas he wears his robes.  
As a xenophobe and humanocentrist he is convinced of humanity's superiority over the rest of the universe.

Always the scholar, Kodais has a penchant for language. He speaks Onderonian, Basic, Hapan, and Bocce fluently, speaks passable Mando'a and Minnisiat.  He also understands Cheuch, but speaks very little.  Though he detests the Yuuzhan Vong he is studying their language. It's important to know your enemy.  Learning their speech is a good start.  Sith is a bit more difficult for him to learn as it is near impossible to find speakers to learn from.  However, he can read several different Sith scripts and knows a few words.


There aren't many worldly interests for Kodais outside of the Force. However, he does have a taste for high end whiskeys such as Corellian and Johrian.  Though not necessarily a gambling man, Kodais appreciates a good game of pazaak and usually takes his deck with him when he travels.  Styling himself as a man of culture, Kodais is an amateur collector of unusual items and artifacts.  Strangely he doesn't have a specific item or theme to his collection, just whatever he finds interesting.

Kodais Solatus (pronounced /kˈo͡ʊdˈa͡ɪs sˈo͡ʊlˈætˈʌs/) was a reclusive figure; generally kept to himself and rarely became involved in the Brotherhood's workings. Kodais preferred the scholarly pursuits of alchemy, history, and philosophy.
