Kodais Solatus is an enigmatic and reclusive figure; generally keeping to himself and rarely becoming involved in many of the Brotherhood's workings. Though he has military experience and does occasionally enjoy a good fight, Kodais prefers the scholarly pursuits of alchemy, history, and philosophy.
Personality and Physical Description
- "What in the Hell is that?"
- ―Kodais Solatus upon seeing his first Gungan.
Personality
Kodais views himself as an Onderonian patriot and is exceedingly proud of his heritage. 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 are 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.
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. That being said he 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. 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.
As a xenophobe and humanocentrist 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 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 in or on the water. Another one if his quarks is a distinct aversion to being touched.
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.
Physical Description
Though tall, Kodais is not a big man by any means; most would consider him of medium build. His brown hair, greying slightly at the temples, is generally kept fairly short to keep maintenance low. Likewise his beard is clean shaven. Unlike most human Onderonians his eyes are blue. This is evidence that there was at least one immigrant in his family tree. His olive complexion 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 that he received 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 forearm. 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.
Personal Life
Always the scholar, Kodais has a penchant for language. He speaks Basic, Sith, and Bocce fluently. There aren't many worldly interests for Kodais outside of the Force and he lives a somewhat monastic life. However, he does have a taste for high end whiskeys such as Whyren"s Reserve and Johrian.
Though not necessarily a gambling man, Kodais appreciates a good game of sabacc or 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.
Equipment and Possessions
DC-15A
Carried by millions of Clone Troopers during the Clone Wars, the DC-15A was as much a symbol of the Republic as the soldiers who carried it. Heavy and cumbersome, the weapon was deemed "obsolete" after less than a decade of service. Tens of millions were either destroyed by the Empire or put into storage. Millions more fell into circulation on the black market. The one belonging to Kodais is one of those.
Though antiquated, Kodais regards his DC-15A rifle with great affection. The weapon is more powerful and possesses greater range than the vast majority of contemporary blaster rifles. Additionally, it is one of the few blaster rifles designed with a fixed buttstock; a feature Kodais appreciates for more accurate shooting at range. Many believe the weapon's length and weight to be serious draw backs in close fighting. They do not realize the DC-15A makes dandy club if required. Kodais has carried his DC-15A in every Plagueis conflict from the War of Ascension to the Tenth Great Jedi War.

DJB Facts
Apprentices
- Eridanis Aquila - She was Kodais' first apprentice and ultimately, a failure. Eridanis is referred to by Kodais as his "Lost Apprentice". This is both literal and metaphorical. Eridanis was a human Dathomiri that had come to the Brotherhood after seeking Dark Side knowledge past that of the Nightsisters. At first she rose through the ranks quickly and was chosen by Kodais to be his apprentice. She studied under him for two years with little progress before disappearing. It is believed that she returned to Dathomir.
- Varoth - His second apprentice, and one of great promise. Varoth excelled in his studies and progressed through the Journeymen ranks quickly. His progress even garnered the attention of the Plagueis Summit. Regrettably, like Eridanis, Varoth left Kodais' tutelage for other pursuits; leaving his training incomplete.
