K3-RN (Kern) is a Third-generation design Dark Trooper that represents an intriguing relationship between Sith Battlemaster Nobilus and Chiss Commander Orthala. Unearthed and meticulously restored by Nobilus in 41 ABY, Kern was not intended to serve the Zabrak directly. Instead, Nobilus, with his strategic foresight, presented the towering mechanical sentinel as a gift to Commander Orthala. This calculated gesture served a dual purpose; it granted the Chiss Commander an unparalleled asset in both combat and diplomatic ventures while simultaneously paving the way for Nobilus to cultivate trust and loyalty with Orthala.
