Damien Knights




 * "Justice without a great cause begets nothing more than slaughter. However, that same slaughter in the name of a great cause is justice."

—Damien Knights, Master of the Order

Damien Knights is a Human (Korun) male Jedi Master of legendary status who is the Master of the Order in the New Jedi Order. Damien served the Jedi Order during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. A talented Force user, Damien possesses a strong connection to the Force. Hailing from the world of Haruun Kal, Damien Knights is the Eleventh head of the Knights Family. He is a senior member of the New Jedi High Council and serves as the Master of the Order.

A descendant of the famed Knights Family who fought in numerous wars in the days of the Old Republic, Damien can be seen at the present as continuing on their legacy, fighting against the dark side and all the while advancing Jedi knowledge. Father of the famed Jedi Battlemaster, Matthew Knights, Damien cares for him deeply, sharing a deep Father-Son connection.

In addition to his advanced control of the Force, Damien is a master of all seven form of lightsaber combat and is widely considered one of the best swordsmen in the Jedi Order. He mastered Vaapad, the modern seventh form of lightsaber combat. Mace Windu and Damien are the only practitioners of the form who did not fall to the dark side.

It was Mace Windu and Damien who led two hundred and twelve Jedi into combat at the Battle of Geonosis. He continued to serve the Republic throughout the Clone Wars, often on the front lines of fierce fighting, where he led Republic forces as a Senior Jedi General. He would distinguish himself across many battlefronts, most notably Ryloth, Juma 9 and Behpour, Malastare, Dantooine, Brentaal IV, Haruun Kal, Iceberg III, Kamino, Christophsis, Umbara, The Rig, Foerost, Alderaan, Cerea, Boz Pity, Saleucami, and Coruscant.

Following the initiation of Order 66, Damien alongside Korrah Naberrie went into exile. Spending almost 20 years hidden, Damien joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic, where he helped several Rebellion fighters in restoring the Republic. Years later, Damien alongside Luke Skywalker helped create the New Jedi Order as one of the founders, and a year later, trained Kyle Katarn. Continuing to be part of the New Jedi Order, Damien joined the High Council while becoming a Jedi Battlemaster and Master of the Order.

Early Life (38 BBY)


Damien was born into the Knights Family, and grew up in the Knights Mansion on Haruun Kal. He would spend countless hours training, preparing to take over the leadership of the Knights Family. Damien spent fourteen years on Haruun Kal, before he and his parents moved to Coruscant to begin official Jedi training in the Jedi Temple. Under the tutelage of Jedi Master Mace Windu, Damien exceedingly learned the ways of the Force. During his time, he made good friends with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Anakin Skywalker, Plo Koon, Shaak Ti and Jedi Battlemaster Cin Drallig who helped Damien develop his Lightsaber skills and Force abilities. When he had the chance, Damien would often go to the archives to read into his studies, including the history of the Order, weapons defense as well as piloting.

Jedi Training (26 BBY)
At a very early age, Damien learned of his unusual ability to see shatterpoints in the Force and how they would affect all of his future actions as well as the vulnerabilities of his opponents. With these unique abilities, he had glimpses of parts of his future.

While Damien was training, he took a blood test for the Council, determining how many Midi-chlorian counts were in him. Soon when the results arrived, the Council found out that Damien had approximately 19,800 Midi-chlorian counts per cell. The Council was amazed at how Immense his Midi-chlorian counts are. Damien started as a Youngling, proving himself to be one of the top students in the classes with impressive skills.

Over the next decade and a half, Damien went on many notable missions that included his first visit to his homeworld, Haruun Kal (during which he learned his native Korun language).

Battle of Geonosis (Clone Wars 22 BBY-19 BBY)
Shortly afterwards, it became apparent that a full-fledged military conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems would occur. Kenobi was captured by the Confederacy on Geonosis and had been prepared to be executed. Damien and Windu met with Yoda at the Senate, and watched as Jar Jar Binks bestowed emergency powers upon Palpatine, granting him the power to use the Grand Army of the Republic.

Having learned of this, Damien Knights and Mace Windu, without waiting for the clone army to be put at the Republic's disposal, led a Jedi strike force to Geonosis. Windu, along with Damien, and Luminara Unduli, destroyed Geonosian gun emplacements blocking the way to the arena in his TX-130S fighter tank. When Kenobi, Skywalker, and Padmé Amidala were brought to the Geonosis arena, Damien and Windu and their Jedi revealed themselves to Count Dooku, the leader of the Confederacy, who was personally overseeing the planned execution.

Damien and Windu personally confronted Dooku and his bodyguard, Jango Fett, in the former's private viewing booth. At that moment, Windu viewed Dooku as the shatterpoint of the entire Separatist movement, which meant striking Dooku down would theoretically end the imminent clone war before it even began. However, Windu's prior attachments to Dooku clouded his judgment, and Windu was promptly distracted by a squad of super battle droids before being flung into the arena by Fett's flamethrower. A heated but short battle followed, during which Windu decapitated Fett.

Eventually, the Jedi were outnumbered by Separatist battle droids, but Master Yoda and the clone troopers rescued the Jedi. After that, Windu, Damien, and the other surviving Jedi joined the battle as military commanders. Windu again took the controls of his tank and was moving to intercept Count Dooku when three of Dooku's Dark Acolytes confronted him in their own vehicles. Windu was able to defeat all three of them, but the delay prevented him from reaching Dooku.

Windu's failure to strike down Dooku when he had the chance haunted him for some time afterwards, since Dooku's escape effectively neutralized the Count's position as the war's shatterpoint. While many Jedi were haunted by traumatic nightmares about the Battle of Geonosis, Windu was faced with a recurring dream in which he killed Dooku before dying an honorable death at the hands of Jango Fett. As stated in his personal journals, Windu viewed his own reality of preventing the Clone Wars as his nightmare.

In the aftermath of Geonosis, Windu handed the title of Master of the Order to Yoda, who held it in addition to that of Grand Master. Also, Windu spoke with Yoda and Kenobi in the Jedi High Council chamber, and he learned from Kenobi that while he was Dooku's prisoner he learned hundreds of senators were under the influence of Sith Lord, Darth Sidious.

Return to Geonosis (22 BBY)
Although Geonosis had been captured by the Republic at the onset of the Clone Wars, resistance from the Geonosian natives and their loyalty to Count Dooku proved stronger than the Jedi Order anticipated, and the Jedi soon discovered Separatist leader Poggle the Lesser had established several battle droid foundries on the planet capable of creating thousands of weapons. The Jedi Council dispatched Damien, Mundi, Kenobi and Luminara Unduli to lead a massive clone army fleet to retake Geonosis and destroy the droid foundries, the destruction of which was viewed as essential to the Republic war effort. Determined that the second battle on Geonosis go better than the first, Damien & Mundi reviewed intelligence reports extensively looking for deficiencies in the Geonosian defenses, and spent hours discussing battle tactics with Clone Commander CC-1993, also known as "Jet." The Jedi traveled to Geonosis along with a huge fleet of Venator-class Star Destroyers and Acclamator I-class assault ship. Aboard the bridge of one of the Star Destroyers during the voyage, Damien, Mundi, and Kenobi lamented at the Republic's failure to recognize how loyal the native Geonosians remained to the Confederacy.undefinedLater, a hologram meeting session was held between Damien, Mundi, Kenobi, Skywalker, Unduli, Ahsoka Tano, Palpatine, Yoda and Mace Windu to discuss the battle plan. Damien, Mundi, Kenobi and Skywalker were to lead three separate fronts of a three-pronged attack on a Ray Shield Fortress generator, which protected the primary droid foundry where Poggle had established his command post. Mundi and Jet were to lead a northern advance through the Geonosian defense lines to a staging area called Point Rain a short distance from the shield generator. The troops would establish a defensive perimeter around the staging area, where Damien & Mundi's forces would meet up with those of Kenobi and Skywalker, who would be coming in after leading their forces through central and southern advances, respectively. Once they rendezvoused, the three Jedi were to combine their forces on an attack against the shield generator. Mundi suggested if either of the three forces were met with heavy resistance that prevented them from reaching the staging area on time, the others should wait until they arrive before advancing on the shield generator. With their planning complete, the Jedi split up to mobilize forces for the upcoming battle. Shortly after Kenobi and Skywalker's men entered the battle, Damien & Mundi boarded the LAAT/i gunship Separatist Nightmare and launched along with Jet and a company of clones aboard the Resolute, the flagship of Admiral Wullf Yularen. Damien & Mundi led several other gunships into the battle and were immediately met with extremely heavy gunfire. Several of the ships among Damien & Mundi's forces were destroyed, and Damien & Mundi quickly lost contact with Skywalker after his own gunship was shot down. Many of the ships were carrying All Terrain Tactical Enforcer and Damien & Mundi ordered them to be dropped to the ground right away, before they were all destroyed all with the gunships. Immediately after issuing this order, the Separatist Nightmare was struck by enemy fire and crashed onto the planet surface below. Many of the clones aboard were killed but Jet and Damien & Mundi survived, although the Cerean was injured, particularly in the area of his left ribcage. Jet reported that only Kenobi's forces made it to the staging area, and that Skywalker and his men had crashed were caught in a firefight with the Geonosians. Mundi ordered the injured among his men to be loaded onto the AT-TE walker, and then for the forces to move forward toward a nearby bridge, where Damien & Mundi hoped to meet up with Skywalker's forces on their way to Kenobi's position. As the forces traveled through a large caltrop field, Mundi went up ahead and used his lightsaber to cut down the giant caltrops so his tanks could pass them unharmed. Jet requested air support from Ylaren, but the admiral denied the request, claiming all starfighters and other resources were engaged elsewhere in the planetary invasion. Upon arriving at a trail leading up to a clifftop cave, Damien & Mundi split up his forces, ordering the AT-TE walkers to take the longer route to Kenobi's position while the Jedi took a squad of 13 clones to investigate what Mundi believed was a shortcut through the cave. Damien & Mundi admitted to Jet he did not know for sure the cave would be a faster route, but could only trust his instincts. After entering the cave, which disrupted their communications, Mundi sensed an incoming presence and ordered his men to take defensive positions just as a swarm of winged Geonosian warriors attacked them. Several of the clones were swept up and carried deeper into the cave to be killed, but Mundi ordered the men not to stop and continue pushing forward. Despite heavy casualties, Damien & Mundi's men cut their way through the cave, and upon reaching the other side, the Cerean ordered his clone flame troopers to fire their flamethrowers. Most of the remaining Geonosians were killed, allowing Damien, Mundi, and his surviving troops to exit the cave. Afterward, Mundi made contact with Skywalker, who informed him the path to the staging area was now clear but that Kenobi's forces were being overwhelmed by the enemy there. Upon a request for air support from Skywalker, Yularen dispatched a Y-wing bomber squadron, which dropped their munitions on the advancing Separatist tanks just as Damien, Mundi, Skywalker and Tano arrived at Kenobi's position. The Jedi regrouped and determined that, despite their losses, their combined forces were still sufficient to destroy the shield generator. Skywalker took a small force through the shield barrier and jammed the Geonosians' scanners, which freed the AT-TE walkers to fire upon the shield generator without risk of being targeted. Once the generator was destroyed, Damien & Mundi led the rest of the clone troopers into the battle via gunships. After they landed, the remaining Geonosians at the Ray Shield Fortress were outnumbered by the clones and forced to surrender, marking the end of that phase of the battle. The injured Mundi and Kenobi were unable to continue with the rest of the attack, and were to be taken back to the fleet along with the other injured soldiers for bacta tank treatment. Skywalker was left in charge of the remaining Republic forces, which were to set out for Poggle's primary droid foundry. Before departing the planet, Mundi overheard Skywalker and Tano boasting about their number of kills during the battle, and the Cerean noted that his own kill total of 65, which was greater than that of either of the two other Jedi and thus earned Skywalker's respect. Mundi and the rest of the injured left the planet, while Skywalker and Unduli later led a successful effort to destroy the primary droid foundry. By the time Mundi recovered from his injuries in the bacta tank, he was aboard a Jedi Transport docked at a Geonosian landing zone. Anxious to return to the mission at hand, Mundi reviewed strategic charts and maps to help continue the search for Poggle, who had escaped the primary droid foundry. Damien, Mundi and Kenobi were contacted via holocomm by Unduli, who had been tracking Poggle and believed he was hiding at the nearby Progate Temple. Mundi felt that location was unlikely because little would have survived the first wave of Republic attacks there, which would leave Poggle to exposure at the temple. Unduli nevertheless decided to investigate, despite Mundi's warnings against it due to an incoming sandstorm. The storm left the Jedi unable to leave the transport and provide Unduli assistance and, when Skywalker grows concerned that she failed to report in several hours later, Mundi urged him to have patience. When Unduli finally reported back, she explained Poggle had been tracked to the temple, and her holocomm transmission cut out just as she was attacked by unseen assailants. Skywalker wished to rescue her immediately, but Damien, Mundi, and Kenobi said they had no choice but to wait for the sandstorm to die down. Later, Damien & Mundi stayed behind while Kenobi and Skywalker led forces into the temple to rescue her. After getting attacked by Geonosians infected with brain worms, the Jedi tried to send clone troopers to Mundi for reinforcements, but they were killed and the message never reached him. Kenobi and Skywalker ultimately succeeded in rescuing Unduli and taking Poggle prisoner.

Post-Geonosis service (22 BBY)
As they prepared to take Poggle back to Coruscant, Damien & Mundi received a transmission from Windu on Dantooine. Although Windu's forces had fended off an attack there, they had suffered heavy casualties and were in immediate need of medical supplies from a medical station at Ord Cestus. Damien informed the others, who decided to send Tano and Barriss Offee to pick up the supplies while Damien, Mundi, Kenobi and Unduli took Poggle back to Coruscant to be interrogated. Later, on the Venator-class Star Destroyer making the voyage back to Coruscant, Skywalker informed Damien, Mundi, Kenobi, Unduli and Captain Rex that the ship carrying Tano and Offee has been infected by Geonosian brain worms. Skywalker later interrogated Poggle alone and learned the brain words were susceptible to cold temperatures. When Mundi asked Skywalker how he convinced Poggle to talk, the Jedi Knight declined to answer, and Damien was aware that Skywalker used violent methods to achieve his means. After that day Damien & Mundi developed a strong Friendship.

Battle of Ryloth (22 BBY)
After answering a plea from the Senate, the Jedi Council sent Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano to breach the heavy Separatist blockade around the planet of Ryloth so as to make way for a ground assault aimed at freeing the Twi'lek people from Separatist occupation.

When the initial engagement with the blockade proved unsuccessful, resulting in huge losses on the side of the Republic, Master Windu and Damien Knights warned Skywalker that he was allocated only a single planetary rotation of Ryloth to breach the blockade, as the invasion needed to move forward with or without having broken the Separatist's defenses. Windu told Skywalker that they would have to postpone the invasion. As such, Skywalker and Tano utilized less than conventional tactics to defeat the Separatist warships; making way for the forces led by Masters Windu and Kenobi to begin their ground assault of the oppressed planet.

Kenobi and Ghost Company set off to land at the village of Nabat, which the Jedi planned on using as a landing point. However, proton cannons from below attacked their Acclamator assault ships above, and after Clone Commander Pondsreported that the guns were breaking through their shields, Windu ordered Kenobi to get the hostages out of harm's way, destroy the guns and allow the transports to land. Kenobi was later successful, and after the transports landed, the Jedi and the clone troopers set off for the capital city of Lessu to retake it and free the planet.

Damien and Windu along with Commander Ponds, Lightning Squadron, and the rest of his troops and AT-TEs, despite Separatist forces trying to slow their forces. Windu told Chancellor Palpatine and Senator Orn Free Taa that their forces were stretched too thin for an all out attack on Lessu. To accomplish this, Damien and Windu were forced to rely on their considerable negotiation skills, as they knew they would require the aid of Cham Syndulla; leader of the Twi'lek freedom fighters. However, Syndulla loathed to negotiate with the Republic as he did not trust Ryloth's Senator Orn Free Taa, while Taa himself feared that Syndulla planned to seize power. After learning that the Separatists had begun to bomb innocent Twi'lek villages, Syndulla at least agreed to talk with Senator Taa.

Windu acted as moderator during the talks, and ultimately was able to form an alliance between the two out of their mutual wish to see their people free. Syndulla then added his forces to Windu's and the pair managed to retake Lessu from Tambor. In addition, Damien and Windu managed to capture the fiendish Separatist leader. Damien and Windu, alongside commander Ponds, watched the victory parade in the city in satisfaction.

=== Juma 9 and Battle of Behpour (22 BBY) === Shortly afterwards, Damien Knights and Mace Windu were sent to Juma 9 in order to rescue Jedi Masters Plo Koon and Obi-Wan Kenobi with the aid of Kit Fisto and clone private CP-6824, while Commander Ponds fought on the outside of the station itself.

They eventually took over the station once more from droid control and the three Jedi were rescued. Shortly after that, the three Jedi held a briefing with Luminara Unduli, Aayla Secura, Yoda, Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano who were on Alzoc III, Coruscant and Ryloth respectively. They learned from Masters Unduli and Secura that a Separatist ship crashed on Alzoc III and an unknown thief had infiltrated the ship and stole a device that could prove deadly. In addition, they reported that they had encountered Asajj Ventress.

During the briefing, they received an urgent communication from Senator Amidala who stated that she had discovered a massive Separatist facility on Behpour under the command of the Sith Lord Count Dooku. Unfortunately, she could say no more as she was captured. The Jedi, before breaking communication, organized an attack on the foundry.

With Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi diverting attention to themselves in one part of the facility, Damien, Windu, and Padawan Tano waited for the shields to the facility to be taken down to allow the Jedi and their forces to attack and invade the factory. Once the shields were down, Damien, Windu, and Tano led the charge and struck at the facility after using AT-TE walkers to get there quicker.

Once inside the facility itself, Damien, Windu, and Kenobi confronted Dooku himself. After a brief conversation and eliminating his personal guards, the three dueled Dooku. At the end of the duel, Dooku fell below the platform. Damien remarked he was gone but Windu said he was not dead. With that, they boarded the Twilight and left the facility. Soon after, Skywalker, Tano and the freed Amidala joined them.

Battle of Malastare (22 BBY)
Damien and Windu later led Republic forces during the Battle of Malastare alongside Anakin Skywalker, pushing to drive Separatist forces out of the system and secure a treaty with the Dugs that would grant them access to their valuable fuel. At some point during the Malastare campaign, Dr. Sionver Boll developed an electro-proton bomb that would wipe out all electronic life but leave living organisms fully functional. They tested the technology out with outstanding results, although the resulting explosion site collapsed into a crater. Damie and Windu led the investigation squad into the crater, and was the first to discover the presence of the Zillo Beast, a creature long thought to be extinct by the Dugs.

Leading his troops in a quick retreat aboard a gunship, Windu organized an impromptu council with himself, Damien, Skywalker, Boll, Doge Nakha Urus and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to discuss their options in dealing with the creature. While the Jedi were in favor of preserving the beast's innocent life, the Dugs merely wished to see the dangerous creature destroyed forever. Taking the discussion to a private area away from Urus, Palpatine suggested that concentrated stun beams should be used to incapacitate the beast, leading the Dugs to believe it dead, and then transport it somewhere in the Outer Rim for research on its lightsaber-resistant scales. Damien, Windu, and Skywalker agreed with the plan, although Urus had already begun his own mission to dump toxic fuels into the beast's crater to kill it. Despite Damien and Windu's threats towards Urus, the argument between the pair was negated when the beast clambered out of the pit and began to terrorize the Republic camps. It was brought down by the stun rays and, in a last-minute switch of orders from Palpatine, transported to Coruscant for research.

Damien, Windu, and Skywalker followed the beast to Coruscant, where the former approached Kenobi in the hopes of starting a movement against the Supreme Chancellor and demanding the release of the creature. Although Kenobi was able to convince Skywalker and Senator Amidala to speak to Palpatine, they were too late, and the zillo beast escaped from its constraints, making a beeline towards the Senate chambers. Windu, alongside Damien, Kenobi, Yoda, and Aayla Secura as well as Captain Rex, oversaw the Republic's defense of Coruscant against the beast, commanding stun tanks to subdue the beast. Despite Windu's best efforts, the beast was unable to be peacefully tranquilized, and it was killed by concentrated toxin-bombs.

Battle of Dantooine (21 BBY)
During the Clone Wars, Damien and Mace Windu commanded Systems Army Alpha with Damien being a Senior Jedi General and Mace Windu as a High Jedi General along with the 187th Legion on many fronts, and won a widely publicized victory at the Battle of Dantooine.

Damien and Windu single-handedly defeated an army of B2 super battle droids and a massive seismic tank, using their bare fists for much of the battle when they lost their lightsabers in the tank's initial blast. Damien and Windu later regained their lightsabers, and leaped onto a part of the tank, cut their way inside, battled the droids and destroyed the tank from within. Drawings made by a young boy at the scene would later be used as anti-Imperial propaganda during the Galactic Civil War.

Battle of Brentaal IV (21 BBY)
With the Clone Wars begun, Damien accompanied his Jedi friend Agen Kolar who was made a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic. Ever a follower of the Council's will and a strong believer in the Jedi's duty to the Republic, he disdained those Jedi who opposed the decision to take an active role in the war. When Mace Windu discovered that the esteemed lightsaber instructor Sora Bulq had fallen to the dark side and joined Dooku's growing ranks of Separatist-allied Dark Acolytes, he warned Damien and Kolar of the betrayal and Bulq's history with Vaapad.

Five months into the war, Damien and Agen Kolar were assigned to retake Brentaal IV, a Core World located at a key hyperspace transit point, from an insurrection led by local clan leader Shogar Tok. Damien and Kolar, under the command of Jedi Council members Plo Koon and Shaak Ti, landed their clone troops on the planet, but the Republic's intelligence was faulty; Tok's ion cannons were operational and shielded, tearing the Republic landing force to pieces. A quarter of the overall forces, along with Jedi General Shon Kon Ray, were lost almost immediately. Damien and Kolar were hard-pressed, though they retained many of their soldiers.

Ti found sanctuary in a prison, where she recruited several prisoners to aid her in infiltrating Tok's fortress via a sewer connection between the two facilities. In order to help her accomplish that, she ordered Damien and Kolar to lead an assault on the north face of Tok's citadel. Once she was inside, Koon, commanding the Republic fleet in orbit of Brentaal IV, would retreat and return in four hours, by which time she hoped to have sabotaged the defenses or captured Tok. Damien and Kolar, on the surface, were given the option to retreat or surrender.

When that time came, Damien and Kolar surrendered, along with their troops. They were brought before Tok and the holographic presence of Dooku, who interrogated them as to Ti's whereabouts. Kolar briefly resisted, earning him a beating at Tok's hands, before he testified that he had felt her die in battle through the Force. Damien and Kolar were imprisoned while Tok's forces searched for her body. There they remained until Ti succeeded, at which point their troops were freed by two of her recruited prisoners: Kolar's old ally, Jedi Master Quinlan Vos; and the mercenary Sagoro Autem. Ti was badly wounded after a betrayal by one prisoner, though, and Damien and Kolar took command on the ground in the aftermath while Ti recuperated in a bacta tank.

Battle of Haruun Kal (21 BBY)
The Haruun Kal Crisis began six months after the battle of Geonosis with the dispatching of Senior Jedi Councilman Mace Windu and Senior Jedi General Damien Knights to their home planet of Haruun Kal. A holovid recovered by the Republic had shown Master Depa Billaba, who had been dispatched by the Council to train the Korunnai natives against the Separatist-backed Balawai settlers, in a state of what appeared to be bloodthirsty insanity. Billaba had been sent to the planet because although its location was of strategic importance for trade, the Republic was not yet ready to commit to a full offensive against the world. After surviving an assassination attempt orchestrated by a treasonous Republic agent and journeying upcountry to confront Billaba, Damien and Mace led the Korunnai troops, in concert with clone reinforcements under the command of CRC-09/571from the Republic transport Halleck, against the Balawai militia.

They moved against the capital city of Pelek Baw and using an ingenious strategy that combined sneaking in transports down the path of a waterfall, eventually managed to corner Balawai militia Colonel Lorz Geptun. Despite a last-minute betrayal by a number of elite Korunnai soldiers led by the dark Korunnai Kar Vastor, Windu forced Geptun to surrender the system and shut down attacking droids. This victory came at a heavy cost, however, as Billaba fell into a possibly self-induced coma at the end of the battle from which it was believed she never recovered.

Battle of Iceberg III (21 BBY)
During the 2nd Battle of Orto Plutonia, General Grievous was making his advance in The Mon Calamari System in order to take over Mon Calamari. After the 2nd Battle of Orto Plutonia, Damien and his forces rushed back to Coruscant for the briefing. Anakin Skywalker and Plo Koon explained that The Mon Calamari provide a special type of ore that strengthens the Republic Cruiser's armor. If Mon Calamari was captured, The Separatists could use that for for themselves. King Yos Kolina who was on Coruscant via hologram explained that Grievous was on the advance and that only 1 planet was left before Grievous's fleet was at Mon Calamari. A frozen planet named Iceberg III. Damien and his forces went with Plo Koon and Commander Wolfe to Iceberg III top stop Grievous's fleet. Damien commanded a star-fighter squadron while Plo Koon's cruisers broke through the blockade.

The Republic forces then began landing on the planet. Commander Wolffe then tasked Damien to pilot a gunship and take some ARC Troopers to defend a Republic base that was established in the early days of The Clone Wars while Commander Wolfee and the rest of his forces marched to the base. After making it through the droid army, Damien and his ARC troopers made a defenses around the base. A few hours later, Commander Wolffe arrived with his forces with some refugees that needed to get off the planet. Plo Koon was space battling Grievous' fleet and provided a temporary opening. While Commander Wolfee, Ghost and Gun evacuated the refugees, Damien and some of his troops made some turrets and waited for Grievous's forces to come.

After several hours of fighting The refugees were evacuated and the droid army was repelled. Grievous then decided to face Damien himself. While Commander Wolffe was cleaning up the mess. Damien told them to stand back while he dealt with Grievous. Grievous and Damien dueld in a ferocious lightsaber duel, but in the end, Damien managed to defeat Grievous. Damien requested that he surrender and never return but Grievous replied saying he would never to surrender to anyone. He then managed to escape in his and retreat. Iceberg III was safe and Grievous's advance was halted. Damien then met with Plo Koon and Commander Wolffe in The Executive hanger. Plo Koon brought bad news with him, during the battle Grievous sent an agent, Riff Tamson to assassinate King Yos Kilina. There was now instability between The Mon Calamari and The Quarren due to the fact that only King Yos Kilina could manage to keep peace between them. Prince Lee Char was next in line for the throne, however, The Quarenn stated that there should be a Quaren King until Lee Char was old enough to rule the throne. Steve and his forces then went back to Coruscant for their next mission.

Becoming a Jedi Sentinel (21 BBY)
Prodigiously talented in the Force, Damien passed the trials early, and continued to progress through the ranks of the order by achieving the title of Jedi Sentinel and, at the remarkably young age of Sixteen. The Council's invitation came after Damien's fight with General Grievous at the Battle of Iceberg III. He eventually rose to be the leader of the Jedi Temple Guards.

Meeting with Mandalorians (21 BBY)
Damien is finally out on his own as a Sentinel doing a mission to protect shipping from Ryloth. All was good, but a frigate, unknown to the Republic at that time came and attacked the shipyards.

Explosions all around, ships sinking down below into the vast space. Damien had to act fast before they could destroy the imports. He blasted at their guns, destroying a few but still was not enough. Damien went straight for the frigate, going through the hanger and almost destroying the entire ship. Damien ran through, noticing the marks on the ship seeing they were centuries old, and Mandolorian. Mandolorians came with the right armor, markings, and weapons.

All fired but missing but Damien was ahead slicing through their armor and their weapons. Finally through waves of Mandolorians, Damien got to the bridge to see a Commander with trophies all around. All ready for a fight he leaves quick, however he notices a self destruct sequence on a terminal when going by. Damien tries to deactivate it but with not enough time he sprints to the hanger and into his ship. He leaves with a swift escape before it explodes. With the shipyards saved and the imports safe, Damien is awarded Sentinel Honor and known for courage and knowledge.

Battle of Kamino (21 BBY)
General Grievous and Assajj Ventress planned to attack Kamino in an effort to stop the production of clones. Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Damien intercepted a transmission of the incoming attack and was sent to fortify it. The attack came and Grievous's vast armada came out of hyperspace to battle the Republic forces in space. Although it appeared that Grievous was not trying to defend his ships and many of them were easily shot down and fell into the ocean. Obi-Wan, Shaak Ti, and Damien who were on the surface noticed that and Obi-Wan went to investigate. Obi-Wan found out that there was a massive army assmebling assault craft and then began attacking the city. Obi-Wan and Anakin dealt with Grievous and Ventress while Shaak Ti defended the command center and Damien battled the droid forces on the roof in an effort to stop the Trident Drills from unloading droids, they managed to successfully drive the droids away by using turrets stationed around the city. Kamino was safe, but the price to defend the city was heavy.

The Malevolence Crisis (21 BBY)
21 BBY, Plo Koon & Damien later led a patrol fleet of three  Venator-class Star Destroyers to discover an unknown Separatist super weapon that had killed many fleets of cruisers and left no survivors. During the  Battle of Abregado, the  Malevolence, commanded by  GeneralGrievous, wiped out his patrol fleet leaving the Kel Dor,  CommanderWolffe,  Sergeant  Sinker and  Boost trapped in an  escape pod. Koon along with Damien and the survivors held off the " Pod Hunter" that destroyed all other pods, and were picked up by Skywalker and Tano in th e  Twilight after Tano, drawing on her close friendship with Master Koon, was able to sense his life force amongst the debris.

Battle of Christophsis (21 BBY)
<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">A few days later Damien was assinged to help defend Christphisis. Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Damien went to the planet to battle its deadly blockade lead By Admiral Trench. However, Anakin attacked to soon and caused his ships to get badly damaged. Then Obi-Wan and Damien arrived. Damien talked to Obi-Wan about using the Stealth Ship and they agreed to use it. Anakin and Admiral Yuleran went down to the surface and destroyed Trench.

<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">Obi-Wan then decided to attack. Damien with his squardon attacked the Separatist fighters while the crusiers sm <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">ashed the blockade. Damien and his squadron atttacked and destroyed A Recusant Destroyer which allowed an opening for the Republic forces. Damien then went down to the surface and defended key Republic posts on Christophisis bu using strategically placed turrets. After defending them Steve was then transferd to Crystal City to help out Obi-Wab and Anakin. After days of fighting The Republic couldn't hold off much longer untill they recived renforcements. However an young padawan came out and said that she was Ahsoka Tano and that she was assigned to Anakin Skywalker. Damien didn't know what to think of this but he kindly welcomed Ahsoka. Soon Whorm Loathsome used a shield to protect his forces. While Anakin and Ahsoka destroyed the generator, Obi-Wan and Damien defended the cannons. The Droids managed to easily overwhel <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">m the clones but Damien and Obi-Wan managed to cut through them.

<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">Damien then lead a rocket launcher squad to take out some Tri Droids. After they took them out Damien noticed the shiled was gone. Damien then redevouzed with Obi-Wan, Anakin and Ahsoka at the city plaza. Master Yoda also arrived on the sence and orders Damien to mop up the remaning droids. After 3 days of fighting, the last of the droids were destroyed an <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">d Damien and his Legion headed back to Corusant while a garrison was stationed on the planet.

Attack Against The Jedi (21 BBY)
<p style="color:rgb(58,58,58);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;"><span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">Master Koon & Damien led Republic forces alongside with Master Fisto, Clone Commander Wolffe and Major Kendal Ozzel on the planet Khorm in a mission to free the enslaved Khormai people. Fighting alongside resistance forces, Koon & Damien were reluctant to sacrifice the clones in a direct assault on a vital strategic mine and therefore decided to destroy the weather-control station to lessen the amount of casualties. On their way up there, Asajj Ventress ambushed them and brought down an avalanche, wounding both Damien & Koon and breaking his left arm. Despite the injury, he still maintained a willingness to continue the mission and eventually faced off against Ventress again. Fighting only with his right arm, Koon was able to withstand Ventress's attacks and ultimately prevented the Dark Jedi from destroying the mine by Force-pushing her detonator away.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;">Later, Koon & Damien took part in the defense of Felucia. On-planet, the Republic forces led by Master Kenobi and Jedi Skywalker were being steadily driven back to the point that it was urgent that they retreat. While Republic starships engaged Separatist cruisers, Damien led fighters down to the planet to provide a means of transport off-world. After the successful retreat, Plo Koon sat in on the High Council meeting and heard of Ahsoka Tano's reckless actions during the battle. The Council quickly decided that the Padawan needed time away from the battlefield and would benefit from acting as a guard of the Jedi Archives for a time. Following Cad Bane's break in, Koon was present in hologram form within one of the Temple's comm centers when General Grievous transmitted a message, gloating to the Jedi over his capture of Councilor Eeth Koth. While the Jedi discussed battle plans, Commander Wolffe reported to the Jedi Master that he had found a series of hand codes that Koth had planted on the recorded transmission. Reporting on these findings, the Council dispatched Masters Gallia, Kenobi, and Jedi Skywalker to rescue Koth and return him to the Temple from the Saleucami system. <h3 style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;">The Hunt For Boba Fett (21 BBY) <p style="color:rgb(255,252,252);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> Following the sabotage of the Endurance by Boba Fett, Damien was briefing the High Council in a data room within the Jedi Temple when the astromech droid R2-D2 interupted with a message. Playing a hologram which showed that Mace Windu and Skywalker were badly wounded and stranded on Vanqor, Damien and Padawan Ahsoka Tano left for the planet to rescue the two Jedi. Following the rescue mission, the Temple received a message from Aurra Sing, the bounty hunter holding a group of Republic soldiers hostage, warning them to come and find them. Once more accompanied by Tano, Damien descended into the  Coruscant Underworld  looking for  Jango Fett 's old compatriots in order to track down Sing. <span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);">After a string of unsuccessful bar investigations, Tano discovered that Sing had recently killed her companion  Castas<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);"> on  Florrum<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);">. Despite being forced to fight their way out of the establishment, she and Damien had a solid lead and made a beeline for the planet. When they arrived, they were greeted by  Hondo Ohnaka<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);">, who warned them of a trap inside. Damien went first, to find Aurra <span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);">Sing at a table. Damien sat down, and Fett came in behind him and pulled a gun on him. He was surprised to find him there, and not Windu, but was even more surprised when Tano came and held her lightsaber to Sing's throat. Sing kicked the table at Damien, and shot at Tano, who blocked it. Sing dashed away, and Tano chased after. Fett tried to escape, but Damien caught him. He asked Fett where the hostages were, but he refused to answer. Damien brought him to Ohnaka, who convinced him to reveal the information. Transmitting the information to his Padawan companion, Damien was able to see the hostages freed,  Bossk<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);"> and Fett captured, and  Aurra Sing<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);"> go down to her "death" in the  Slave I<span style="line-height:23px;color:rgb(255,255,255);">. He then brought Fett back to Coruscant and put in the prison there. Damien <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-size:11px;line-height:0px;">  <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">was present at the Temple when  Delta Squad<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;"> brought back the remains of  Master Halsey<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;"> and his Padawan  Knox<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;"> from the  massacre<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;"> on  Devaron<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">. Damien surmised that there was <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;"> a new  threat<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">, possibly a newly apointed  Sith Lord<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">. <h3 style="color:rgb(255,252,252);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">Deployed to Umbara (21 BBY) Damien was deployed to Umbara after the actual battle was over. A few weeks after General Pong Krellhad been killed, more Seperatist and Umbaran forces had been discovered by Republic spies. Damien was part of the task force sent to clear them out. By this time Damien was ready to leave Umbara. He had been there for months. But then he sensed something through the Force. It was just the smallest tremor, but he knew it couldn't be ignored. So he went on yet another search. What he found stunned him and he could not believe he had not seen it before. It looked like an Ancient Sith Academy. The entry was surprisingly easy. There was a Holocron-shaped socket in the door. Luckily, he was carrying the Sith Holocron he had stolen form a Sith a while back. He inserted it and he was in.

He could not believe what was inside. There were hundreds of Sith Acolytes. However, he could tell they were not very well trained, because he made surprisingly quick work of them. He happened to venture onto a room where he met a training droid. Each time he would defeat one, another would come out. After defeating four, he continued on. Soon enough he met a Sith named Varad Zagg. He made fairly quick work of him as well. Around a couple more corners, he saw him. Darth Maulwas standing in a room not very far away. He could sense that Maul had sensed him. He started walking toward the room. He had a very bad feeling about this.

Darth Maul was obviously ready, because he came running full speed at Damien. He barely had any time to react. But he could tell Maul was not as ready as he thought. He lunged with his lightsaber toward Damien's neck, but Damien caught him by surprise. He grabbed Maul's wrist and twisted it. Maul's lightsaber fell right out of his hand and right next to Damien's foot. Perfect. He used Force Lightning and caught Maul by surprise once again. He then shoved Darth Maul into a small lava pool and got away through a secret door he had noticed when he got in. Darth Maul would have to defeat him another time. Darth Maul already had his lightsaber activated. Larsonator stared into his eyes. He activated his twin Mestare lightsabers. The fight had begun. It was the most intense fight Damien had ever been in. He called upon the Force to help him react as quick as he needed to. He could tell Maul was getting worn out. But then Maul ran to the end of the room, and Savage Opressstepped out of the shadows. Damien knew he had to defeat him as quick as possible so Maul could not fully regain his strength. But Opress proved more powerful than Damien had anticipated. But he became tired very quickly and started fighting very recklessly through his anger. Before Damien could be defeated, he used Emerald Lightning and immobilized Opress. Soon Maul regained his strength and the two dueled in life threatening battle.Then Damien gained the upper hand due to his Lightning being stronger than Maul's and defeated Maul and left the Sith Temple victoriously with his life. He then made a report to the High Council and they were all proud of him.

Mission to the Rig (21 BBY)
In the aftermath of the Battle of Null, the Jedi Council learned that a bounty had been posted on the Jedi, and that members of the Crimson Nova bounty hunters guild were attempting to collect. Rather than have his Jedi be targets on and off the battlefield, Mace Windu assembled a team of the most powerful Jedi available—Jedi Sentinel Damien Knights and Jedi Masters Kit Fisto, Saesee Tiin and Agen Kolar and infiltrated the Crimson Nova headquarters on The Rig space station.

Windu's team successfully breached The Rig's security. Damien and Windu remained fully visible to the bounty hunters, deflecting attention from the other Jedi. Kolar posed as Argent Kole, a bounty hunter looking to collect credits for his "captive", Kit Fisto. While Fisto incited riots among the prisoners, Tiin, in the guise of a smuggler, set off an explosion in the hangar bays.

With The Rig in turmoil, the Jedi executed their show of force, fighting their way into the command center and ensuring the deaths of the guild leaders. The bounties were rescinded, and the originator, Kh'aris Fenn, was later executed by Damien Knights.

<h3 style="color:rgb(255,252,252);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);line-height:23px;">Battle of Foerost (20 BBY) Early in 20 BBY, The Techno Union had captured Foerost in order to use its vast shipyards to their advantage. However, The Victory Fleet blockaded the planet to ensure no Separatists weapons left the planet. However, The Techno Union planned to break the blockade with their newest weapon: The Bulwark Battlecruiser. The Techno Union sent 9 of there newest weapons to break the blockade. The Victory Fleet engaged the Bulwark cruisers and were taking heavy losses quickly due to the Bulwark's Superiority. Steve's fleet happened to be in the system and The Victory fleet requested help. Damien and Ki-Adi-Mundi set course for Foerost. Once they got there they immediately opened fire on The Bulwark Cruiser. Steve ordered The Executive Crew Men to activate all weapons and destroy the nearest Bulwark Cruiser. The Bulwark cruiser was destroyed in seconds. The Separatist Commander, Dua Ningo decided that his ships couldn't last to long so he ordered his ships to escape. What was left of The Bulwark fleet escaped. Foerost was safe and this was one of the most important battles during the year and it would fire up The Outer Rim Sieges.

Battle of Alderaan (20 BBY)
Shortly after The Battle of Foerost, General Grievous massed his forces for an assault on Alderaan. Bail Organa pleaded to the Senate for a Republic fleet to help defend his planet. Damien and Ki-Adi-Mundi agreed to help defend Alderaan. Damien was in charge of defending Alderaan on the surface incase any droidships got through. Grievous arrived and attacked Alderaan. Both sides took heavy losses. The Executive and The Invisible Hand boarded and Damien and Grievous dueled once again. But this battle was a standstill between the two. The droid fleet managed to send several landing craft down to the surface. Damien warned Ki-Adi-Mundi of the incoming attack and Mundi ordered the planetary batteries to open fire on the landing craft. Many landing craft were shot down. However a few managed to land the droids onto the surface but they were quickly destroyed by Mundi and his troops. Eventually Grievous decided his forces were taking too much damage and ordered a retreat. Bail Organa thanked Damien and Mundi and both gave them medals to honor their service as well as all the other clone troops that fought during the battle. Alderaan was safe and this was one of the most important battles during the year and it would fire up The Outer Rim Sieges.

<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;">Battle of Cerea (20 BBY)
Cerea, being a paradise world, was invaded by the Confederacy. With many civilians being killed, the Republic launched a counter-attack to prevent more losses. Led by Jedi General's, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Damien Knights.

However, the battle lasted for a month, with Republic and Separatist forces firing back at one another. As the battle progressed, many civilians were killed, including the whole of Mundi's family. Mundi then ordered walkers of Cannon Company to destroy Separatist artillery so that the troops could breach the left flank and destroy the main Separatist supply depot. Damien and his forces managed to destroy several Droid Army outposts. The Republic fleet, meanwhile was able to destroy a large percentage of the enemy fleet, causing it to retreat. The battle ended when Bo-Ro-Tara was assassinated by Gossam Commandos, resulting in a Republic victory. Mundi, meanwhile, grieved for his family, knowing that it would haunt him as the war continued.

Battle of Boz Pity (20 BBY)
After Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered a Separatist presence on the planet of Boz Pity the forces of the Republic engaged the Separatists on the planet's surface after a crash landing, led by Jedi Generals; Mace Windu and Damien Knights foremost among them. With Kit Fisto, Anakin Skywalker, Saesee Tiin, Kenobi and Senator Bail Organa, they targeted the Separatist's medical facility. Master Soon Bayts was in the first wave with his clones, and was killed by General Grievous, though Alpha-17was merely impaled and survived the injury. Damien and Windu witnessed this and then dropped a STAP on the General, disabling him for the duration of the battle.

Count Dooku left the medical center, but was attacked by Damien and Windu. After a brief bout of indecisive swordplay, Dooku had two of his MagnaGuards grapple the Jedi Master and drag him into a pit. Dooku himself headed for the evacuation point, rescuing the badly damaged Grievous and leaving Ventress for dead.

The blockade apparently retreated or was dispersed following the victory of the battle.

Duel on Saleucami (19 BBY)
Damien is told Quinlan Vos and Aayla Secura have disappeared, and that the Jedi Watchmen are looking for them throughout Saleucami. Damien later arrives in Saleucami just in time to save Quinlan from the Sora Bulq.

Bulq prepared for a showdown, intent on driving Damien to the dark side. However, at that moment Tholme revealed himself once more, having faked death. He intervened on Damien's side, engaging Bulq, who lost his shoto when he hurled it to activate the room's lockdown sequence. Bulq furiously battled Tholme, whose continued sabotage had become a powerful irritant—especially considering that Bulq had once saved him from death—and caused him to attempt to draw out the duel with Tholme and prolong the Jedi spymaster's death for his own catharsis. Bulq wounded Tholme in the leg, leaving him vulnerable on the floor, but Damien killed his opponent, Skorr, in time to block Bulq's killing strike. Bulq turned to dueling Damien, still attempting to drive him to the dark side and against Tholme with Dooku's aid. As Damien struggled with the dark side and turned inside to confront his own darkness with Secura and Tholme's mental support, Bulq easily gained the advantage over Damien. As Damien knelt, Bulq rushed in behind him, lightsaber upraised for the killing strike. At that moment, however, Damien conquered his inner darkness and turned, rising and striking Bulq across the chest. Bulq collapsed as Dooku watched his lieutenant die.

Battle of Coruscant (19 BBY)
Towards the end of the Clone Wars General Grievous orchestrated a surprise attack on Coruscant itself. During the battle Damien and Mace Windu piloted their personal ship around the capital and destroyed huge numbers of the Separatist's forces. However, they were eventually forced to abandon their craft and took control of a droid ship; using it to take down several of its fellows.

After this, Damien and Windu apparently dueled Grievous himself atop a moving train and defeated the notorious cyborg; knocking him from the train. Damien and Windu subsequently joined Yoda and aided him to hold the Republic's line against the masses of Separatist battle droids. The three highest ranking members among the Order soon began to question why Grievous had launched such an attack without trying to capture the Jedi Temple or the Senate. It soon became clear that he had orchestrated the attack as a ruse to hide his true objective; the capture of Chancellor Palpatine.

Grievous successfully captured Palpatine, though before he tried to take the captive Chancellor back to his ship, the Invisible Hand, he was confronted by Damien Knights. Using Force Crush, Damien devastated Grievous' armor and organs (the lungs in particular). This accounts for the coughing fits the cyborg would face during the end of his life. Force Crush is one of the darkest Force maneuvers known to the Jedi, and perhaps even the Sith, so Damien's use of such a dark mutilation was most unusual. However, the general survived and escaped with Palpatine; though Kenobi and Skywalker would ultimately rescue him, and kill Count Dooku himself.

Great Jedi Purge/Order 66 (19 BBY)
As the Clone Wars reached its conclusion, Palpatine gave a secret top-priority command to his clone troops, Order 66, commanding the clones to assassinate their Jedi commanders. Damien was training, away from his Jedi peers, when the order was given, though he did see other Jedi die. Damien killed the clones assigned to execute him, keeping one alive just long enough to learn what had happened. Then he fled, attempting to reach other Jedi, hearing from none, sensing none.

Believing himself the only Jedi to have survived, Damien made his way back to his homeworld of Haruun Kal, once again taking up his heritage and donning the jungle outfit of a Korunnai, and became a war leader of several Korunnai clans. Damien led these clans against opposing settlements that had encroached on Korrunal lands, while at the same time silently preparing for his own private war against the Galactic Empire. Damien's leadership and skills, honed in the Clone Wars, did much to reverse the losses the Korunnai had suffered since the death of his father. The Korunnai became a feared fighting force again, reclaiming land they believed was rightfully theirs.

Exile & Journey's (18 BBY)
After the deaths of many Jedi Masters Damien went into exile. Before going, Damien went to Felucia where he saw Shaak Ti, after feeling her presence. Damien was relieved to see one of his friends alive and well. Shaak Ti told Damien that he was already preparing to be a master and had the potential of one, thus didn't need anymore training. Accepting her words Damien departed, thanking her for the training she had given him. He would then leave, then to officially go into exile on the planet of Quarzite, where he met Krismo Sodi and the Kage Warriors. There he sparred with Krismo Sodi in Martial Arts and surprisingly defeated him. The young group of Warriors would all live peacefully on Quarzite, where Damien took the time in training his Kage Warriors, along with Krismo Sodi, teaching them new how to weild the Electro-Sword in an unorthodox reverse grip technique. Using an ancient Force ability, Damien would cloak their presence to prevent them from being found by Imperial Forces and spies. However, Damien would be one of the most wanted Jedi in the Galactic Empire. Thousands of wanted posters were placed across the galaxy in order to find him, but he would never be found by Sidous or Vader. One reason was because Damien killed any Imperial Stormtrooper who came close to finding him and hid their bodies in many planets across the galaxy.

Aing-Tii Monks (5 BBY)
Damien set out on his travels in 5 BBY, taking a leave of absence from the Kage Warriors. Over the course of his long journeys, Damien sought out many different Force-using orders. Early in his journey, he penetrated the Kathol Rift to visit the Aing-Tii, experts in the manipulation of time and space who viewed the Force as a rainbow of many gradations rather than being divided into a light and dark side. Admitted to study among them, Damien learned from Tadar'Ro—one of their number who had previously interacted with Jorj Car'das, a reclusive information broker and the only prior Human student admitted among the Aing-Tii. Tadar'Ro, communicating through a device that translated the pheromones Aing-Tii used to express themselves, taught him Aing-Tii powers of teleportation, as well as flow-walking, a technique to experience the past or future by projecting oneself into it. The young Korun learned swiftly, easily understanding the Aing-Tii's complex approach to the Force. He hoped that he could use this power to alter the past and save all his Jedi companions from Oder 66, but he was devastated to learn that he could only experience the past, not change it. Damien critiqued the Aing-Tii's multifaceted understanding of the Force, and his challenges earned the Aing-Tii's displeasure. Over the ages, the Aing-Tii had accumulated many relics in a cave they called the Embrace. In accordance with their beliefs, they had to gather the Force-strong artifacts, but could not touch them. As an unbeliever, Damien was allowed to contact them, and spent some time in the Embrace exploring the various relics. When he touched a powerful artifact known as the Codex, he experienced a significant amplification of his powers.

Baran Do Sages (4 BBY)
In 4 BBY, Damien began studying among the Baran Do Sages on Dorin. Master of the Baran Do Order Koro Ziil personally tutored Damien in their techniques, which specialized in the use of the Force to manipulate electricity, extend the senses, apprehend danger Kel Dor Martial Arts, and keep oneself from detection. Damien began with weather-detection techniques, but wanted to move on to more esoteric abilities. Within only three days, he mastered the ayna-seff variation of the hassat-durr family of talents, which involved manipulation of the body's electromagnetic field. Solo, in turn, gave Ziil practice in lightsaber sparring. He finished his sojourn after completing his time with the Baran Do. While, studying documents he had brought along, he learned about the Rebels and decided to seek them out.

Joining The Rebellion (3 BBY)
<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);">Before the Battle of Hoth, Damien volunteered to help the Rebellion to end the Empire's long terror of fear and darkness. While helping the Rebellion, he never revealed himself as a Jedi. Even though he has been in Battles during the Clone Wars as a young Jedi many times, he was able to express his experience advice's and help to help them. During his experience with the Rebellion, he was able to meet the two secret siblings of Anakin Skywalker, Luke and Leia.

Battle of Endor (4 ABY)
Damien fought alongside the Ewoks and the Rebel soldiers against stormtroopers. Damien was able to fend off AT-ST's troubling the Stormtroopers and giving an advantage to the Rebels. One took a shot at a group of Rebels and Ewoks, which failed since Damien used the Force to stop the blast and absorb it, only to release a powerful blast of Emerald Lightning straight to the AT-ST disintegrating it completely. He then Force crushed several AT-ST's and helped Chewbacca and an Ewok take control of one. Ambling to dismantle the door to the shield generator, three Rebel Soldiers guarded the place while Damien, Han Solo, and Leia Organa with several troopers entered the place. After a successful break in into the bunker, the bombs were set and the shield generator was destroyed. A few minutes later the second Death Star was destroyed. After the destruction of the Death Star, Coruscant went into cheers upon the death of Palpatine, as to leading the creation of the New Republic. Its creation became a great moment in galactic history, as to time where the Sith had been defeated, but peaceful times were not meant to last.

New Jedi Order (11 ABY)
Years later a time came, where it brought great joy to Damien, due to the fact that Luke Skywalker had now finally established the New Jedi Order. After receiving this news Damien and his family now knew that the Jedi had officially returned. Just like Obi-wan told Luke, he told Damien that they were no longer the old, they were now the new. Understanding this Damien would help Luke rebuild the Order, as to even making a Praxeum on Yavin 4. There Damien alongside his friend Luke Skywalker, took the role as the first Masters of the Order. As a Jedi who has been through many Battles in the Clone Wars Damien became the Jedi Battlemaster and Master of the Order.

Master of the Order Trials (12-15 ABY)
After the creation of the New Jedi Order in 11 BBY, in that same year, Yoda appeared to Damien, while he was training Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn. Yoda told him that he was on the verge of become a Master of the Order, but to achieve the title, he had to do a few trials. Doing so, Damien participated in the trails, which took three years. Then in 15 ABY, Damien was given the title of Master of the Order, and also, the second of all Korunnai (with Mace Windu being the first). As Master of the Order, Damien became the Leader of the Jedi Temple Guard once more.

Yuuzhan Vong War (25 ABY-29 ABY)
In the years prior to the Yuuzhan Vong War, Damien continued to train Jedi, and spent some of his own time teaching Kyle Katarn Form VI: Niman and to successfully cleave through cortosis ore with a lightsaber. In 25 ABY, the New Jedi Order faced its greatest challenge to date. Without the governance of a Jedi Council, the new Jedi Knights lacked unity and focus. Many were accused of reckless vigilantism, and the Republic citizenry began to grow suspicious of their protectors. Worse came the Yuuzhan Vong, extragalactic alien invaders bent on conquest. The Jedi became the first line of defense for the Republic, but their failure to repulse the brutal aliens was widely reported. Incidents like the Battle of Osarian and the Battle of Ithor caused the Senate and the public to oppose the Jedi. Strangely, the Yuuzhan Vong did not exist in the Force, and thus the Jedi were robbed of their most powerful abilities against this new enemy. It raised fundamental problems for the Jedi, who wondered if the problem was with the Yuuzhan Vong, the Force, or the Jedi themselves. Damien was inclined to believe that the problem was with the Jedi, as his own training had been rushed.undefined

Early during the invasion the Yuuzhan Vong chose to attack the defenseless planet Artorias. Just as they were about to break into a hangar and kill the refugees, Damien arrived and defeated the Yuuzhan Vong allowing those in the hangar to escape. Damien than recruited the Prince of Artorias Finn Galfridian into the Jedi Order after noticing that he was Force-sensitive.undefinedDuring Galfridian's early training on Yavin IV, Damien prevented a Tuk'ata from attacking Galfridian, Jacen, Jaina and Anakin when the younger Jedi investigated the cave that it inhabited. In later discussion with Masters Kyp Durron and Lar Le'Ung he opposed the use of using Galfridian as a weapon against the Yuuzhan Vong, saying that Finn's training couldn't be rushed like his own was. However, when word came that the planet Rychel was being attacked, he decided that it would be beneficial to take Galfridian with him in order to see his reaction. Damien, Master Le'Ung and Finn went to the planet Rychel and Damien fought off attacking warriors. During the battle Master Le'Ung was killed by a Yuuzahn Vong commander. While the evacuation ships were taking off, Luke witnessed a confrontation between Finn and the Yuuzahn Vong who killed Master Le'Ung. Although Finn had the opportunity to kill the warrior he chose instead to spare him in the hopes that he would learn compassion. Damien was proud of Finn and consoled him over the death of Le'Ung.undefinedThe Yuuzhan Vong took specific interest in the Jedi, proclaiming them the worst of a galaxy full of infidels.

After the Battle of Duro, which saw Jacen Solo defeat Warmaster Tsavong Lah in a duel to rescue his mother, Lah announced that peace could be maintained if the galaxy would turn in every single Jedi to the Yuuzhan Vong. Many in the New Republic began to turn against the Jedi in an effort to appease the Yuuzhan Vong and blunt their destructive invasion. Organizations such as the Peace Brigade betrayed the Order, and began rounding up Jedi captives for the invaders. The Yuuzhan Vong then destroyed the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4, killing Master Ikrit and shaping Tahiri Veila in the process, which forced young Jedi initiates into exile. It was as if the dark times of Palpatine's Empire had returned. Headstrong Jedi like Kyp Durron called for aggressive actions to counter the Yuuzhan Vong threat. Durron attracted a large number of Jedi candidates to work independently, a move which divided the Jedi Order deeply. Damien knew that fear and too aggressive a path would lead his Jedi to the dark side. Instead of an aggressive counter offensive, Damien called for the help of Han and Leia, engineering an underground fugitive network, dubbed the Great River, and two secret havens called the Shelter and Eclipse Station, to protect the beleaguered Jedi Knights.

Leading from the front (25 ABY)
With their plan to capture every single Jedi having failed and with Kyp Durron having tricked the New Republic military to destroy a new worldship, the Yuuzhan Vong declared the truce broken. Soon after came the voxyn threat, which proved even more lethal than the Peace Brigade. After conducting a vote on Eclipse Station, Damien approved the launch of the Mission to Myrkr. Meanwhile, in the Senate on Coruscant, the turning point of the Jedi came when Borsk Fey'lya openly pledged his home system to support the Jedi in order to counter Nom Anor's demand. At the same time, Damien successfully united Kyp Durron, Saba Sebatyne and their squadrons with the Jedi Order by promising that the Jedi would carry the war to the Yuuzhan Vong. Returning to the front line, Damien led half the Jedi and most of the Masters in the galaxy to rescue the hostages in Talfaglio's orbit. With the combined strength of Saber Squadron, Shocker Squadron, the Wild Knights, the Kyp's Dozen, and New Republic reinforcements, the Jedi swiftly defeated the Yuuzhan Vong fleet and rescued almost everyone, with the bonus of capturing a yammosk. Together with Borsk Fey'lya, Damien used the stunning victory to turn the tide against the anti-Jedi faction in the Senate and earn the New Republic military's official support and cooperation with Jedi activities.

After the fall of Reecee, Damien attempted to capture a living yammosk when Booster Terrik lured an enemy fleet to Eclipse Station. The plan failed, as Tsavong Lah had instructed his subordinates to destroy any yammosk which was threatened to fall into the Jedi's hands. Next, Damien led the Jedi to take part in a nine hundred ship task force which crippled the staging Yuuzhan Vong fleet in the Black Bantha Nebula and saw to the capture of a living yammosk.

When the tide seemed to finally favor the Jedi, the Force once again shifted to nightmarish darkness with a series of developments: the death of Anakin Solo on Myrkr, the leak of Eclipse Station's coordinates, the fall of Coruscant, and the near-successful kidnapping of Ben by the Kuati traitor Viqi Shesh.

Despite joining forces with General Wedge Antilles' Fleet Group Three, the Jedi were still hopelessly outnumbered by Tsavong Lah's invasion fleet. While the Jedi destroyed several enemy yammosks and Lah's flagship, the Sunulok, the Jedi starfighter wing also paid a heavy price. Damien was shot down in his X-Wing when He attempted to recover the kidnapped Ben. When Lando and YVH 1-1A took over to recover the baby, Luke led Mara and Artoo to defend Coruscant with a surface turbolaser battery. The trio escaped the doomed Coruscant aboard the Falcon. Thankfully, Lando was able to rescue Ben and Threepio from Viqi Shesh, though the treacherous Kuati escaped.

Accompanied by Wedge's fleet group, Damien founded and led Twin Suns Squadron in the recapture of Borleias. Together with his life-long friends, they founded the Insiders to counter the self-declared Chief of State Pwoe and his corrupted Advisory Council. Damien continued to serve the Borleias garrison, through both ground patrols against Yuuzhan Vong resistance forces and space missions as Twin Suns leader until he passed the squadron to Jaina for the needs of psychological warfare. In the depths of the altered city planet, Damien and the others, disguised as Yuuzhan Vong, explored the Vongformed planet. Damien, persuading a devourer tank that he was not food, got the others access to a secret laboratory where they learned the source of the dark side premonitions Damien had received, though at the cost of his black outfit. Tahiri, and Damien faced off against Lord Nyax, the deranged, mutated Dark Jedi who once was Irek Ismaren, pursuing him throughout the city as they tried to stop his plans to release a wellspring of Force energy. Surviving a massive Force battle at the site of the old Jedi Temple, Damien left Coruscant and returned to take over Blackmoon Squadron when Wedge launched Operation Emperor's Spear against former Warmaster Czulkang Lah.

Battlemaster Vs. Warmaster (28 ABY)
<p style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;">Damien received a help call from Jaina Solo and he quickly fled Ebaq 9. While Lah's grutchyna burrowed their way into Jaina Solo's hiding place and his warriors cornered Jacen Solo, he heard the desperate cry of his subaltern as the junior officer realized that Vergere was approaching the moon base in an A-wing starfighter at maximum speed. With a great explosion of plasma, Vergere's starfighter impacted the central mine shaft and sent a fireball sweeping through the moon base's main tunnel. A wave of heat and radiation instantly eliminated many warriors before the fireball sucked all of the oxygen out of the base's tunnels in a matter of seconds. Any Yuuzhan Vong who didn't perish from explosive decompression experienced syncope, dying while unconscious, or embolisms due to lack of air. Lah's entire ground assault force died within minutes of Vergere's suicidal strike. The warmaster passed out, surviving due to the loyalty of his attenders, who placed a gnullith over his face that allowed him to breathe in the absence of oxygen and an ooglith cloaker to mask him against the cold vacuum. In space, Blood Sacrifice detonated in a massive explosion and the remnants of Lah's armada were destroyed to the last warship. The warmaster awoke beneath the corpses of his warriors. Lah thought of the extent of his failure at Ebaq 9 and considered removing his gnullith to suffocate with his dead warriors. As he remembered that Jaina Solo and her comrades were nearby, however, he abandoned the idea of suicide and prepared an arsenal of weapons, before concealing himself beneath the corpses and waiting for his foe to approach. Sure enough, Damien Knights arrived to treat Solo's wounds.

<p style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:23px;"> Tsavong Lah sprang from his hiding place and Attcked Damien, revealing himself to the Jedi. Lah threw immobilizing blorash jelly at Damien's feet, rooting him in place, before hurling his tsaisi like a spear towards Damien shoulder, but Damien cut himself loose and threw the spear back at Lah. Tsavong Lah was free to engage Damien. With a double-handed grip the warmaster bludgeoned at Damien's lightsaber blade in an attempt to beat down the Jedi's defenses. Sebatyne fired at Lah with a blaster but the warrior evaded and returned to the attack. Disarming his opponent, Lah lunged in for Jaina Solo but Damien kicked him in the face and destroyed the front of Lah's radank claw before the warrior could react. The Warmaster flew into a rage and delivered a powerful barrage of attacks that Damien easily evaded. Having levitated her own lightsaber with the Force out of Lah's sight, Solo brought the blade streaking in like a spear and ran it through the Warmaster's throat. Swilja Fenn's prophetic words of two years prior rang true; the Jedi, whom Tsavong Lah had pursued relentlessly since the Battle of Duro, had ultimately proved to be the end of the warrior.

Ending the war (29 ABY)
The Recapture of Coruscant had begun. Damien and the Solo twins fought through the Sacred Precinct, and the team entered the Citadel with Jacen's help. There, Damien led the assault to the top level, slaying warrior after warrior. The Jedi Master became a calm maelstrom of Force energy, surrendering his individual personality to the Force and becoming the embodiment of its will. Neither Jaina nor Jacen were able to perceive their Master as he moved faster then even their Jedi senses could follow, calmly ripping through scores of elite Yuuzhan Vong warriors asDamien's massive power was unleashed. In Shimrra's chamber, Damien and the Solo twins killed several Slayers guarding the Supreme Overlord. Embracing the Unifying Force, Damien used his unique green Electric Judgment for the first time on a Slayer to save Jacen. While Jaina pursued the fleeing Onimi, Shimrra Jamaane knocked out Jacen and engaged the Jedi Master. Struggling against the giant Shimrra, Damien failed to leap out of Shimrra's attacking range while Shimrra's Scepter of Power wrapped itself around Damien. As Damien held back the amphistaff, Shimrra deflected Jacen's saber throwand attempted to slay Luke with Anakin Solo's lightsaber. Damien released his hold on the Scepter to push away Shimrra's wrist and was bitten by the staff. When Shimrra prepared to strike the death blow, Damien Force pulled Anakin's lightsaber into his hand, slashed the amphistaff into pieces with his own blade, and beheaded Shimrra with the cross of the lightsabers.

Unable to fight anymore, Damien sent Jacen to rescue Jaina. Fortunately, after the battle, Jacen was able to concoct an antidote by manipulating his own tears. Damien then played a key role in the Sekot Accords, convincing Nas Choka and the Yuuzhan Vong to surrender and live a peaceful life on Zonama Sekot. Gathering all the Jedi that had survived the war, Damien explained to them a new path for the Order: their role was to embrace the Force completely and serve its will wherever it would guide them.

Acting on the advice of Kam Solusar, Damien along with Luke Skywalker established a new Jedi Academy on Ossus, where they continued to train young Jedi in the ways of the Force. A few years later, more Jedi candidates, including Luke's son, would attend the Jedi Praxeum on Ossus.

Second Galactic Civil War (40 ABY)
During the initial start of the year of 40 ABY, Damien started to have unusual visions which seemed to relate on an upcoming war, that would threaten the galaxy and the Jedi once more. This brought great joy to Damien since he hasn't fought in Battles since the Yuuzhan Vong War. After Saving Jaina Solo and Jacen Solo from Tsavong Lah during the Yuuzhan Vong War, Damien worried a lot for the Solo twins, especially for Jacen who Damien saw in a vision as a future Sith Lord. Damien also sensed future deaths of the most known Jedi in galaxy, as such were Mara Jade Skywalker. Damien had hoped that these visions would not occur, but he knew that it wasn't for him to decide, for it was the will of the Force, and choices others make. Nevertheless, Damien and his friends prepared themselves for the new war.

The Dark Shadow (40 ABY)
After Jacen fully embraced the dark side, Damien's visions of the shadow person became worse and he knew it had something to do with Jacen. Luke began to worry about Ben's safety and completely distrusted Jacen. As he continued to watch Jacen, Damien and Luke decided that Ben would have to be taken away from Jacen and be given a new master. Mara, however, believed that Jacen was perfect for Ben and that Luke should trust Jacen, because he opened Ben to the Force when they couldn't. To make matters worse, Ben joined the Galactic Alliance Guard, much to Luke's and the other Jedi Masters' dismay. As a test, Jacen brought Lumiya before Damien and Luke in order to find her true intentions. Unbeknownst to Jacen, Damien and Luke eventually did sense Lumiya and believed her to be the dark figure in his dreams. In a discussion between Damien, Luke, and his niece Jaina after her suspension from duty, it became painfully obvious to both of them that Jacen was falling to the dark side and Jaina suggested that Ben be removed from Jacen's tutelage.

Battle of Gilatter VIII The battle between Damien Knights and Lumiya with Leia fighting Alema Rar As the war continued, Luke requested his son Ben to duel him. This was a test for Ben to force Luke to activate his lightsaber, which later was shown to have no power cell. Luke wanted to discover if Ben was becoming corrupted toward the dark side by Jacen, but couldn't find any evidence. Worried about Lumiya's interest in their son, Luke and Mara decided to look for her, hoping to stop her before she inflicted serious damage. On their search, they were summoned by detectives to look at Tresina Lobi's corpse in Fellowship Plaza, whom Luke had told to follow Ben and Jacen. At the crime scene, they found a holocube that eventually brought them to Lumiya's apartment. In the apartment, Mara and Luke found evidence that linked Lumiya to the killing of Bothans. Distraught at their findings, Mara decided that Ben had to be taken away from Jacen.

Damien, Luke, and Mara then journeyed to Hapes, trying to retrieve Ben from the Anakin Solo to keep him away from Jacen. Finding him gone, Damien, Luke, and Mara did meet with Tenel Ka and Jacen, and were given a rendezvous point to meet with their son. After landing at the rendezvous point where Jacen had said Ben would meet them, Damien, Luke, and Mara were attacked by Lumiya and Alema Rar. While Damien dealt with Lumiya, Luke and Mara dueled Alema Rar when she nearly killed Mara with a dart. In the duel, Luke was severely injured while fighting Alema Rar, but Mara defeated Alema, knocking her unconscious, where she discovered the bomb attached to Alema. Returning to see Luke shoot Lumiya five times, Mara informed Damien and Luke of the bomb and pulled them to safety. Luke and Mara saw this as a trap orchestrated by Jacen and all became concerned about their and Ben's safety and seriously considered that Jacen was falling to the dark side and possibly becoming a Sith Lord. Their fear and suspicions deepened after Jacen opened fire with the Anakin Solo's turbolasers upon his own parents. Meeting up with the family, except Han and Leia, Jacen allowed Damien to take Ben away to be cautious. Damien, Luke, Mara, and Ben then returned to Coruscant.

Damien, Luke, and Mara eventually held a meeting with Jagged Fel at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Shortly before the meeting ended, Fel entrusted Luke with a special device which was essential to the capture of Alema Rar. During a Council meeting the possibility of exiling Leia from the Order, something Luke refused to do, also during the meeting Luke asked all the members of the Council to make a list of senior Jedi Knights they thought deserved to be elevated to the rank of Jedi Master, a request that all members of the Council agreed to. In addition, Damien continued to search for Lumiya's lair. Damien would later learn of Lumiya's survival from their duel on Roqoo Depot and confronted her again. Lumiya offered to surrender to him, but Luke was skeptical. Finally, Lumiya just deactivated her whip and offered to Luke that he could kill her at any time that he wanted, though he did not do so. Their confrontation was interrupted by the crashing of a freighter into the station they were on.

Lumiya (40 ABY)
Luke suffered many losses over the years, but the greatest was surely the death of his wife, a death with grievances unmatched since Anakin Solo's heroic self-sacrifice. Believing Lumiya to be responsible, Damien fought the Sith Lady, decapitating her in one glorious final duel on Terephon. However, the true murderer was someone Luke would have never expected—his own nephew, Jacen Solo, now the Sith Lord Darth Caedus. Damien, however, was unaware of this and though the evidence absolved Lumiya, the Master of the Order turned toward Alema Rar as the likely culprit. Damien was present at the funeral of Mara Jade Skywalker, where Leia Organa Solo was to eulogize her fallen sister-in-law. However, Leia was delayed by a squad of GAG troopers that Jacen had sent to detain them. Instead, Saba Sebatyne delivered the eulogy, using points of Mara's history to verbally sting Jacen Solo, who had arrived late. Jacen tried to make up with Luke, and Luke was somewhat willing to reconcile with his errant nephew, even committing the Jedi to the Battle of Kuat in their StealthXs.

Powers & Abilities

 * Advanced Regeneration: Damien has unprecedented skill in healing wounds. His body is brimming with vitality, granting him considerable regenerative powers that could mend most injuries with no residual effects. Damien is able to heal his mangled arm, to the point where it does not show any signs that it was injured.
 * Emerald Lightning Manipulation: Damien has a natural affinity for Lightning, which he mastered before even becoming a Jedi Master. It has become so advanced that it is an attribute enemies identify him by. He can generate and manipulate Emerald Lightning and Electricity from the palm of his hands for a variety of effects, ranging from creating high-speed projectiles of Lightning. Damien is also capable of using his Lightning to deflect enemy attacks. He can wrap his weapons in Lightning in order to increase their attacking power. He can also restrict an opponent's movements by surrounding them with lightning or attack them from afar by firing a bolt of lightning from his hands. His power over lightning is greatly increased by stormy weather, allowing him to strike his opponents with lightning bolts from the clouds. He can also create a powerful sphere of electricity by striking an opponent with two bolts of lightning at once.
 * Emerald Storm Generation: Damien can generate storms in order to increase the power of his lightning. By raising his hand in front of his face with two fingers outstretched, Damien can release storm clouds, which fill the sky and bombard his opponents with lightning bolts at Damien's command.
 * Enhanced Agility: While normally laid-back, Damien is an immensely agile fighter. In battle, he can effectively use the battlefield to his advantage, flipping and jumping from wall to wall to keep his opponents unsure of his attack patterns. Offensively, his agility grants him great balance and dexterity in battle, attacking his opponent from various angles with great accuracy and force.
 * Enhanced Durability: Damien has received considerable physical training from his days in the Jedi Order, and is well-conditioned for battle. He can take large amounts of punishment. As resilient as Damien is, he is just as hard to damage.
 * Enhanced Endurance: Damien is a very resilient warrior. Both when out of breath from running Damien is still able to fight effectively while showing no signs of weakening. His physical strength and speed is matched by his resilience. Damien often ignores most of the injuries he sustains in battle (much like a berserker), not suffering any debilitation despite having multiple slash wounds in his body.
 * Enhanced Sensory Perception: Damien is very gifted at sensing things. By simply touching the ground with his palm, he can detect the presence and number of enemies. He is even able to detect Darth Vader's presence on a battlefield far away, despite being in a different location. His sensory skills are so refined and accurate that he can distinguish between different energy signatures by family. He can use his abilities, along with his tracking skills, in order to follow a target undetected.
 * Enhanced Speed: Damien is highly skilled in the use of Speed. Though this is by no means a unique skill, as most Jedi are capable of performing it to various degrees. Due to his mastery of Emerald Lightning, Damien has mastered this ability to the point where he can appear to be in several places at once and wipe out an entire squadron in seconds. He can easily close tremendous gaps of distance in the blink of an eye while remaining undetected, and can surprise Mace Windu, who is one of the most proficient masters in the art as well. He has mastered all of the Jedi Order's speed-oriented techniques, and has even created some of his own such as supplementing his abilities with Emerald Lightning to move swiftly. Using a technique he can instantly move to the location of anything. Damien is not limited to teleporting himself, as he can bring others with him.
 * Enhanced Strength: Damien possesses a very large degree of physical strength. He can punch and kick opponents with tremendous force and pick up and throw large objects with ease. On Dantooine, having lost his lightsaber, Damien took to tearing super battle droids apart with his bare hands, showing incredible Force strength and resilience as he crushed armor and tore out circuitry with his fingers. He is also able to send enemies that are bigger than him through several buildings with one strike, as well as send them flying hundreds of feet with heavy attacks.
 * Expert Archer: As a child Damien loved bows & arrows. As he got older he became more skilled using his bow & arrows, and gained more power and precision with his arrows. This is similar to how a marksman gains skill and hits the target more frequently. He has greatly increased his power and skill throughout his association with the Jedi Order, and is a prime example of this growth.
 * Expert Marksman: Damien is quite skilled with a blaster. He can fire very precise blaster shots while fighting more than one opponent, and can launch a continuous barrage of shots which even a Sith Swordmaster would have difficulty avoiding.
 * Force Powers: Damien's Mastery of the Force is Exceedingly and Immensely Powerful. He is known for his resistance to the lures of the dark side, channeling his inner darkness into his attacks to help him serve the light side of the Force. This allowed him to utilize some of the darkest powers known to either Jedi or Sith without succumbing to his aggression, such as the terrible Force Crush. Damien is known to use the Force to enhance the capabilities of his body, and as such, was able to leap to great heights and across enormous distances. He demonstrated proficiency in the application of the Force Wave power, and used it to an incredible degree during the battles of Dantooine and Coruscant; blasting hundreds of droids away from him with Force energy alone, and instantly destroying them through the sheer power of the kinetic blast alone instead of hitting them in an obstruction. The Jedi Master also demonstrated an affinity for using darker telekinetic powers, such as Force Grip and Force Crush, the later of which he used to severely injure the fearsome General Grievous. Another incredible feat of the body Damien demonstrated during the Battle of Dantooine was "riding" a landslide of rock and earth weighing hundreds of tons. Damien started off his Force training by teaching himself every Universal technique and they were, Art of the Small, Aing-Tii fighting-sight, Battle meditation, Breath control, Comprehend Speech, Dopplegänger, Force bellow, Force Body, Force Comprehension, Force Confusion, Force deflection  (without a lightsaber), Force Listening, Force-flash, Force Flight, Force Immunity, Force Illusion, Force meld, Force Speed, Force Pull/Push, Force Jump/Leap, Force suppression, Force Breach ( advanced version of Force Suppression), Force Throw, Force barrier, Force vision, Force Whirlwind ( variation of Force Push), Force Wave ( advanced version of Force Push), Force Repulse ( another advanced version of Force Push), Force weapon, Force Whisper, Phase, Precognition, Psychometry, Saber Barrier, Saber Throw, Sever Force, Shatterpoint, Tapas, and Telekinetic lightsaber combat. Damien also knows every ability known to the light side of the Force and they were Alter Environment, Animal friendship, Battlemind, Combustion, Crucitorn, Dark transfer ( Originally believed to only be accessible through the Dark side, but later discovered to also be accessible through the Light side), Droid Disable, Emerald Lightning, Force blinding, Force Enlightenment, Force healing, Force ghost, Force Light, Wall of light ( Can be used by the combined might of many Jedi, though the results may be catastrophic), Force Orb, Force projection, Force protection ( A power only achieved by high-rank Jedi Masters, Force protection made the bearer invulnerable to a wide range of attacks; the ultimate power in terms of defense), Force defend ( Reduced damage taken by Force powers), Force absorb ( A trained Jedi may have converted all kinds of Force attacks used against them to additional Force charge. As the energy used to perform Force-related powers was limited, a Jedi could use the enemy's attacks to their own benefit, instead of receiving damage from them), Protection bubble ( With this Force power, the user could create a defensive sphere around the body, which would protect him from a wide range of attacks, deflect laser blasts, and inflict a certain amount of damage upon contact with the enemy), Force Stun, Force Stasis ( advanced version of Force Stun), Force Stasis Field ( the most advanced version of Force Stun), Force valor, Hibernation trance, Levitation ( Not restricted to Jedi usage), Mind Trick  (Also known as Affect Mind), Force Persuasion ( Less powerful than the Mind Trick), Malacia, Morichro, Plant Surge, and Ray, and Revitalize. Although Damien carries light side powers he has also been known to possess a few dark side powers, and uses them only in extreme circumstance such as, Dark transfer ( Originally believed to only be accessible through the Dark side, but later discovered to also be accessible through the Light side), Deadly Sight, Force Destruction, Force drain, Force Fear, Force Horror ( advanced version of Force Fear), Force Insanity ( the most advanced version of Force Horror), Force lightning  (Organic limbs & extremities required), Chain lightning ( variation of Force lightning), Force shock ( variation of Force lightning), Force storm (lightning) ( advanced version of Force lightning), Force Maelstrom, Force phantom  (Originally but not exclusively employed by the Sith), Force scream, Force Slow, Force Affliction ( variation of Force Slow), Force Plague ( advanced version of Force Slow), Force Sphere, Force storm (wormhole), Force wound, Force grip ( advanced version of Force Wound), Force choke ( variation of Force Grip), Force crush ( the most advanced version of Force Wound), Kinetite, Mechu-Deru, Midi-chlorian manipulation, Mind Control, Sith alchemy, Spear of midnight black, Spirit Transference, Thought bomb, and Torture by Chagrin.
 * Keen Intellect: In addition to his remarkable combat prowess, Damien is gifted with great insight and understanding of situations at hand. Much of his intellect is seen in deduction of situations and combat tactics. Obi-Wan Kenobi himself acknowledged Damien's intelligence surpasses his own immense intellect. He is very insightful of other people, allowing him to see through a person's demeanor and determine what they are thinking. Also able to read well into the situation, he can seemingly predict anything well in advance. Damien is a highly capable teacher. In only five days of unorthodox training, he conditioned Kyle Katarn into an experienced fighter on par with Jedi Masters. His knowledge has led him to an innate understanding of the abilities of others and what happens when independent variables are entered into an equation.
 * Keen Strategist & Tactician: With his years of experience as a teacher and warrior, along with being the Master of the Order of the entire Jedi Order, Damien is a very intelligent man. He can quickly adjust to new developments and make quick decisions accordingly. He has great tactical acumen, proven by his preparations for the battle with the Yuuzhan Vong. As noted by Tsavong Lah, Damien is very cunning, setting up a trap to kill him while Lah was focused on the Solo Twins. He is a very perceptive man, easily deducing Mace Windu was hiding knowledge on the Korunnai. His skill at battle tactics is undeniable: as a Jedi General, he commonly sends the Jedi Masters out to engage in battle, be it to relatively small or large threats, and has done so for a number of years.
 * Martial Artist: Although he primarily relies on his Swordsmanship, Damien is highly skilled with Martial Arts as well. He can enhance the power of his physical attacks by channeling electricity through his fists while attacking his opponent with Martial Arts, granting him impressive offensive capabilities. During his confrontation with the Yuuzhan Vong, he easily tore through hundreds of opponents, disarming many and dodging attacks from multiple directions. He took down nearly fifty Imperial Troopers with only Martial Arts during the Battle of Endor. He fought three Jedi Masters and four Jedi Knights at the same time with Martial Arts without receiving any notable damage. Offensively, he can strike with precision before his opponent has a chance to react and overpower individuals twice his size. Eventually, Damien took the time to teach many rebel pilots, younger Jedi, New Republic troops, including Krismo Sodi and the Kage Warriors in Martial Arts.


 * Master Swordsman: Damien is a Master of Swordsmanship, possessing lethal precision and performing brutally aggressive attacks. In combat, he doesn't seem the least bit taken back by the abilities of his opponent, even when they seemingly have an advantage. He fights with seemingly no effort behind his attacks, as he always wields his Lightsaber with one hand. His combat skills were evident even when he was a child. He easily defeated and killed Sora Bulq, who by strength and age should have been more powerful and skilled than him. Damien was able to effortlessly keep the upper hand against Lumiya, a Sith known for her intellect and skill in Lightsaber Combat, during their battle. He is commonly seen using his Lightsaber's special ability, which is capable of killing multiple targets in one lightning strike, allowing him to be quite deadly at a distance. Damien is also a master of all seven forms of lightsaber combat: Form I: Shii-Cho · Form II: Makashi · Form III: Soresu · Form IV: Ataru · Form V: Shien / Djem So (including Shien-style reversed grip) · Form VI: Niman · Form VII: Juyo / Vaapad and is highly skilled in evasion, offense, defense, and counterattacks. He is impossible to to stop whenever he used Dun Möch, Sokan, Tràkata, and Trispzet. He mastered the deadly form of lightsaber combat known as Vaapad, the seventh form of lightsaber combat which completed (to the Jedi) the Juyo form. Personally he uses Jar'Kai in a masterful two-bladed variant of Vaapad and combines it with his Mastery of Martial Arts. Utilizing a ferocious yet fluid fighting style Damien's mastery of the art form is so great, he uses it exclusively as his form of combat. Damien can also adapt his swordsmanship into element-related techniques such as infusing his Lightsaber with Emerald Lightning, empowering and energizing it and allowing him to manipulate his qualities and efficiency and use it in various ways to attack. Aside from unleashing a wave of unquenchable Emerald Lightning, Damien can control the movement of the Emerald Lightning and shape them, and have the Emerald Lightning surround him as well as create Emerald Lightning spikes to protect himself. Damien can also create Emerald Lightning swords and arrows that can pierce through heavy defenses and ignite them to handle multiple enemies.

Equipments

 * Lightsabers: Damien is a skilled duelist. Like Jedi and Sith Damien uses Lightsabers in combat. He carries twin Lightsabers which are Light Green. 


 * Electro-Swords: As a gift from Krismo Sodi for sparring with him in Martial Arts Damien received a pair of Electro Swords in case he was ever unarmed of his Lightsabers.
 * Gadgets: Damien carries gadgets sometimes such as smokebombs, knock-out gas, grappling hooks, and trackers during combat. Gadgets seem useful to him but some people will never know when he'll use it.
 * R6-H5: Nicknamed Arsix, was the astromech droid of Jedi Master Kit Fisto. He accompanied his Master on many missions for the Jedi Council. He was known for being tentative, often worrying about his master, and for having a dislike of strange situations. After Order 66 Damien found R6-H5 & took him to his ship to work with Damien.


 * TC-16: Is a Silver Protocol Droid who serves as Damien's Translator & ship butler


 * Corellian Defender-class Light Corvette: Years after the destruction of the Jedi Order and Temple, Damien found the Defender and took it with him as he went into Exile.

Personality & Traits
While appearing to be a laid-back individual, Damien loves fighting, and enjoys a good battle more than anything. If it were up to him, he would simply, in his own words, "bust some heads" and ask questions later. Damien sometimes contradicts his own logic in fighting. On the one hand, Damien wishes to increase his own personal power. On the other hand, he conceals his strength to enjoy a fight for as long as possible. Damien strongly believes fun comes before working. In every battle, he tries to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible. However, Damien has a code of honor and usually stops a fight if his opponent is too injured to fight back, and does not feel obligated to deal a death blow to anyone who cannot fight any longer.

Despite his aggression and obvious blood lust in battle, Damien is well-respected and highly honorable, and always treats those around him with respect, even those who are weaker or not as highly ranked as he is. As a result, he can be easily approached by other members of Soul Society who seek favors or advice from the Jedi Master. Due to his high moral code, Damien will never let any harm come to either his younglings or those who attempt to protect them. He refuses to give up when he believes something is wrong and will break a rule to do what is right. He is also quite perceptive, as seen when he analyzes the various disturbances caused in Soul Society, and has the ability to correctly judge people's character.

Overall, Damien strongly believes in law and order. As a Jedi Master and head of one of the greatest noble families, he works hard for a peaceful civilization. He feels that if someone in his position does not follow the rules as a good example, no one else will. He believes that to maintain the order, all law-breakers must be punished, even if it goes against Jedi Philosophy. Damien feels that "part of a Jedi Master's responsibilities is to make sure that the Padawan's responsibilities are taken care of". In spite of his blood lust for battle, Damien cares for and protects those important to him.

Quotes

 * (About Kyle Katarn) "I don't want excuses. Since he was fighting alone, there's no reason that he should have lost. I don't want an idiot that can't even understand this. He's just getting in the way. Hurry and move him somewhere else."
 * (To Kyle Katarn) "Shall I tell you the difference between you and I? It's level. It's like the story of the monkey trying to capture the moon. No matter how he struggles, it's just the moon's reflection on the water he sees. So he only sinks into the water. Time after time, he sinks."
 * (To Kyle Katarn) "With your ability, you will find it impossible to make me fall on even one knee."
 * (To Kyle Katarn) "Be proud, as someone who, after being struck by this power, is still able to retain the form of his body."
 * (To General Grievous) "Regardless of who or what they are, anyone who disturbs Soul Society will be cut down."
 * (To General Grievous) "I have already told you. You and I, our levels are as distant as the earth from the heavens. Must I spell it out for you? I have not nearly lowered myself to your level."
 * (To General Grievous) "At what point did I ever claim that I was cutting you down in my capacity as a Shinigami? To justify the actions I have taken I need but one reason. You raised your blade in contempt of my pride."
 * (To Kh'aris Fenn) "If it is for the sake of my pride, there is nothing I won't destroy."
 * (To Sora Bulq) "I can't believe you called your own sword a tool and attacked it. You don't deserve the title of ‘Shinigami’."
 * (To Anakin Skywalker) "Do not overestimate yourself, Anakin. There is none among the Masters of the Jedi Order to whom the aid of one such as yourself could be considered significant."
 * (To ) "I decline. Finishing off a weakened opponent is a job better suited for a barbarian such as yourself."
 * (To Tsavong Lah) "I have nothing but contempt for the way you do battle. Rather than face your opponent in fair combat, you prefer to toy with your enemy, stealing away the things they hold dear. You are a coward. A shameless coward who deserves to die. Now, face me like a man. Before you have even finished swinging down your blade, I will strike you down and toss your worthless body aside."
 * (To Tsavong Lah) "I had always believed that battle was an art to be perfected through meticulous training and preparation. But today, for the first time, I was able to comprehend the thrill of indulging one's more primal instincts. You have my thanks. This battle was an enjoyable one."
 * (To Matthew Knights about Korrah Knights) "Around the time we started dating, she said that my hand is cool after a fight. Now that I think about it, that was the only time your mom complimented me on my looks. So every year I fight on this day. In front of her."
 * (To Yoda) "I have learned all too well that I am still far too weak to allow myself to grow headstrong. As I have been lucky enough to survive, I must strive to once more achieve strength enough to justify the pride I once held."
 * (To Korrah Knights) "Fear is never born from nothing. It is born from the tiny insecurities that linger within our hearts."
 * (To Matthew Knights) "If you wield your blade without regard for your own life, you will find yourself unable to protect anything."
