Dagan Gera

Dagan Gera was a Force-sensitive Arkanian Offshoot male who was a Jedi Knight and renowned explorer during the High Republic Era and a well-respected member of the Jedi Order during his prime, and discovered the paradisical planet Tanalorr on an uncharted trip through the deadly Koboh Abyss nebula.

Gera's desire to use Tanalorr as a bastion of the Jedi in the Outer Rim and as a temple to train initiates soon blossomed into an obsession with the planet. After the Nihil pirates invaded Tanalorr, the Jedi Council gave the order to abandon the planet, which culminated in Gera falling to the dark side of the Force and betraying the Jedi, before being sealed inside a bacta tank for two centuries.

Awoken from his slumber in 9 BBY during the Imperial Era by the Jedi Knight Cal Kestis, Gera discovered the fall of the Galactic Republic and that the Jedi Order was no more. Consumed by his feeling of betrayal, he joined the Bedlam Raiders. He began a campaign to return to Tanalorr that put him at odds with both Kestis and the Galactic Empire, with Kestis ultimately defeating and killing the fallen Jedi with the help of Bode Akuna.
