The Ones

Canon Legends version → Linked from 21 articles

The Ones, also known as the Mortis gods, were a powerful family of Force wielders that resided on the planet Mortis. They consisted of the Son, who aligned with the dark side of the Force, the Daughter, who was aligned with the light side of the Force, and the Father, who represented the balance of the Force. Both the Son and the Daughter were immortal so long as the Father remained alive. They could only be killed by the Dagger of Mortis.

In 20 BBY, the family encountered the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and Padawan Ahsoka Tano. During that encounter, the Father attempted to convince Skywalker to assume his role as the balance between the Son and Daughter. However, the Son attempted to prevent Skywalker from assuming that role, leading to a conflict that ended with the deaths of the Daughter and the Father, who killed himself to allow Skywalker to defeat the Son.

The family was depicted in a painting on the Lothal Jedi Temple, which served as a portal to the World Between Worlds. The Ones were also depicted as sculptures on the extragalactic planet of Peridea, carved into the face of a rocky mountain, overlooking a valley towards a starry peak.
