Who is Exar Kun?

or you could take 10 seconds to answer the poor guy...

 

Exar Kun was a jedi that lived four thousand years before the movies. He thought he knew the dark side better than Vodo Siosk-Baas, his own master, and abandoned his training. He fully opened himself to the dark side to save his own life, and went to Yavin 4 where the decendants of Naga Sadow (a previous Sith lord)'s Massassi warriors waited for a new dark lord. He swayed more jedi to his cause, along w/ his new apprentice, Ulic Qel-Droma (Marka Ragnos, actually, was the one to name Kun the new Dark Lord of the Sith and Ulic his apprentice). He even killed his own master in front of the whole Jedi council on Coruscant.

The Jedi arrived at Yavin 4 to destroy Kun, but before they could, he drained the life force of the Massassi and preserved his own spirit within the temples he had the Massassi construct for him. 4,000 years later, he was finally destroyed by Luke's new students in the Jedi Academy.

 

Whew :) Gotta love my Essential Guide to Characters. Exar Kuns original story was told in the "Tales of the Jedi" comics. The whole 4,000 years later story is told in the jedi academy series by Kevin Anderson. Hope the info helps :)

And here I was thinking this was a Star Wars related forum... forgive my ignorance.

 

They should make a Google community... then they wouldn't have to bother with forums or sites or any of the other technicalities and middle-men that slow the system down, and just send everyone straight there.

 

Problem solved.

Wasn't he actually ~3000 years before ANH? Because the temples he was visiting were from when Korriban was the home to the Sith, and the planet was already basically dead.

 

Also of interest, Marka Ragnos (hint: Jedi Academy) was pivotal in Kun becoming the Dark Lord of the Sith.
