Grand Master Satele Shan
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Born on the Core world of Brentaal IV to the heretical then-Jedi Tasiele Shan, Satele's early life was full of turmoil. Removed from her mother's custody for her safety at the age of seven by Master Kao Cen Darach, she then grew up in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, eventually becoming Darach's Padawan.
Darach was killed by Sith on what had seemed like a routine mission, and Satele journeyed back to Coruscant Masterless to deliver the knowledge that the Empire had returned.
Her training finished by Master Ngani Zho, the young Jedi rapidly became a propaganda symbol for the Republic, and felt the pressure to win the war and to be utterly irreproachable. Alas, she was not; she fell in love, went through an unpleasant breakup, and gave birth to a son, Theron Shan, all in secret. She reluctantly gave custody of the child to Zho, and continued in the war effort.
The war ended with the destruction of the Jedi Temple, and the Jedi found themselves scattered and homeless. Two years later, Satele rediscovered the ancient Jedi homeworld of Tython, and directed resettlement and rebuilding efforts in the ruins of what had been their first Temple millenia ago. Quickly promoted to the Jedi Council, and then to the position of Grand Master, Satele led the Jedi Order through the uneasy Cold War, and then faced down the spectre of more open war as the Treaty of Coruscant was broken.
Balancing military and political duties with her role in the Jedi Order, Satele once again found herself torn between loyalties that should never have been conflicting in the first place.

Satele Shan is the most currently well-known scion of an infamous dynasty tracing its descent to Revan and Bastila Shan. She was initially raised and trained by her mother, Tasiele Shan, but broke away from her when Tasiele was exiled from the Jedi Order.
Tasiele dedicated books detailing her heretical views to Satele.
Satele has a biological son, Theron Shan, who she surrendered at birth to her former Master, Ngani Zho, fearing what could happen if she raised him. She reconnected with him during the Cold War, and they are working on building a relationship.
