Kydan Witress, or The Dark Mercenary, was a male Human Witronian and Akutonian who served in the days of the Clone Wars to the ages of the Galactic Consortium era and the middle ages of the Hasnaan's Demise. Once serving the Jedi Order, he left at a young age and became a new type of mercenary. Later on, he would serve as a general in the Rebel Merc Alliance for a few years.

Biography[]
Early Life[]
Being born in 39 BBY, and raised on Witrone for a few years, Kydan's father, Frondin Witress, took him to Coruscant on order to be trained as a Jedi. The Jedi Council, weary of the child's mysterious energy inside him, placed his father and a few other Jedi Masters, including Jedi Master Yoda, to secretly train him alone. For a few years, Kydan was kept hidden away from the other students and masters around the Jedi Temple, not knowing what could happen if his powers were to be unleashed. One known Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, visited the boy early on while starting his own training with his master, Qui-Gon Jinn. In time, Kydan grew to love the older student as a big brother after countless visits and training.
At the age of 5, his father and his uncles, Coneros Witress and Jedone Witress, left him in the care of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan as they went to investigate a disturbance in the Vergesso Asteroids mining facilities. Later on, possibly within a week after, the three returned, but differently. Still at a young age, Kydan did not notice the change in the Force within Jedone at the time. Months after, Jedone renounced the Jedi Order and fled to the Outer Rim, creating distress within his father and uncle. When he had turned 6, Frondin took a small team of Republic soldiers and Jedi to track down Jedone, or now known as Lord Nedoura. After a few days passed, the Council and Coneros received Frondin's lightsaber, indicating his unexpected death. With that, Kydan fell in a long, deep sadness and depression.
