Mara Jade

Mara Jade was a female Human Dark Jedi. She was originally the apprentice to a Jedi Master who had taken refuge from Order 66. When her Master was killed by Darth Vader in the waning years of the Empire, Jade fled to the Outer Rim. Using her Jedi powers to survive through crime, Jade became disillusioned with the Jedi Code and increasingly used the Dark Side to get what she needed. She ignored Luke Skywalker's call for any surviving Jedi in the galaxy and continued living her life in the Outer Rim.

In 31 ABY, Jade met Darth Amorosa on opposite ends of a mercenary job. The two briefly fought, but the standstill made both of them realize that a few credits wasn't worth the trouble and they left together. The two were brief sexual partners for a time, parting ways after a few weeks but keeping in touch. In 35 ABY, Jade joined the Resistance after Amorosa reached out to her requesting aid. As an experienced Force User, she oversaw the basic training of the Force-Sensitive Stormtrooper children the Resistance had rescued, as well as training Jannah Tico as her apprentice.

After the First Order-Republic War, Jade joined the Jedi Order under the promise that the old Jedi ways were being discarded by the new Grand Master, Rey Beniko.
