Sa'har Kateen

Years before the third Galactic War, Sa'har and her older brother Ri'kan Kateen were both orphaned at a young age. Both spent their earliest years at the Mek-Sha Home for Lost Children, an orphanage located on the space station of Mek-Sha.

Sometime later, Sa'har and her brother Ri'kan began to show signs of Force-sensitivity, though Sa'har had a stronger connection to the Force than her brother. The two Twi'leks were soon discovered by Jedi Master Denolm Orr. After Sa'har easily passed the test required to initiate her into the Jedi Order, Orr took Sa'har as his Padawan. Orr left Ri'kan behind due to his little connection to the Force and then the two departed Mek-Sha. Sa'har began her Jedi training at the Jedi Temple on the planet Tython.

Over the years Sa'har grew into a powerful and trusted Jedi Padawan under her master's wing. She eventually joined Orr's master and a team consisting of Jedi Master Gan Enok, Material Analysis Dr. Mykon Ora, Chief Engineer Rolan Aun and Specialist Tiriz Etto to search for Darth Nul's creations at the planet Elom. By the time they reached the Temple of Nul only Sa'har and Orr were alive.

At the temple, Sa'har and her master encountered a Sith Warrior that arrived to get a holocron from a device inside the temple. The young Jedi and her Master proved to be a worthy match to the Sith Warrior, in the middle of their duel, Orr told Sa'har to destroy the machine inside the temple as well as all records of it, but the two were surprised by the arrival of the renegade Sith Lord Darth Malgus, who backstabbed the Sith Warrior they were fighting and also attempted to get the holocron.

As Sa'har went after the machine, Malgus tried to attack her with his Force lightning, but the Padawan quickly dodged it and made it to the device while her Master fought the Sith Lord. Once at the machine, Sa'har was met with a vision of her past, where she saw how her Master left her brother behind when he took only her as his Padawan. She became overwhelmed with these memories and listened to Malgus talk about the pain and fear the Jedi caused her by keeping the secret of the Force from her brother.

Orr eventually used the Force to destroy the machine and free Sa'har from its control, but as the young Padawan retrieved the holocron from the machine, she refused to give it to Orr, saying that he could've saved her brother. Both Padawan and Master fought for the holocron, allowing Malgus to recover from the fight and entangle Orr with the Force before striking him down. Back to her senses, Sa'har dueled the Sith Lord for the holocron, but she was unfortunately Force-pushed and was later buried under the rubble of the falling temple by Malgus, who used this opportunity to snatch the holocron from her hands. The Sith Lord left Sa'har to her own fate while he told her that she needed to break free of her cage if she was ready.

Sa'har survived the destruction of the temple and made it out alive long after Malgus left, as the renegade Sith Lord was captured and later imprisoned by the Alliance Commander, Lana Beniko and their reinforcements. While sneaking out of the wreckage, Sa'har saw that the holocron was hidden amid the temple's rubble and was apparently left there by Malgus before being captured, the Padawan then grabbed the holocron with the Force before running away with it.

Sa'har snuck aboard an old passenger transport to escape Elom, and spent the following days meditating in hopes of finding a clue that could lead to her brother. During her attempts to reach Ri'kan with the Force, the former Padawan heard Malgus' voice inside her head and even felt how Darth Nul's holocron began to pulse. After a failed attempt to open the holocron, Sa'har sneaked into the gallery of the transport to find something to eat but encountered a woman with two cybernetic legs halfway to the pantry door.

As the two ate, Sa'har told the woman that she was a farmer named Tau and they both talked about their father figures and how they weren't as perfect as they thought. Returning to her cramped room, Sa'har picked the holocron once again but this time succeeded in opening it, witnessing the vast amount of designs and patterns the device projected. Focusing, Sa'har managed to see her brother and was eventually bonded with him through the Force, which would allow her to find him.

After reaching the location of Ri'kan thanks to the holocron, Sa'haar seemingly "rescued" her brother, who was imprisoned by unknown forces which she assumed to be slave traders, by slicing through them with her lightsaber. After realizing that her brother was no longer a slave, Sa'haar had to face Ri'kan's anger towards her as he felt abandoned by her and was less interested in repairing their relationship which led Sa'haar to offer her help, to which Ri'kan refused but soon said that he knew of someone who could use her help. Later Sa'haar travelled with Ri'kan to meet up with Heta Kol and the Hidden Chain.

At some point, Sa'har told Ri'kan that she became aware of a superweapon that Darth Malgus was after before he was captured and that the holocron she got from Darth Nul's Temple on Elom was the key to it.

Later she was on Ruhnuk alongside the rest of the Hidden Chain and was stationed at the relay station, while she was on holocall with Ri'kan she was interrupted by the arrival of the Alliance Commander and Shae Vizla both who wanted to know the location of Darth Nul's holocron and Heta Kol respectively. Sa'har refused to answer any questions which angered Shae as she fired a shot that broke a window which the rogue Padawan saw fit to use as a means of escape while destroying a tracer fired by Shae just before jumping from the window.

Later Sa'har informed Heta of the presence of the Commander and left it to her to deal with both them and Shae. Sa'har later participated in the ensuing battle between the Hidden Chain and Mandalore the Avenger's forces by assisting Ri'kan in his duel against the Commander just as he was about to be defeated. Using the Force, Sa'har pushed the Alliance Commander back while escaping with Ri'kan in an Eternal Empire shuttle along with Heta Kol and the majority of their forces. Sa'har and Ri'kan met with Heta who the former then revealed that Sa'har knew of a weapon that could help Heta and their cause when Sa'har voiced her objection on using such a weapon. Ri'kan then emotionally blackmailed Sa'har into agreeing to share the information which prompted Heta to take Sa'har to a private area where both could converse in secret about it much to Ri'kan's anger.

Sa'har would later approach Ri'kan to encourage him to tap into his latent Force ability. However, Ri'kan quickly lost his patience and stabbed the datapad he was practising on. He then explained the knife he held was once Heta's used to cut his slave collar, which put him on the path to becoming a Mandalorian. Sa'har professed she hoped he would survive on his own, to which her brother retorted he had to earn what he had while she got everything. She then refuted that she lost everything, which only served to provoke him.

Their argument was soon interrupted by Heta. As her council gathered, she announced that what she found on Darth Nul's holocron to elevate the Hidden Chain's power. Sa'har attempted to protest using Nul's secrets but the Hidden Chain leader used her smooth tongue remind that she herself was seeking to restore "balance" to a galaxy full of hypocrisy, silencing the young Jedi. Heta then declared that the members of the Hidden Chain would be given separate assignments, while the entire plan would be compartmentalized between herself and Sa'har, earning Ri'kan's jealousy.

As the Hidden Chain made their preparations to execute Heta's plan, Sa'har approached Ri'kan to ask if he believed he was doing the right thing supporting Heta's plan. Her brother retorted that it was too late to second guess him, declaring his loyalty to Heta, before ordering her to carry out her assignment.

Sa'har would then secretly traveled to Ord Mantell, where the Hidden Chain were stealing both civilians and cooling rods. Finding Tyrus Brokenblade in battle with the Commander, she intervened before he could execute Petra Nihrum. Faced with the infuriated Clan Varad leader, Sa'har dismissed his warning that Heta would kill her for her betrayal. However, she was quickly provoked as he suggested that Ri'kan would execute her himself.

Sa'har then worked with the Commander to defeat Tyrus. Once the fighting was over, she confessed that the Hidden Chain were seeking to build a machine based off a blueprint on Darth Nul's holocron and that she's been trying to sabotage their efforts as best she could, but now she needs help. Suddenly, she caught Tyrus attempting to warn Heta of her betrayal, forcing her to cut off his right hand, leaving her horrified by her own act of mutilation. Once the Commander decided Tyrus' fate, Sa'har commandeered his ship, promising to contact the Commander once she was ready to steal Nul's holocron from Heta, before mentioning that Petra had departed the scene.

After departing Ord Mantell, Sa'har became lost in thought before becoming snapped out of her stupor by Ri'kan on holocomm, demanding an update. Sa'har claimed that she was chasing a lead for Heta that turned false, so he ordered her to return to the fleet.

Even at a young age, Sa'har was strong with the Force, which prompted her to be chosen by Denolm Orr as his Padawan. Despite only being a Padawan she was able to rival the powers of her master when preventing him from snatching the holocron from her with the Force. Thought she lost her duel against Darth Malgus, Sa'har was able to keep up a fight with the rogue Sith Lord to the point where she made Malgus lose one of his sabers. She was able to open Darth Nul's holocron and even managed to bond with her brother through the Force, which was key to finding him. Sa'har also slashed multiple opponents with ease while trying to rescue Ri'kan.

Sa'har Kateen was first mentioned in "Mission Abstract: Investigate link between Darth Malgus and the planet Elom," a short story posted on the official Star Wars: The Old Republic website on October 1, 2021. She later featured prominently in Disorder, a cinematic trailer for The Old Republics expansion Legacy of the Sith. Both the trailer and the expansion were released on February 15, 2022. She is voiced by Lena Torluemke.
