Background: Horkon Sunskimmer was born to Sirrus and Aubrie Sunskimmer on Corellia. At age three, the Jedi took him in. He became a member of the Wolf Clan at age 4. While in the Wolf Clan, Horkon and his fellow Jedi younglings where trained by Master Yoda in the ways of the lightsaber and the Force. At age 8 his became the padawan learner of Master Sagro Lyse of Naboo. The two of them where sent on many missions by the Jedi Council, their first mission together brought them to Nemodia to investigate an assassination attempt on Senator Lott Dod, the mission almost ended Horkon's life when a group of hunter-killer droids destroyed his lightsaber and cornered him, only the appearance of his master and the destruction of the droids saved the young Jedi. Ten years before the start of the Clone Wars, Horkon entered knighthood and took a young cheetah named Mak Noss as his padawan learner. During the Battle of Jabiim, Horkon’s former master was struck down by Separatist commander Alto Stratus, while his platoon of clones met a similar fate. Approximately one month after the death of his former master, Horkon was called upon to lead a battalion of clones and had been given the temporary rank of General. His forces saw action at the Battle of Badgen, the Battle of Galidran and several other battles along the Outer Rim. At the Battle of Badgen, Horkon’s unit was cut off from the main supply convoy and his padawan was killed by a AAT. During the Battle of Galidran, Horkon fell in love with a fellow Jedi by the name of Zulé Noss, Zulé being the older sister of Horkon’s now dead padawan. Zulé Noss came from Naboo and often tried to find a way for Horkon and her to visit her homeworld. The two Jedi kept their love secret, yet Master Yoda came to close to uncovering them on several occasions. Three months prior to the end of the Clone Wars, Horkon had risen to the title of Jedi Master. During the final month of the Clone Wars, Horkon’s platoon along with all other clone units were ordered by Palpatine to destroy the Jedi. The soldiers that were formerly under his command now turned on him, he managed to take out a fifth of the platoon until Commander Doz winged the Jedi with his DC-15. Before Clone Commander Doz could strike him down, Zulé Noss managed to break away and sever the clones head. They fought their way to a nearby settlement and 'borrowed' an ARC-170, making their temporary escape. During the Jedi Purge, after narrowly escaping Lord Vader and his forces, Horkon and Zulé fled to a little-known planet in the Outer Rim called Lamaredd, in which the Empire had forgotten. A year after their arrival in the Lamaro system. The two Jedi started a new life on the third planet of the system, Lamaredd. Horkon and Zulé took on the appearance of a married couple, which was, in it's own right, the truth. Several years later Zulé gave birth to a daughter. Horkon and Zulé bestowed upon her the name Ivanova Aubrie Sunskimmer. In the later years of the Jedi Purge, Horkon came across a Force-sensitive named Marcus Starkiller and brought him into hiding for training. But Horkon and Marcus had been followed to Lamaredd by a Dark Side adept known as Dar Ksin, during the ensuing battle, the dark warrior ruthlessly thrust her crimson blade through Zulé’s heart. Struck with sadness and anger, Horkon attacked Dar, but she managed to escape. As Zulé lay dying at Horkon’s feet, he promised her that the dark side wouldn’t get the better of him. He now works along side his daughter and her husband in the fight against the Empire.
Character Notes: Horkon is referred by others of his order as a “Grey Jedi” due to him not always following the orders given to him by the Jedi Council and for doing what he thinks is right. During the Clone Wars Horkon fell close to the dark side when his padawan was killed. The second and most tragic of his falls to the dark side was when Zulé was murdered.
