Milak Sonloam


Milak Sonloam was a Jedi Knight of the Human species (a male), who served both the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic during the period known as the Clone Wars.

Biography

Milak Sonloam joined the ranks of the Jedi Order when his age was not recorded. He underwent training in the innovative program at the Almas Academy, which accepted older students. He eventually passed the Trials of Knighthood administered by the Almas Council and received recognition from the Jedi High Council located on Coruscant. Following this, Sonloam achieved the rank of Jedi Knight.

Sonloam was highly regarded by his fellow Jedi, known for his exceptional skill with a lightsaber and his remarkable bravery in combat. As the Clone Wars consumed the galaxy, the High Council on Coruscant instructed the Masters of the academy to dispatch all non-essential personnel to the Jedi Temple so they could be assigned to the Grand Army of the Republic. Sonloam, however, was angered by the High Council's choice to engage the Confederacy of Independent Systems in a full-scale war. He declined the rank of General and instead stayed in the Cularin system, executing missions solely under the direction of the Almas Council.

The Council tasked the Knight with a significant mission: to explore the abandoned fortress of Darth Rivan alongside a fourteen-member Jedi research team. Although the Jedi had captured the fortress, its complete exploration was hindered by the pervasive influence of the dark side deeply embedded within its structure. The Jedi were not alone in their interest in the fortress; the Believers, a dark side cult, also sought the ancient knowledge within for their own nefarious purposes. Accompanied by five other Knights, Agai'i moved to defend the structure from an impending attack. Sonloam and his fellow guards took up a defensive position at the southern entrance of the fortress, awaiting the research team's exploration of the building.

While the team was inside, a sandstorm offered cover for Phylus Mon, his nine adepts, and their massive Force-sensitive Wampa. The ambush succeeded; Sonloam and the other Jedi guarding the fortress were defeated and killed, leaving the fortress and the research team exposed. The adepts, performing a ritual at the heart of the fortress, managed to avoid the research team, who were preoccupied with trying to raise the academy through the storm. By the time Master Lanius Qel-Bertuk assembled search parties to look into the deaths, the raiders had already left.
