Oss Willum

Reference Book: Star Wars Saga Edition Jedi Academy Training Manual

Affiliations: The Jedi, The Sith, Exar Kun

Oss Willum begins his career as a simple trader, literally living out of his ship. The day he heroically rescues a Republic courier ship changes his life and opens him up to The Force. Oss eventually finds tutelage first under Jedi Master Garnoo and then under Jedi Master Thon.

Oss is most noted for his ill-fated encounters with Exar Kun. When Oss is sent to rescue Ulic Qel-Droma from Krath War Droids on Deneba, he receives a vision that he would someday train under Exar Kun, and so he assumes that Kun is a great and powerful Jedi. Exar Kun convinces Oss and several other impressionable Jedi that The Jedi Order has denied them the key to victory in battle. Along with some of his companions, Oss travels with Exar Kun to Yavin 4, where Kun smashes a Sith Holocron he had stolen from Jedi Master Odan-Urr. The fragments pierce Oss Willum's flesh, causing him to be possessed by Sith Spirits. Oss commits unspeakable acts while under the influence of The Sith, but is eventually subdued by Jedi Knights Nomi Sunrider and Sylvar and restored to the path of The Light Side.

Oss Willum Encounters[]

Although a relatively unremarkable Jedi, Oss Willum gets caught up in many important events and could be found in the same places as Jedi Master Thon or Jedi Knight Nomi Sunrider. Heroes might encounter Oss during the time when he is possessed by the Sith Spirits, providing them the dilemma of trying to stop his actions without having to kill him. They could also be asked by Nomi Sunrider or other Jedi to help with Oss Willum's rehabilitation once the Sith Spirits are purged.
