Dakken Strom

Dakken Strom is a former Jedi padawan who turned to the dark side, blinded by passion. His love for his at the time girlfriend, Hallis Byst, led him to question the Jedi Order, however, when he proposed they run away to the dark side in order to be together she refused. Dakken was forced to murder her. His anger quickly overtook his guilt, and he swore to destroy any traces of the Sunrider.

He is now a known as Ceiphel. He works apart from the empire, with his small army know as the Judged. Ceiphel has a deep understanding of the dark side of the force, mastering such skills as force lightning, telekinesis, and slight precognition in battle.

Backstory
Dakken was born in 39 BBY to a normal family on Alderaan. He was shown at a young age to be force sensitive, so his family excitedly sent their son away to join the Order.

Being forced into this life of being a Jedi, he at first thought it was a blessing, but as he grew he started to think the opposite. He met another Padawan, named Kahnis Glave. The two became close friends, and often confided in each other. They often sparred and trained together, so much so that they started to memorize and recognize one another's fighting styles and signature moves, making them an almost unstoppable team.

As he got older he met and got close to another Padawan, named Hallis Byst. The two got very close and quickly started a romantic relationship, which was banned by the order they were a part of. The secrecy seemed fun to Dakken at first, but he quickly grew to dislike the order and their policy on romance. Dakken could feel he was being tempted by the dark side, but he didn't care, for it started to cloud his judgement. Hallis told Dakken that she was something called a Sunrider, but he didn't truly know what that meant, she explained she had a great connection to the force, and a great power. She also explained that it was a secret and that no one must know. Dakken was slightly jealous of her power, but continued to support her.

In the days leading up to Order 66, Dakken was walking around the temple, then spotted Hallis and Kahnis talking, he overheard his name. He immediately thought the worst and got very angry. He was tempted to confront the pair, but decided not to, and internalized it. He knew that Kahnis would be leaving for Kashyyyk the next day, so he decided to tamper with Kahnis's lightsaber.

On the day of Order 66, Dakken met with Hallis, Dakken had decided to leave the order and join the dark side. He offered to take Hallis with her, but she declined. Outraged and confused, Dakken tried to reason with her telling her that they could be together, and that she was idiotic for not coming with him. In his rage Dakken killed her, with a short blast of electricity. Dakken grabbed her lightsaber, and decided to destroy any last traces of the Sunrider.

He flew to Tatooine, where Hallis said the Sunrider Temple was. He arrived by himself, but he was more than enough to destroy the temple. There was a man standing guard, he explained that he was Lanipher Calow. Dakken sliced him down without any hesitation, Dakken started to destroy the place. Pillar by pillar he was cutting it all down. Lanipher had explained that he must stay away from the light, for that was what gave the Sunrider its power. Wanting to take the power, he attempted to walk into the Sunrider's Light. As he walked into it, he was scarred all over his face. He destroyed the rest of the temple, throwing Hallis' lightsaber into the wreckage.
