The twin of Jaina, Jacen was born after his sister. As he grew older, he became concerned with the direction of the Jedi Order, fearing that any aggression or even violent defensive action could send the whole Order to the Dark Side. He eventually decided that some evil had to be fought, and after being captured by the Yuuzhan Vong and tutored by Vergere, he developed a new philosophy in which how the Force was used did not matter, but the intent behind it. After helping end the Yuuzhan Vong War, Jacen went on a five year odyssey across the galaxy, training with numerous Force using groups. During this time, he had a vision of his unborn daughter Allana standing side-by-side with a "Dark Man" and ruling the galaxy. He set out to stop it any way he could, eventually falling to the Dark Side and becoming Darth Caedus, taking over the Galactic Alliance in the process. He was killed by Jaina in a duel at the end of the Second Galactic Civil War, but had successfully altered the future of the galaxy, preventing Allana from falling to the Dark Side.

%%* ByronicHero

* AffablyEvil: One of the more morally grey Sith, being both a sincere mentor and motherly figure while also torturing and manipulating Jacen.

* AntiVillain: He has noble aims - protecting his daughter and the galaxy from a BadFuture ruled by someone heavily implied to be Darth Krayt. Unfortunately, his chosen means of preventing that BadFuture is by becoming a ruthless Sith Lord.

Considered by some to be the "proto-Mara Jade" (ie. redheaded/green-eyed Imperial assassin). Of course, her path didn't lead to as nearly a fulfilling life as Mara's. Eventually, she became an EvilMentor for Jacen, before being killed by Luke in a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: When Lumiya was getting Jacen Solo to become her apprentice, she explained that Palpatine was "nothing more than a psychopath consumed with power", strongly implying that although she was a Sith, even she was disgusted with some of Palpatine's actions.

* HiddenAgendaVillain: Her goals are extremely unclear, due to her tendency of lying to others in order to manipulate them. All that has really been made clear was that it involved corrupting Jacen Solo. Being confirmed as a Sith has not made it any easier to guess what she wanted to accomplish.

* OnlySaneMan: Much less AxCrazy than the others, and doesn't have the same connection to Mother driving him

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives one to the One Sith Empire in ''Inferno.''

* AllAmazonsWantHercules: With Tenel Ka.

%%* AntiVillain

* CanonImmigrant: [[spoiler:Kylo Ren, an {{Expy}} of Caedus, serves as TheHeavy of ''Film/TheForceAwakens''.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: Despite calling out others about valuing their family above the galaxy, he values his daughter above ''everything''. Furthermore, he thinks that Luke is too confined and narrow with his old-fashioned, Light Side ideals, and attempts to become the RedMage-but ends up as just another Sith.

* AMillionIsAStatistic: Interestingly, he's ''completely'' against this mindset, noting that it's pure arrogance to value one above many (though see {{Hypocrite}}, above.

* ThanatosGambit / ZeroApprovalGambit: As Darth Caedus.
* TreacherousAdvisor / BrokenPedestal: To Ben Skywalker in ''Literature/LegacyOfTheForce''.

* {{Ubermensch}}: Completely rejects the Jedi and Sith codes, attempting to form his own unique combination of the two as Darth Caedus. However, he ends up grasping the VillainBall so tightly that he may as well have become a standard Sith.

* VillainBall: Not long after he becomes a full Sith, he grabs this with both hands. It significantly contributes to the collapse of his partnership with Cha Niathal, the decay of his military competence, and his eventual death.

%%* {{Cyborg}}

%%* WasOnceAMan

* GrayEyes: One of the ways that Jaden and Kheydan realize that he's a clone of Jaden.

* AxCrazy: Progressively so, especially after

* ChickMagnet: Tenel Ka, Danni Quee, Seha Darvold, and Nelani Dinn have all found Jacen to be very attractive. It seems to be a main trait of Solos and Skywalkers.

* BastardUnderstudy: Is trained by [[spoiler: Luke but goes back to the Sith.]]]

* PapaWolf: Jacen's reason for turning to the Dark Side dealt with this trope: He was trying to prevent a future where his daughter Allana would either be enslaved or act as the right-hand woman to the Dark Man (strongly implied to be Darth Krayt) in the event that he succeeded in gaining the Throne of Balance instead of Allana.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Despite calling out others about valuing their family above the galaxy, he values his daughter above ''everything''.

* AMillionIsAStatistic: Interestingly, he's ''completely'' against this mindset, noting that it's pure arrogance to value one above many.

* TookaLevelInJerkass: Jacen suffers an extreme case of this after killing Mara and becoming Darth Caedus.
* {{Ubermensch}}: Completely rejects the Jedi and Sith codes, attempting to form his own unique combination of the two as Darth Caedus.

!!Alema Rar
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alema_rar_swleu_3870.jpg]]

A female Twi'lek, Alema and her twin sister Numa were supporters of Jedi Master Kyp Durron during the Yuuzhan Vong War, leading a resistance movement on the planet of New Plympto that eventually resulted in the planet being destroyed. While attempting to escape on a refugee vessel, Numa became the first victim of the Voxyn, and her death planted a seed of darkness inside Alema that would grow throughout the war and beyond. During the Swarm War, Alema fell under the sway of the Dark Nest and betrayed the Jedi Order, becoming the Night Herald of Lomi Plo. Over the course of the war final battles, she became maimed by Luke and Leia, losing usage of her left arm, half her right lekku, half of one of her feet, and numerous scars when a beast tried to eat her on Tenupe. After escaping Tenupe, Alema became obsessed with punishing Leia for her wounds and the destruction of the Dark Nest, mostly by attempting to kill Han and assisting Lumiya in turning Jacen to the Dark Side. The Jedi formed a task force consisting of Jagged Fel and her former comrades Jaina Solo and Zekk to hunt her down, [[spoiler:culminating in her death at the hands of Jag in the hidden asteroid base of Darth Vectivus.]]
