Desann

Desann is the main antagonist in Jedi Outcast of the Jedi Knight Series. He is a Sith Lord and has an apprentice named Tavion. He has also a reptile-like humanoid appearance with rough, dark, skin, and is larger than the average human. Desann has superior fighting skills with the Force and lightsaber wielding. This makes him a formidable opponent for Kyle Katarn, the main character and protagonist. Desann created a strong group of warriors, trained to use the Force.

As a young child, Desann was part of the Jedi Order. He was considered an outcast from the Jedi, and a youngling Jedi had once mocked him. Desann became angry, and later killed the child in cold blood. He later announced that he was too "weak" to become a Jedi, and permanently left the Council. Fueled with anger and fear, Desann followed the path of the dark side, and it consumed him for the rest of his life. Before the final duel between Kyle and Desann at the Yavin temple, Kyle had offered Desann to come and join him, as Desann had done the same thing, but Desann simply called Kyle a weak fool and drew out his lightsaber for attack. Desann was killed by Kyle in the duel, which was when his apprentice Tavion cowered and made plans for revenge.
