Kolas like many young force sensitives was brought into the Jedi order to receive training in the Jedi ways. He was taken from his home of Quarzite at the age of 3 and brought to train under the Jedi. As the Jedi Exile war raged over the galaxy Kolas never had a true home, almost all of his training taking place with other initiates in the sprawling war camps set up by the Jedi. The training of the order would prove to be grueling as the order needed any force sensitives available to fill the ranks of the Jedi forces to combat the Exiles. This would prove to suit Kolas just fine and the young boy excelled in his early training. He took a particular liking to his martial studies and sought to learn all he could about every saber form, weapon type and fighting style before him. He would soon become well known for his proficiency in martial combat, though many of the masters worried that the young Kolas may have shown too much aggression in his sparring sessions. Young Kolas always sought utter victory over his opponent, never content with a ruling or a surrender. The masters allowed his training to continue as they knew the Jedi needed every able person to continue the fight against the exiles.
A few years later Kolas began to become intrigued with the tales of the Jedi weapon masters of old and their proficiency for the marital arts. So much so that he took to using a vibro spear in his sparring sessions and began to inquire to any masters of the order that could lead him down the road to such skills. He eventually found an old Devaronian master named Helt who had studied the old ways. He would demand the master take him under his wing and teach him the ways of the old masters. Helt agreed so long as Kolas could prove he knew how to properly wield his saber and spear. After a long fight the master stood over Kolas laughing. It was the first time Kolas had ever lost and he didn't like it. Though the man's skill impressed the young Kage and he beamed as Helt agreed to train him further in his weapon skills. More years passed and Kolas' skill with weapons only grew. It wouldn't be long until the masters would approach Kolas and his trials would begin. In the time of war the trials were accelerated and Kolas easily passed. So it would be that at the age of 14 Kolas would become a Jedi Knight.
In the next years Kolas would join his fellow Jedi in the war against the exiles. He fought on many fronts, though was never able to make quite a name for himself as he was mixed in with common soldiers and other low level knights, but among his peers he would prove to me hard to match. Many of the darksiders would feel the sting of his spear or saber. As the war continued Kolas had to admit he admired the exiles. The way they fought was uninhibited and free. They didn't care about protecting the weak or defending the innocent. No they fought for their own goals, to meet their own desires head on. When he looked to the Jedi as the war raged, all he saw were hollow beings propped up by ideals that were outdated and would never lead to an end to the conflict.
A decade would pass without an end to the conflict. Kolas would continue to fight, earning more victories and scars in the the name of the "noble" Jedi knights. His skills became honed to a fine edge. As time passed it became that Kolas only truly felt alive while at war and lived to see his opponents fall before him. He assumed this had something to do with his further lack of respect for his fellow Jedi. Every battle and every kill he made brought him to admire the exiles more and more. The dark is a patient thing, and over the years Kolas had welcomed more and more of it's corrupting influence into his heart. This didn't frighten the man as the more he succumb the more powerful and free he felt.
The masters finally came to realize just how far he fell after a battle. Kolas had completely abandoned his objective to protect a village of farmers in order to chase down the enemy and seek a worthy fight. The village was slaughtered and when asked why Kolas gave them no regard and claimed, "If they wished to survive, maybe they should've fought to live. The pathetic beings instead trembled in their homes while other died for them. The wretches deserved to be ended." The masters then felt the overwhelming darkness in the Kage's heart though did not let on at that moment. He would be confronted while he trained. 3 knights and his old master had come to take him into custody. Kolas simply picked up his spear and challenged them. Though even Kolas was no match against a master and 3 fully trained knights. The fight would eventually spill out into the common area with young learners and other Jedi looked on. Kolas would manage to kill one of the knights as they fought through the camp. The others would prove too much and Kolas was forced to flee after receiving a nasty cut across his face from master Helt. He fled the camp with the last 2 knights close behind though Master Helt would stay behind. The chase would continue until Kolas finally manged to shake his former comrades. As he hid in the trees he would take one last look at his former teacher, only thinking that his talents were wasted among the Jedi. He would find passage off world and not look back.
He would go to his new brothers and sisters in darkness and offer gifts of his skill to win them over. He himself would re-attune his saber to the dark side bleeding the crystal within and join the battle against his former order. The war would continue for another few years before the exiles finally proved victorious over their kind hearted brethren. The victory would come at great cost to both sides however and the exiles now lacked enough manpower or focus to remain as a single force. Without an enemy to fight the Kage exile would quickly begin to lose purpose. Kolas would return to his home of Quarzite after the war was over. He felt going back to his roots, where he came from, would help him find some purpose to the galaxy. In the mean time he would continue to perfect his fighting skills and delve deeper into his dark abilities to await the day he'd be called on again to put them to the test.

Average height with stark white skin. His body is lithe with defined muscle and covered in many scars. His golden eyes are now streaked with red veins from the corruption of the darkside. Is clean shaven at all times and wears his long white hair down. The scar on his face is from the night he left the Jedi order, and he wears it as a sign of his defection from the Jedi.

Kolvas first and foremost is a driven man. Any task he sets his mind too will almost always be seen through to completion, be it a mission, training exercise, or new weapon to construct. It was this single mindedness that most likely led him down darker paths, as he became consumed with the thought that the dark side was the true warriors path. Truly a warrior is what Kolvas feels he is in mind and spirit, feeling that the Jedi can only claim to be warriors as long as they cling to their notions of protecting the innocent and weak of the galaxy. That being said, the man doesn't take pleasure in the suffering of those he feels are weak. He merely believes that such beings aren't even worth his time or ability and doesn't kill for the simple pleasure of it.
In social situations the Kage is generally found to be well spoken and for intents and purposes rather polite and charming. This can come off as a bit off putting to most even his fellow exiles whom many dwell in the anger and hatred. Kolvas finds these emotions are better suited to combat and conflict and see's no reason to brood at all times. Though despite this Kolvas usually doesn't make a habit of making too many friends, preferring the solitude of his forge and honing his skills. Though he's always happy to test his skills against a worthy foe.
Once combat begins, all pretense of politeness is dropped and his foe is met with a wall of focus. Though Kolvas doesn't use a light saber his combat style would most closely resemble Juyo outer focus but with roiling emotion just beneath the surface.
