Obi-Wan Kenobi, later known as Ben Kenobi was a Force-sensitive Human male from the Filo Universe. He was a legendary Jedi Master who played a significant role in the fate of the Skyriver galaxy during the Clone Wars as well as the First Multiverse War to defend the Galactic Republic from the Axis of Empires. He was the mentor of both Anakin and later on trained Luke Skywalker, training both in the ways of the Force. He had a long and tumultuous career that helped shape the fate of the entire galaxy as well as his home universe in conflict against the Combine and the Galactic Empire from the Viau Universe.
As a High Jedi General, Kenobi fought during many battles of the Clone Wars and the Multiverse Wars, and was one of the last members of the Jedi High Council. Even after his apprentice became a Jedi Knight, Kenobi and Skywalker fought together many times, becoming a widely renowned pair. Kenobi earned the sobriquet "the Negotiator" through his charm and calm demeanor as well as the quiet threat of his abilities with a lightsaber. Later in the war, Skywalker saved his life in a battle fought over Coruscant, after which Kenobi killed GeneralGrievous on Utapau. However, despite efforts of hopefully ending the war, news of an invasion spread across his home galaxy by the Empire of the Combine Race after the exposure of Sheev Palpatine as Darth Sidious, with the war extended and more bloodier as it expanded in multiple realities, including a parallel future of his ruled by the Empire. Obi-Wan became an important figure to the Republic and the Alliance of Nations.
History[]
Early Life[]
Obi-Wan Kenobi was born on the planet Stewjon in 35 BBG (1376 NE), the first son of a moderately wealthy family and was discovered to be force-senstive, he was taken to Coruscant to begin his Jedi training while still in his infancy which Kenobi believed that he had once visited, possessing vague, pleasant memories of playing with his brother, Kenobi would later conclude that these memories were visions from the Force. As Kenobi felt a brotherly bond with his former student, Lars too would be his brother.
He was placed with other Jedi younglings and received basic Initiate training alongside his peers in the Jedi Order's Temple and began training in several simple Force techniques by the age of three in 32 BBG. He studied in the ways of the Force and Jedi traditions under Grand Master Yoda, eventually coming to respect him and the Jedi Council greatly. He also received instruction in the art of lightsaber combat in the basic lightsaber forms and techniques. At some point before he was selected as a Padawan, Kenobi attended a class centered around meditation. Unlike how he acted as he got older, Kenobi, during his days as a youngling, gained a reputation for breaking rules and having a rebellious nature, resulting in very few Masters who were willing to train the boy as their Padawan. To curb Kenobi's behavior, Yoda searched for a teacher for Kenobi that had unorthodox methods, which would mold the student into rebelling by being dutiful.
Qui-Gon's Padawan[]
Around 22 BBG (1389 NE), Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn chose Kenobi as his Padawan learner when he was thirteen years old after observing his match in one of their duels. During his apprenticeship he became friends with Jape, a fellow Padawan who he kept correspondence with, and also maintained contact with crèche-mate Prie and the Mon Calamari Bant Eerin. In their first months together, Jinn attempted to adapt his teaching methods to suit Kenobi's strengths, but felt he failed to do so adequately. At some point during his training, Kenobi constructed his first lightsaber, modeled after Jinn's lightsaber hilt style and his own personality. As the pair struggled to establish a workable affinity, the Master continued to train his Padawan in the basic cadences of lightsaber combat, preventing him from picking a specialty. Jinn was proud of his apprentice's skills, and sparred with him in training sessions while at the Temple between missions. Kenobi, in turn, spent a significant amount of time in the training dojos to hone the techniques taught to him.

In their lessons, Jinn taught Kenobi there was a strength and nobility in restraint. As time passed, Kenobi's demeanor shifted to become more serious and respectful of the Council, in contrast to Jinn's usual way of approaching situations based on his instincts in the present. Both carried differing philosophies on focusing on the future versus the present, and interpreted the Force in varying ways. Despite their differences, Kenobi strived to be a good student, and supported his Master's hobbies regarding ancient Jedi prophecy research. To Kenobi's chagrin, the majority of his free time in the Temple was consumed by gathering information from the Jedi Archives and the holocron of prophecy under the watchful eye of the Jedi Master librarian Jocasta Nu. Over time, he learned the language Old Alderaanian, which many of the holocron's prophecies were written in. As an escape from the workload, Kenobi played rounds of the game dejarik in the lower levels of Coruscant in the evenings after finishing his Master's research requests.
Stark Hyperspace War[]
Protecting Satine Kryze[]
Kenobi and Qui-Got protecting Satine in the Civil War
Sometime between the years 19 BBG (1392) and 17 BBG (1394), Kenobi and Jinn spent years on the planet Mandalore protecting Duchess Satine Kryze from insurgents who were threatening her world. Bounty hunters were sent after them, forcing them to live as fugitives, never knowing what the next day would bring them. The mission forced them to work and fight together as a team, resulting in them forging a close bond.
Kryze called Kenobi by the nickname "Ben." During that time, they had an incident with a swarm of venom-mites on the terrestrial object Draboon, where Kenobi carried Kryze to safety. However, he fell and dropped the Duchess, who then acquired a scar as a result. Kenobi fell in love with Satine during his stay on Mandalore, in a moment the two were stuck inside a cave together, causing the two to have a intimate moment to express their feelings. But despite his feelings toward her, he continued with his training and was reassigned to another mission after his objectives were complete. Kenobi regretted leaving her, but ultimately followed the Jedi Code he had sworn to live by. Meanwhile, Satine chose to stay and lead her people, having not asked Kenobi to stay, knowing it would have been a difficult choice, but unknown to Kenobi at the time that time, Satine was pregnant with his child).
Invasion of Naboo[]
|
Main article: Battle of Naboo |
In 10 BBG (1401 NE), by the time Jinn considered Kenobi to be ready for his trials, they were sent by Galactic Republic Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum to negotiate with the Trade Federation, who had set up a blockade around the planet of Naboo. Both Jedi extensively studied political documents and trade relations between the parties prior to the endeavor, sensing its necessity. The two Jedi were tasked with negotiating a settlement with Trade Federation representatives.
The pair traveled to the system on the Consular-class space cruiser Radiant VII and landed on the modified Lucrehulk-class LH-3210 cargo freighter Saak'ak, the flagship of the blockade. There, Kenobi and Jinn were brought to a conference room, where protocol droid TC-14 informed them that a Trade Federation representative would be with them shortly, and invited the pair to make themselves comfortable. However, upon learning that the pair were Jedi from TC-14, Viceroy Nute Gunray of the Trade Federation instead sent the protocol droid back into the room to distract them, with the droid offering Kenobi and Jinn drinks. Gunray then ordered his security to get rid of the Jedi and their assets, with an overhead turret destroying the Radiant VII and its crew.
The two Jedi sensed the loss of their vessel and rose from their seats, drawing their lightsabers before noticing poisonous dioxis gas being pumped into the room around them and holding their breaths. OOM-series security droids were then sent to confirm that the Jedi were dead, however Kenobi and Jinn escaped into the hallway and destroyed the battle droids before making their way to the Saak'ak's bridge. Kenobi held off the battle droids while Jinn attempted to cut through the doors to the bridge. However, droidekas summoned by Gunray arrived, and the two Jedi were forced to flee into a nearby ventilation shaft, using Force speed to escape. The two escaped to Naboo's surface by stowing away on separate C-9979 landing crafts in the Saak'ak's hangar bay, discovering a droid army preparing to invade Naboo in the process.
Rescuing Queen Amidala[]
After arriving on Naboo, Kenobi was attacked by two Federation Single Trooper Aerial Platforms while en route to Jinn's location. He was rescued by his Master, who was accompanied by Jar Jar Binks, a member of Naboo's native Gungan species. After some debate, Binks agreed to lead the two Jedi to Otoh Gunga, a hidden underwater Gungan city where the group was brought before the Gungan leader Boss Nass. Though unable to convince the Gungans to help the humans of Naboo, Jinn use the mind trick on Nass to obtain Gungan transport, to allow them to reach Naboo's capital city Theed. Piloting the transport through the planet's core, the trio was attacked by an Opee sea killer at one point, which led to the ship being damaged and electronic systems shutting down. Kenobi quickly fixed the issue with some rewiring, and after a brief encounter with a Sando Aqua Monster, Kenobi, Jinn, and Binks reached Theed.
Upon their arrival, the group discovered that the Trade Federation had already taken control of Theed, finding empty streets. The two Jedi came across a group of battle droids taking Queen Amidala and several others to an internment camp, and quickly engaged the droids, freeing the queen and her companions. Following this, the Jedi moved to a nearby hangar, intending to use a Naboo starship to take the queen to Coruscant. Kenobi moved to liberate several pilots who were held prisoner by battle droids, while his master took the rest of their group to a ship. After a brief skirmish, the group fled Naboo in the queen's starship in an attempt to reach Coruscant with news of the Trade Federation invasion. During the escape, the ship's hyperdrive was damaged by droid starfighters, preventing them from jumping straight to Coruscant and forcing them to instead land on Tatooine for repairs.
Return of the Sith[]
After landing on the desert planet, Kenobi remained on the ship, while Jinn, Binks, the droid R2-D2, and Amidala, who was disguised as a handmaiden, went to search for a new hyperdrive unit. While searching, Jinn discovered Anakin Skywalker, a young enslaved human from whom he retrieved a blood sample for analysis, believing the child to be strong in the Force. Jinn sent the data to Kenobi on the ship, with instructions for Kenobi to analyze it. Kenobi's analysis revealed that the boy's midi-chlorian count was higher than that of any Jedi. When Jinn arrived, accompanied by Skywalker, Darth Maul, a Sith apprentice, attacked Jinn prompting Kenobi to order the ship to take off, with Jinn leaping into the ship as it ascended. The group then proceeded to Coruscant.
Upon their arrival on the planet, Jinn and Kenobi went directly to the Jedi Council to report on the mysterious attacker, whom Jinn believed to be a Sith Lord. After being briefed on what to do about their mysterious attacker, Jinn discussed about Skywalker with the Council, believing him to be the Chosen One they have prophesied. Nevertheless, the Council was determined that the boy not be trained. However, Jinn persevered, telling them that he would take the boy as his Padawan, despite the Jedi Code's restrictions, but Kenobi insisted he was ready to take the trials, and his master agreed. Instead of discussing the matter further, Mace Windu sent the pair back to Naboo to protect the Queen and also as an attempt to lure out the mysterious assailant.
After returning to Naboo, Binks located the Gungans and Amidala, revealing herself to be the true Queen, begged Boss Nass to provide assistance in fighting the droid armies of the Trade Federation. Boss Nass agreed to fight the droids as a diversion, while the Queen's forces slipped into Theed and captured Gunray. However, they soon encountered Maul once again and engaged in a duel with him, biding time for Amidala and her forces to reach the throne room. During the duel with Maul, Kenobi was separated from his master and forced to watch as Maul impaled Jinn with his double-bladed lightsaber so, when the opportunity arose, Kenobi, filled with rage, retaliated against the Sith. However, the Dathomirian Zabrak gained the upper hand and knocked Kenobi into a nearby shaft, where he was barely able to grab onto a knob jutting out from the side before falling to his death. Maul used this opportunity to kick his lightsaber into the shaft. Despite his predicament, Kenobi was able to use his Master's lightsaber to cut the Sith in half, whose body fell down the shaft, killing the Sith apprentice. Kenobi then ran to his master's side and promised a dying Jinn that he would train Skywalker.
The Clone Wars[]
Battle of Geonosis[]
First Multiverse War[]
Liberation of Mandalore[]
Imperial-Republic Conflicts[]
Battle of Kocarr[]
Obi-Wan was among the Jedi selected by the council to assist the Alliance in the Lo'opik Universe to bring a more peaceful relations between the empires of the Eden Cluster in 1503 NE, both he and Cody discovered a Gallentean Freighter during the Battle of Kocarr after assisting the Calderi State yet only to bring minimal casualties to both sides as possible, finding their data files of the Gallanteans transporting rare crystal minerals through a dimensional gate with Imperial Star Destroyers, uncertain for what purpose but assumed be used to gain an advantage against their enemies. Nevertheless, he gave his report to the Republic and the New Republic of this development of the Empire's plot.
Personality[]
In his youth, the loyal and dedicated Obi-Wan Kenobi possessed a dry sense of humor and sarcastic wit, yet he dealt with a lot of emotional anxiety. Yoda said that he sensed Qui-Gon Jinn's defiance in him, but spoke very highly of him nonetheless. Anakin found out he was much like him when he was his age: rebellious and willful, described as breaking the rules laid out by the Jedi left and right.
Jinn reflected upon Obi-Wan's considerable knowledge and potential; he also considered his Padawan a lot wiser than him. Despite having been apprenticed to the radical Qui-Gon Jinn, Kenobi was relatively orthodox in his views. Kenobi had a strong friendship with Commander Cody, who saved his life aboard an Arquitens-class light cruiser when the corridor was blown off by General Grievous. Cody reached out and grabbed Kenobi's hand before the General was sucked into the vacuum of space.
As a young Jedi Knight, Kenobi was cynical, though wise beyond his years. His humble and soft-spoken demeanor belied his warrior prowess. Despite his numerous complaints during flight, he was also a skilled pilot. In many ways, he represented the strength of the old Jedi Order: steadfast, selfless, and modest. His later skill at resolving disputes without a single battle would earn him the sobriquet The Negotiator.
Over time, Kenobi lost some of his youthful audacity and assumed the role of a more cautious and conservative mentor to Anakin Skywalker, who was in many ways his opposite in personality.
Obi-Wan often thought out plans and strategies rather than leaping into action. He would usually place his hand on his chin or stroke his beard as he thought. This was a common trait of the Jedi Master, one that his apprentice Anakin Skywalker did not share.
