He saw endless war for all his life and had grown very tired of it and hoped that Ilum would be the changing point of the conflict.

When confronted in the Republic base by an Imperial hero, Shai states that the Empire's efforts were futile; even if the Empire uses Ilum's Adegan Crystals to construct their stealth armada, the Republic will find a way to detect and destroy it, starting a cycle of creating superweapons until both superpowers annihilate eac
  • Shai (also spelt Sai, occasionally Shay, and in Greek, Psais) was the deification of the concept of fate in Egyptian mythology. As a concept, with no particular reason for associating one gender over another, Shai was sometimes considered female, rather than the more usual understanding of being male, in which circumstance Shai was referred to as Shait (simply the feminine form of the name). His name reflects his function, as it means (that which is) ordained.

  • Shai was a male Human admiral of the Republic Navy and one of the commanders of the Republic's military efforts on Ilum during the fighting during the Galactic War. He saw endless war for all his life and had grown very tired of it and hoped that Ilum would be the changing point of the conflict. He witnessed the Imperials kill the Jedi Master Jaric Kaedan and later tried to destroy the entire Imperial force on Ilum at once with the experimental ELX-25 long-range cannon. When confronted in the Republic base by an Imperial hero, Shai states that the Empire's efforts were futile; even if the Empire uses Ilum's Adegan Crystals to construct their stealth armada, the Republic will find a way to detect and destroy it, starting a cycle of creating superweapons until both superpowers annihilate each other or the galaxy. He then activated ray shields around himself and summoned his troops to attack the invader, but the Imperial managed to kill them all and destroy the shield generators. Despite being wounded, Shai defiantly proclaims that his death would not stop the Republic resistance, vowing that the Empire will fail because it tramples on freedom, whereas the Republic pull the weak up and become stronger as a result. The Imperial ignored his prattle and executed him.
  • Shai (also spelt Sai, occasionally Shay, and in Greek, Psais) was the deification of the concept of fate in Egyptian mythology. As a concept, with no particular reason for associating one gender over another, Shai was sometimes considered female, rather than the more usual understanding of being male, in which circumstance Shai was referred to as Shait (simply the feminine form of the name). His name reflects his function, as it means (that which is) ordained. As the god of fate, it was said that he determined the span of each man's life, and was present at the judgement of the soul of the deceased in duat. In consequence, he was sometimes identified as the husband of Mesenet, goddess of birth, or, in later years, of Renenutet, who assigned the Ren, and had become considered goddess of fortune. Because of the power associated in the concept, Akhenaten, in introducing monotheism, said that Shai was an attribute of Aten, whereas Ramses II claimed to be lord of Shai (i.e. lord of fate). During Ptolemaic Egypt, Shai, as god of fate, was identified with the Greek god Agathodaemon, who was the god of fortune telling. Thus, since Agathodaemon was considered to be a serpent, and the word Shai was also the Egyptian word for pig, in the Hellenic period, Shai was sometimes depicted as a serpent-headed pig, known to Egyptologists as the Shai animal. The concept of Shai' Gar is where an adversarial deity promotes the changing of your own fate.
