Following the beginning of the Sith/Jedi Galactic War, which began at the Battle of Coruscant, Jecov Raven-sky was a member of the Jedi Order of the Old Republic. He was known to some as the Jedi who never utilized the Force, simply because for him, it was weaker. He excelled, however, in lightsaber combat and other physical ideals of the Jedi Order. He was Knighted at around the age of 30, after training as a Jedi his whole life. Then, during his Knighting ceremony, a Sith Lord known as Adhoura struck down his Master.
