During the [[Sith Lord]] [[Darth Angral]]'s [[Desolator crisis|war of vengeance]] upon on the [[Galactic Republic]] in [[3,643 BBY]], the [[Jedi Master]] [[Orgus Din]] '''infiltrated''' Angral's warship ''[[Oppressor (Harrower-class)|Oppressor]]'' in an attempt to eliminate the [[Sith]].

In [[3,643 BBY]], during the [[Cold War]] between the [[Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|Sith Empire]], the [[Jedi Master]] [[Orgus Din]] '''infiltrated''' the ''[[Oppressor (Harrower-class)|Oppressor]]'', the warship of the [[Sith Lord]] [[Darth Angral]], on the edges of the [[Alderaan system]]. Din intended to eliminate the [[Sith]], who was [[Desolator crisis|waging war]] on the Republic as a result of his son [[Tarnis (Sith Lord)|Tarnis]]'s [[death]] at the hands of [[Hero of Tython|Din's former apprentice]], but the [[Jedi]] was captured by the [[starship]]'s security forces and brought before Angral. The Sith Lord killed the [[Jedi]], broadcasting the execution live on the [[HoloNet]], and then jettisoned Din's body into [[Realspace|space]] before departing the [[star system]]. However, Din was able to plant a [[homing beacon]] on the ''Oppressor'' before his death, allowing the Republic to track the vessel to the [[Uphrades system]].

==Prelude==

+

{{Quote|I haven't been searching for the apprentice. I've been hunting Darth Angral—and I just found his cruiser.|Orgus Din|Star Wars: The Old Republic}}

+

In [[3,643 BBY]],
during the [[Cold War]] between the [[Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|Sith Empire]], the [[Sith Lord]] [[Tarnis (Sith Lord)|Tarnis]] was [[Death|killed]] in a [[Duel in the Jedi Temple ruins|duel]] with a [[Hero of Tython|young Jedi Knight]] on the Republic's [[capital]] [[planet]] of [[Coruscant]]. However, Tarnis's death was witnessed by his father [[Darth Angral]], and the elder [[Sith]] [[Desolator crisis|declared war]] upon the Republic and the [[Jedi Order]] in revenge, using information on the [[Republic superweapon initiative]] given to him by his son—who had been undercover as a Republic [[scientist]] before his death—to seize control of the Republic's [[superweapon]] projects.
{{TORcite|type=class|Jedi Knight|Race to the Ruins|Coruscant}}
One of these projects was the [[Death Mark laser]], which was being developed on the planet [[Alderaan]], and Angral's apprentice [[Nefarid]] was able to capture the weapon despite [[Jedi Master]] [[Orgus Din]]'s attempts to defend the weapon.

+

+

Din, who was the former teacher of the [[Jedi Knight]] who had killed Tarnis, was rescued from the ruins of the [[Mensaav Laboratory]]—the research facility that housed the Death Mark project—from his former student, and the two [[Jedi]] learned that Nefarid was randomly targeting [[Alderaanian]]s with the Death Mark.
{{TORcite|type=class|Jedi Knight|Siege Hunter|Alderaan}}
The Imperial [[spy]] [[Aleyna Hark]] had been seen near the [[House Thul compound|mountain compound]] of the Alderaanian noble [[Duke]] [[Horis Thul]], and while the Knight rushed to the compound to prevent Thul's [[assassin]]ation, Din claimed that he would track down Nefarid and the Death Mark.
However, Din lied—following the call of [[the Force]], he located Angral's warship, the ''[[Oppressor (Harrower-class)|Oppressor]]'', on the edges of the [[Alderaan system]].

+

+

==The mission==

+

[[File:Oppressor.png|thumb|right|250px|The ''Oppressor'']]

+

{{Quote|Pity you didn't bring your student. I could kill you both. Tell me, Jedi. Are you afraid to die?''"
"''There is no death. There is only the Force.''"
"''If there is no death… where is my son?|Darth Angral and Orgus Din|Star Wars: The Old Republic}}

+

Deciding to put a stop to the crisis involving Angral, Din prepared to board the ''Oppressor'' and confront the Sith. When contacted by his former apprentice, Din confessed the truth, and he wished the Knight luck on confronting Nefarid in the [[Nefarid's hideout|Sith's stronghold]]. Din infiltrated the ''Oppressor'' before it left the [[star system]], but he was only able to plant a [[homing beacon]] on the [[starship]] before he was detected by the vessel's security forces. Wounded, the Jedi Master was brought before Angral on the ship's bridge, and the Sith Lord broadcast a transmission of the events on the bridge across the entire [[HoloNet]]. Din's former apprentice had just [[Battle in Nefarid's hideout|attacked Nefarid's base]] on Alderaan, and the Sith decided to display the feed from the ''Oppressor'' in order to torment his opponent. Upon being presented with Din, with whom Angral had maintained a rivalry since the end of the [[Great Galactic War]] between the Republic and the Empire almost a decade earlier, the Sith Lord mocked his opponent's attempt and questioned whether Din was ready to die. Angral then [[Shiak|stabbed]] the Jedi through the abdomen, killing his opponent.

+

+

==Aftermath==

+

{{Quote|Darth Angral broadcasted Orgus's execution over the HoloNet. Left the body floating in space for us to find. A Republic shuttle just recovered the remains from the edge of the Alderaan system. I'm sorry.|General [[Var Suthra]]|Star Wars: The Old Republic}}

+

Before departing the Alderaan system, Angral ordered Din's body to be shot into space, though a Republic [[shuttle]] later recovered the Jedi Master's corpse and returned it to the Jedi homeworld of [[Tython]] for a proper burial. Despite witnessing Din's death, the Knight was able to defeat Nefarid in battle and destroy the Death Mark.
Angral then traveled to the [[Uphrades system]], where he used his recently-constructed [[Desolator (superweapon)|Desolator]] superweapon to [[Devastation of Uphrades|attack]] the Republic [[agriworld]] of [[Uphrades]]—an action that killed millions of civilians. [[General]] [[Var Suthra]] of the [[Republic Military]] used Din's tracking beacon to locate the ''Oppressor'',
though Din's former student was not able to catch up to Angral until the Sith attacked Tython itself and forced a [[Battle of the Oppressor|confrontation]] with the young Jedi.

+

==Behind the scenes==

+

Orgus Din's mission to the ''Oppressor'' first appeared in ''[[Star Wars: The Old Republic]]'', a [[video game]] released by [[BioWare]] and [[LucasArts]] in [[2011]]. During the Jedi Knight class mission "Facing Lord Nefarid," players witness Din's death before fighting Nefarid in his hideout.
