Kirak Infil'a was a [[Jedi]] of the [[High Republic Era]] who was active when the [[Guardian Protocols]] went into effect due to the [[Nihil conflict]]. He worked alongside Master Govena in the armory creating lightsaber blades. Due to the urgency of the Nihil conflict he helped create less ornate battle sabers with a focus on functionality over appearance in order to quickly replace sabers that were lost.<ref name="SOS 1" /> At some point, Infil'a earned the rank of [[Jedi Master|Master]] in the [[Jedi Order]].

Eventually, he took the [[Barash Vow]] and cut himself from the Order's activities, hoping to live alone inside the Force to atone for his transgressions and until his true path as a Jedi became clear. To do this, he relocated to the [[Al'doleem Jedi monastery|Jedi monastery]] on the river moon
