Kitsune (Star Wars)

Kitsune was a near-human female who lived during the early decades of the Galactic Empire’s reign and became a formidable figure of power during the Galactic Civil War. On her homeworld of Vahla, Kitsune lived as a shaman and Clan Mother of the Yokai Clan—a coven of Force-sensitive witches who used magicks to manipulate the wilderness around them and rule their male counterparts, the Mikoshi. Kitsune’s expertise in magicks was significant enough to attract the attention of the Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Sidious, who came to Vahla ostensibly to trade dark side Force teachings with Kitsune and take her as his own Sith apprentice. Instead, the Sith Lord abducted Kitsune's son Galen and took him as an apprentice in her place. Years later, he was presumed dead at the Battle of Qui’Re after sustaining mortal injuries, but his strength in the dark side allowed him to remain just barely alive. Although Kitsune was aware of Galen's incredible survival, she was unable to rescue him and thus remained on Vahla to plot her revenge against Sidious and his Sith.
