Atton Rand is a playable character in the Xbox and PC role playing videogame Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.

Bio

Atton is an Echani-trained pilot that the main character meets on the asteroid mining station Peragus II. Atton fought in the Mandalorian Wars as well as the Jedi Civil War. He originally fought with the Republic, and when Revan won against the Mandalorians and became Darth Revan, Atton joined him and the Sith. During the Jedi Civil War, Atton was part of an elite Sith Assassin unit, trained to resist Jedi force powers and sent on missions to kill or capture Jedi to be broken and converted to Sith. Later during the war, Atton was confronted by a female Jedi who informed him of his Force Sensitive nature, warning him that the Sith would undoubtedly come after him and break him into a Dark Jedi if they found out. Atton struck her down, but before her death, she opened up her mind to his, giving him a glimpse of the Force as she saw it. Enraged, Atton killed her, though the impression she left caused him to become disillusioned and desert the Sith.

After the Jedi Exile found him in a force cage at the Peragus Mining Facility, they continued to travel together after their mutual escape from Sith pursuers, but Atton acted quite impetuous against his fellow comrades and the protagonist. After discovering little bits of his mysterious past, Atton tells the Exile of his past. The Exile was able to forgive Atton for his crimes and, at Atton's request, trained him in the ways of the Jedi. Atton continued to travel with the Exile, participating in the defense of Telos against a Sith armada led by Darth Nihilus and, shortly after, taking the Exile to Malachor V, where the Exile went on to defeat Darth Sion and Darth Traya.
