History
Before The Sith Menace (2038-2000 BBY)
Geska was born on the planet Malastare in 2038 BBY and lived with his family in slavery. A few years after his birth, however, Jedi Master Degni arrived at Malastare and won Geska's freedom from his slave owners in a game of sabacc, after noticing Geska's Force Sensitivity.
After being brought to Coruscant by Degni and being accepted into the Jedi Order, he became a padawan for Degni. At some point, he became a member of the Jedi High Council and a Jedi Master.
In 2005 BBY, the Jedi Order acquired reports of a group of Sith on Coruscant. Geska, along with his fellow masters Donho Hapor, Nigde Scbel, Ge-Swi Jogra, Jonmi Mephi, Degni, Flao and the Jedi Knight Crosa Sowas, located the 7 Sith and engaged them. During the fight, several Sith lost their lives, including a powerful Kel Dor Sith named Gaz Beum. Only three Sith survived, Gaz's son Kor Beum, an Ortolan named Nur Pahwar and a Wookiee named Talqar. No Jedi were killed during the fight.
The Sith Menace Era
In 2000 BBY, Crosa Sowas contacted Geska through the communications system onboard the B.L.A.Z.E and with his help almost prevented the crash of the ship. After Crosa had found the Jedi Masters Ge-Swi Jogra, Donho Hapor and Jonmi Mephi onboard the remains of the B.L.A.Z.E, which had crash-landed on a garbagepit on the lower levels of Nar Shaddaa, Ge-Swi's astromech droid, R4-F3, opened the door to the storage room and freed the Geska, who pursued Vofor, a Bith Bounty Hunter sent after the Jedi. While the others tried to deal with Kor Beum and two Gamorrean Guards, Geska chased Vofor and engaged him in lightsaber combat.
In the meantime, Kor paralyzed the others and reminded them of the events of 2005 BBY, when his father had died. He then killed Donho Hapor out of revenge and left the Jedi to be captured by Gri'Got the Hutt, paralyzing Geska on the way out.
Soon the Jedi found theirselves captured by the Hutt crimelord and were informed that only Crosa was needed alive, the others would be killed by Kor soon enough in revenge for his father's death five years ago.
