- "And you are prepared to accept our offer?"
"Oh yes. As Rikkar-Du himself pointed out, the old ways must sometimes adapt to new realities."
"Serve us well, old man. You see the price paid by those who refuse." - ―Darth Kruhl and Kassek-Ka
Kassek-Ka was a male Codru-Ji clan leader. In 137 ABY, another clan head named Rikkar-Du was contacted by Darth Kruhl with a proposal of giving him power over the clans of Munto Codru if he submitted to the Empire under Darth Krayt. At a meeting of the heads of the clans attended by Kassek-Ka, Rikkar-Du attempted to convince the other leaders that they must unite to oppose Imperial rule. Kassek-Ka protested the idea of an alliance under one leader, saying it was not of their old ways—plotting, kidnapping, and coups.[1]
After the meeting broke up, Rikkar-Du visited with his wife, Tassa, and told her to go back to their tent with their son, Jassar. Some time after Rikkar-Du left for the temple and Jassar had run off from his mother, Kassek-Ka killed Tassa. Darth Kruhl confronted Rikkar-Du over disclosing his offer. When Jassar tried to defend his father, Khrul killed him before assassinating Rikkar-Du, an action that Khrul and Kassek-Ka had agreed upon and a message about defying the Sith. Kassek-Ka then confirmed he would accept Darth Khrul's offer and adapt to the new reality.[1]
Behind the scenes
Kassek-Ka appeared in Legacy (2006) 13. Due to the lettering of the comic using all capital letters, it is unclear within the issue if the third "k" is capitalized.[1] However, it is written as uppercase in the 2008 reference book The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, in which the character is mentioned in Tassa's entry.[2]
