“ | Destiny is a lie. Fate is the falsest of hopes. I am beyond prophecy. | „ |
~ Arcann describing his philosophy |
Summary
Arcann is the son of the "Immortal Emperor" Valkorion, the twin brother of Thexan and the older brother of Vaylin. He is the main antagonist of Star Wars: The Old Republic - Knights of the Fallen Empire.
In his younger years, Arcann dreamed of a grander, more exciting future than the privileged life his father gave him. With his older twin brother, Thexan, he joined the Zakuul Knights at a young age, eager to prove himself.
In an attempt to gain their father's respect, the brothers proposed a plan to test the strength of the border worlds between Zakuul and the holdings of the Republic and Sith Empire. Valkorion sanctioned the assault, but allowed only Thexan to lead the Eternal Fleet. Defying his father's orders to remain on Zakuul, Arcann joined his brother at the front. Together, they were victorious, but Arcann suffered a serious injury in battle. Valkorion's indifference to their accomplishments pushed him over the edge―he attacked his father, only to be stopped by Thexan. Despite his deep love for his brother, Arcann turned on him and murdered him. Then, he set his sights on the throne of his father.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Force Barrier: Both an offensive and defensive Force power that creates a barrier or wall of Force energy around the intended target, be it self, friend, or foe. Depending on the strength of the individual, the barrier could only withstand a few attacks before collapsing. Arcann has shown incredible skill with this ability, his barriers being powerful enough to temporarily fend off the combined power of both the Sith Emperor and the Hero of Tython, which was potent enough to destroy dozens of ships and hundreds of pilots, and stated to be “infinitely” greater than the power to turn Jedi to ash.
- Force Healing: Accelerates the body's natural healing process at a rapid pace. Master practitioners of the art can even heal themselves from fatal injuries in a short span of time (Like being cooked alive, punctured lungs, etc).
- Force Lightning: An offensive Force technique that uses Force energy to produce electricity with one or two hands that stream outwards from the fingertips, its speed is usually great enough to catch an opponent off-guard even when prepared, and can be used either in bursts, or simply torrent out in an a gush of agony on its victim.
- Force Stealth: A power that was used by highly skilled Force-sensitives to mask their Force alignment (Light or Dark), their ability to use the Force, or even their entire presence. Arcann has shown the ability to hide his presence from even the Hero of Tython.
- Telekinesis: Arcann can use this through the Force to put his mind literally over matter, capable of blasting opponents, shielding himself or disarming people, its limits are only those of the creativity that Force User has.
- Telepathy: Can easily manipulate others mentally with the Force to trick, deceive, maim or even kill outright. Can also use this power externally or internally when it comes to illusion creation, manifestation, and manipulation.
- Tutaminis: Through the Force, Arcann can draw potentially harmful energy into his body and diffuse it or channel it away completely.
