- "Darkness can only survive if it avoids the light."
- — Dolstra Leidias
Dolstra Leidias was a Jedi Master and member of the Leidias Family during the time of the Republic Dark Age and the Ruusan Campaign. He served as a loyal soldier of the Army of Light right up until the end of the Seventh Battle of Ruusan when he was one of many Jedi who died to Skere Kaan's thought bomb.
Dolstra was, by all accounts, a fearsome warrior and one of the strongest Jedi to take part in the conflict. He was also known to be quite charismatic and a natural leader, able to easily rally his forces on the battlefield.
As the younger brother of Korsur Leidias, Dolstra often had the ear of his more headstrong sibling, acting as a tempering influence against Korsur's more stubborn impulses. It's been theorized that if Dolstra had survived the Seventh Battle of Ruusan, Korsur might have been more accepting of the changes proposed for the Ruusan Reformation and maybe even able to arrive at some compromises that would have kept the Leidias Family in the Jedi Order.
