- "We can do this, but I’d rather not. This is such a nice establishment and you all still look rather fond of your limbs."
- — Kalja Maysul Leidias
Kalja Maysul Leidias is an ancestor to Kalja Sairu Leidias and one of many women in the Leidias Family to bear the "Kalja" name. A veteran of the Great War, Kalja showed remarkable prowess with a lightsaber, which likely accounted to her survival despite the worsening condition that the war took. After the war, she became bitter that the Jedi were fingered as the reason why the Galactic Republic lost to the Sith and left for the Outer Rim to get as far away from the ungrateful masses as she could.
Aside from her abilities with a lightsaber, Kalja was also somewhat infamous for how much alcohol she could put away at one time, which appeared to be due only to her own stamina and not any Force powers. During the war, she was known to often get into drinking contests with Republic soldiers during their off-duty hours.
Although many of her exploits have been lost to time, surviving records indicate that she was a warrior with few equals. She was known to have defeated the Anzat Rethe Frettan so completely that he distanced himself from the Leidias Family for thousands of years afterward. Tragically, her warrior-mentality did not always serve Kalja Maysul well, as she also killed her former student, Cadence Sinclair, when Cadence fell to the Dark Side and Kalja could think of only one solution.
