"'I am the heir of Revan! And before me, you are nothing!' ~William Shan"

William Shan was a Human Jedi Knight during the days of the Galactic Republic. He was born in Corellia in 40 BBY to Darren and Kaila Shan, and he is a descendant of both Revan and Bastilla Shan. As a child he was captured by the Zygerrians in 37 BBY until a Jedi Master came to rescue him in 32 BBY when he was only 8 years old. The Jedi Master took him back to the Temple where he was accepted as a youngling and met a boy from Tatooine named Anakin Skywalker whom he became good friends with. He was made a padawan at the age of 12 in 29 BBY. His first lightsaber crystal was blue, and during the Clone Wars he witnessed his master getting shot while on Geonosis rescuing Anakin, Obi-Wan and Padme. During the War he was promoted to a Knight, and kept his master's lightsaber to honor him. And he was captured by the Sepratists and Dooku and they made clones of him in which some of them went insane. He also fell in love with Luminara Unduli's padawan named Barriss Offee. When he found out that his lover was the one who framed Ahsoka for bombing the Jedi Temple and murdering Letta. At the end of the Clone Wars during Order 66, Will was at the temple defending it from Darth Vader(Anakin) and Clone Troops. He got away from the Troopers and got a ride in Bail Organa's speeder and took him to Alderaan.

During the rise of the Empire he stayed on Alderaan and was made Leia Organa's bodyguard and protector. Will watched her grow up... in 13 BBY. He decided to find his girlfriend and ask her to marry him. Barriss accepted and went to Alderaan with Will. Shan talked to Barriss about why she bombed the Temple and framed Ahsoka.
