"Don't ever be afraid of what you feel, Vestara. Just know that you can use it. You must use it, or else it will use you."
―Olaris Rhea, to Vestara Khai
Olaris Rhea was a female Human Sith Lady in the Lost Tribe of Sith from the remote planet of Kesh. In 41 ABY, Rhea was appointed to be the Master of Sith Tyro Vestara Khai after Khai had encountered a Sith Meditation Sphere named Ship. Rhea and her new apprentice served in the Tribe's armada aboard the captured warship Eternal Crusader. After the members of the Tribe sensed Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker's presence in the Force two years later, Rhea and Grand Lord Darish Vol handpicked a strike team to bring down Skywalker and recover Ship, who had abruptly left Kesh. Using Khai's unique connection to Ship, the strike team, led by Rhea, tracked the Meditation Sphere to a planet in the Maw, where they encountered Abeloth, a female being who was able to control the world's deadly flora. She agreed to help keep the Sith safe while they searched for Ship. Meanwhile, the strike team's executive officer, Yuvar Xal, was plotting to overthrow Rhea and take command of the team for himself. Before he could execute his coup, the Meditation Sphere finally returned to the Sith.
Abeloth discovered Skywalker's location—along with his son, Ben Skywalker—to be Sinkhole Station, a small space station in the Maw, and Ship transported the surviving Sith there. Rhea led the strike team's ambush of the Skywalkers, and Xal initiated his coup during the battle. Due to Rhea's foresight, however, his betrayal failed, and he was killed by Khai, who was then captured by the Skywalkers. Khai escaped later during the battle; and as Ben prepared the Skywalkers' starship, the Jade Shadow, for flight, Rhea met up with Khai and the two remaining Sith. The other two were quickly dispatched by Luke, leaving only Rhea and her apprentice to duel him. The three fought on the turbolift that led to the hangar. As the lift's door opened, Rhea and Khai saw Ben in the Jade Shadow opening fire on Ship. Luke took advantage of their distraction and quickly killed Rhea, while Khai fled.
"You may as well stand, Vestara. We both know I'm not going to kill a talented apprentice over a few inviolable rules."
―Rhea, to Khai
Olaris Rhea was tall, with pale blonde hair and blue eyes. She was authoritative and, as one of the most powerful Sith in the Tribe, held great power in the Circle of Lords. Tall, slender, and graceful, she was also somewhat arrogant, and the lower-ranking members of the Tribe found her to be rather imposing.[1] Rhea was known to be a strict teacher; however, she had a soft spot for her apprentice. On the planet to which they tracked Ship in the Maw, Khai grew frustrated with Rhea for failing to see how critical their situation was, and Rhea noted that such disrespect was something that apprentices never lived to do twice. She listened to Khai, however, and, realizing her apprentice was correct, spared her life. Rhea was also exceedingly clever, foreseeing that Xal would attempt to carry out his coup during the battle with the Skywalkers, and giving both Khai and Walusari fake grenades to throw so that they would not be killed when Xal and his apprentice threw them back.
Powers and abilities
"The strike force will prepare to launch after Ship as soon as you are prepared under the command of Lady Rhea."
―Darish Vol, on Rhea
Rhea was a Force-sensitive, and trained in the ways of the dark side of the Force. As a member of the Circle of Lords, Rhea was one of the most powerful and respected Sith on Kesh. She was acknowledged as a strong leader, as she was put in command of the Tribe's strike team.[1] Rhea was proficient in telekinesis techniques, and was also a skilled lightsaber duelist, as she was able to hold her own, for a short time, against the Jedi Grand Master, Luke Skywalker. Khai even managed to injure him, though it was revealed he allowed this in order to establish a Blood Trail.
