Legend

this Blood Carver was part of a well-known political family, but was exiled from his family for killing his childhood friend during a hunting expedition. Adopted as an orphan, Ke Daiv learned that his benefactor's son was prophecied to die in battle. The son was kept away from any form of combat. However, the youth still had to kill a wild feragriff to prove his adulthood, so they were sent to a preserve on one of Coruscant's moons to kill the beast. Unfortunately, the prophecy came true when one of Ke Daiv's shots missed the feragriff and instead killed the other youth. His benefactor cursed him and exiled him. He found work with the Trade Federation as an assassin, and was part of a small group hired to kill Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker as a form of revenge for the Federation's loss of control following the Battle of Naboo. Ke Daiv tried to kill Anakin during a garbage pit race three years after the battle, but failed when Obi-Wan intervened. Ke Daiv was then hired by Wilhuff Tarkin to accompany Raith Sienar to Zonama Sekot. While there, Sienar told Ke Daiv of Tarkin's xenophobia, and tried to get the Blood Carver to work toward his own goals. Ke Daiv agreed with Sienar, and attempted to bond with his own Sekotan starship. However, the lifeforms of the planet rejected him, and Ke Daiv was forced to try and steal the ship acquired by Anakin and Obi-Wan. Ke Daiv failed to obtain the ship, and was killed in battle when Anakin unleashed an intense wave of Force energy at him. It was the first time Anakin had been forced to kill another being with the Force, and he greatly regretted it.
