The Old Republic's Cast Grows Larger

It seems like the fiction behind Star Wars: the Old Republic is growing larger and more complex with each passing day. It seems that way because it is, of course. The game has a truly massive collection of characters, worlds, and history. The newest additions to be unveiled are the leader of the Republic, an infamous bounty hunter, and a new Darth!
A recent post at the game's official site reveals three new characters and a hefty biography connected to each. Supreme Chancellor Janarus serves as the political head of the Republic. Jewl'a Nightbringer is a merciless bounty hunter who hunts the worst criminals in the galaxy. And Darth Jadus, is, well, a Dark Lord of the Sith.
