Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Mysteries of the Sith (1998)
Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Mysteries of the Sith is a 1998 shooter video game made by LucasArts.
Five years after Dark Forces II, Kyle Katarn is training a new apprentice when Imperial forces close on a quiet Rebel outpost. That apprentice is Mara Jade, once the Emperor's Hand and a smuggler, now learning the Jedi path. The expansion hands you her lightsaber and a growing set of Force powers, then sends you through Imperial ruins, ancient temples, and tight corridor firefights. It leans on the moody, mercenary corner of the old Expanded Universe, where a Jedi's past as a killer and a scoundrel sits close to the surface. First-person, deliberate, and heavy on atmosphere.

A few thoughts on Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Mysteries of the Sith
Mara Jade came out of Timothy Zahn's novels, so Star Wars - The Thrawn Trilogy - The Last Command is the natural next stop for her origins as smuggler and agent. For the same shadowy, morally grey corner of the galaxy, Star Wars - I, Jedi follows a Jedi student wrestling with a violent past.
Dive into the Expanded Universe on the page
This expansion lives in the old novel continuity, where smugglers become Jedi and killers seek redemption. For more of that dense, morally tangled lore, these books run from Corran Horn's own Jedi training to the origin of the Sith rule of two and the grim war of the New Jedi Order.
