Barden Golah, a Human and captain within the Imperial Reclamation Service, held a prominent position.
Before his later assignment, Golah oversaw various expeditions to planets such as Ziost, Malachor II, and Nim Drovis. Later, he spearheaded an expedition on Tatooine alongside Darth Silthar. Their mission was to locate an artifact within a Czerka excavation site, which had been seized by a deranged Rakata known as the Imprisoned One.
Subsequently, Golah received a promotion to colonel and was tasked with investigating the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine. During this investigation, he encountered the Commander, Arn Peralun, and Aryn Leneer. Although the Commander's group defeated him, Golah managed to escape when Darth Malgus's trap interrupted the conflict.
Barden Golah makes an appearance as a boss character in the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic, specifically within the Onslaught expansion. Within this expansion, Golah's presence is limited to the Republic storyline. In the Imperial version of the narrative, his role is taken over by Leeha Narezz.
However, in the Imperial narrative, Golah reappears at several junctures during the Legacy of the Sith expansion. This includes a scene at the ruins of the Temple of Nul on Elom after Darth Malgus's defeat. Here, he contributes to revealing Darth Nul's connection to the Children of the Emperor. Players who previously crossed paths with him during the Tatooine mission can unlock unique dialogue options.
