Zenith
Returns: After Spirit of Vengeance
Alliance Alert: Relentless Ambition (short quest, not an alert)
Recruitable By: Jedi Consular only
Requirements: There’s no alert, so the requirement is that you need to have caught up to the Relentless Ambition Quest and be on a Jedi Consular. Relentless Ambition takes place after you compete Spirit of Vengeance, then the two small short quests Conflicting Priorities (where you get a hint about Zenith returning), then Relentless Ambitions. There’s another short quest immediately after called Whispers in the Force. If you are a Jedi Consular you will be able to invite him to join the Alliance or Flirt with him and have him join the Alliance and join as a companion. Non-Consular Republic characters will still meet with Zenith, but Zenith says he will not work with the Alliance as they are aligned with Imperial. Later, however, players will receive a letter saying Zenith will consider working with them in the future, but will not have him as a companion. Imperial-aligned players don’t see him at all as they are working against him.
Gift Preference Change: When Zenith returns to the Jedi Consular, he will favor Underworld Good gifts the most, while before he liked Military Gear best. He will now love Underworld Good gifts the most, and secondary favorite Military Gear and Weapon gifts.
