last_kalligIbani and the Jed:
So, there are quite a few Jedi who would have had reason to write down/record stuff about Ibani/Darth Imperious and think fairly favorably of her. (Possibly of the 'oh woe, if only we had gotten to her first she would have been a great Jedi' varieety which would make Ibani roll her eyes, but still.) Whether any of it is still around, how accurate it is, and who has access to it would all be up in the air.
Grand-Master Satele Shan (The Yoda equivalent in Ibani's time period): An ally of Ibani's in dealing with threats against both the Republic and the Empire, also involved in the whole stop the Sith Emperor from devouring all life in the Universe thing. Definitely know her by title, might have figured out that Darth Imperious is Ibani Kallig since she's a pretty savvy lady.
Yadira Ban: Padawan to Satele Shan. Ibani was sent after a target on a ship the Padawan was guarding and beat her up and stole her lightsaber. Although she DID leave her alive, which is rather odd for a Sith.
Quorian Dorjis: A Jedi Knight that Ibani helped on Korriban. He was imprisoned, had his brain stuffed with fake info. Ibani was SUPPOSED to help him escape to spread said falso info, but she told him the truth and risked her life doing so. Definitely knows 'Ibani' might know that Ibani became Darth Imperious.
The Jedi Knight: No set name because it is a player character option. The Jedi Knight's storyline deals heavily with the Sith Emperor, so it would make a LOT of sense for them to have worked together frequently. I can't remember if the Jedi Knight winds up with a seat on the Jedi Council or not.
The Jedi Consular: Also no set name because player character option. Their storyline involves the Emperor only indirectly, but they could still have worked with Ibani. Definitely has a seat on the Jedi Council if I'm remembering correctly.
Palpatine stuff:
Given that he's a Sith history nerd and he ripped off the aesthetics of the Sith Empire era lock stock and barrel, I would be kind of weird if he DIDN'T know a lot about Darth Imperious. Especially since Darth Imperious would have had the whole 'can't die' rumors and killed the Sith Emperor, who achieved what Palpatine is kind of aiming for?
Not sure if it is established in Star Wars canon proper now, but I think the EU used to handwave Palpatine getting away with not being caught for years and years by saying he pulled some kind of Force thing on the entire galaxy that was tied to something powerful underneath the Jedi Temple, if I'm recalling right? Ibani's former master, Darth Zash, used something that VERY much resembled Palpatine's trick, so there's some justification there for Ibani being able to spot/unravel that if needed for plot. The difficulty could be anywhere, even up to 'Ibani dies but it doesn't stick because she still has her Ancestor's ghost bound.'
