Kurj Skolia, also known as Kurj, was a Jagernaut primary who later became Imperator of the Skolian empire by entering a Lock, in the Saga of the Skolian Empire books by Catherine Asaro.

Kurj was the son of Roca Skolia and had a troubled past involving his mother and father. He and his mother were many years abused by Roca´s second husband Darr - Kurj´s stepfather. This hardly influenced Kurj´s emocional life and also his relationship with his mother.

He became a hard and often ruthless man. As an Imperator of Skolia he was both respected and feared. He used his influence to block his mother's participation in government affairs, particularly with respect to her attendance at the government's Assembly.

Kurj died in a battle which also cost the life of Ur Qox, the ruler of Eubian Concord. His successor as an Imperator of Skolia became his younger half-sister Sauscony Valdoria.
