    Tyvokka 

Tyvokka

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/225461_11221_tyvokka.png

Species: Wookiee

Homeworld: Kashyyyk

Appears in: Republic (flashback only)

«Thank you, Plo, for giving me another opportunity to control my temper.»

The master of Plo Koon and numerous other Padawans. By the time Plo Koon's training was complete, Tyvokka held a seat on the Jedi High Council. During the Republic's bacta shortage crisis, he was sent on a mission to end Stark Collective's bacta raiding of Trade Federation ships, but lost his life. This mission resulted in the Stark-Hyperspace War, and Plo Koon succeeded Yvokka on the Jedi High Council in honor of his late master's dying wish.


  • Brutal Honesty: He makes his opinions and comments known even if he has no evidence to back up his claims or it's rude. Meanwhile, Plo Koon is a Nice Guy that is modest and polite, something that Tyvokka is annoyed by and makes sure his Padawan knows that.
  • Only a Flesh Wound: Despite being mortally wounded, he put off getting immediate medical attention and instead continued to provide war room tactics.
  • So Proud of You: Despite whatever he feels about Plo Koon, he is proud of him, and admits it as he dies.

Species: Human

Appears in: Republic | Jedi Starfighter | Tales | Empirenote 

"A Jedi should have no possessions. Not even an identity. I gave mine up to show humility before the Force."


  • Caring Gardener: After the Jedi Purge she's seen trying to nurse a dying species of flower back to its old glory. Some of her force powers seem to involve vegetation control.
  • Combo Platter Powers While most Star Wars Jedi or Sith are gifted with telekinesis, the ability to sense danger, enhanced reflexes, Force Persuasion, and the occasional additional ability like Force lightning, the Dark Woman can also turn invisible, walk through walls, teleport, heal people with the Force, and control plants.
  • Cool Old Lady: A wry old woman with some very unusual Jedi powers.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: She wears black and even has the title "the dark woman" but is a light jedi.
  • Do Not Call Me "Paul": She dislikes being called by her real name, believing that a Jedi having no attachments should extend to their name. She doesn't care that her nickname, "the Dark Woman", sounds evil.
  • Green Thumb: She can use the Force to control plants.
  • Intangibility: She's mastered the rare art of using the force to bend matter, letting her walk through walls.
  • Invisibility: She can also bend light with the force to make herself seemingly disappear from the naked eye.
  • My Greatest Failure: Failing to rescue Aurra Sing.
  • Meaningful Name:
    • "Anya" means "grace". Of course, she's a Jedi.
    • In Japanese, "kuro" means "black". Darkness is associated with the color black, you know.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Gives one to Vader when he comes for her.
    Vader: There is no turning once a Dark path is taken. You of all people should understand that.
    The Dark Woman: (eyes hardening) What I understand is some paths are easier to tread... for a coward.
  • Training from Hell: Has a reputation for using unusually tough training methods on her students.
  • You Are Better Than You Think You Are: She gives some subtle lines in this vein to Vader, urging him to leave the dark side.
    Vader: There is no escape from the dark side.
    The Dark Woman: Is that what you believe?

For info on Darth Krayt, see the Star Wars: Legacy – One Sith page.


  • An Arm and a Leg: A fight with Obi-Wan loses him an arm.
  • Dual Wielding: Uses both his lightsaber and his father's.
  • The Exile: After being defeated by Obi-Wan, the Sand People banish him for showing his skin, something they forbid, and for losing an arm.
  • Face–Heel Turn: Went from a Jedi Master to a vicious warlord of the Sand People. He'd eventually fall to the Dark Side and take on the identity of Darth Krayt, Big Bad of the Legacy series and leader of the One Sith.
  • From Nobody to Nightmare: He starts off as just another Jedi. After Order 66, he manages to lead the Sand People on a vicious crusade across Tatooine. And after that, he went on to become Darth Krayt, leader of the One Sith.
  • It's All My Fault: Anakin told him about the incident involving the Sand People and his mother, but Hett didn't inform anyone else, believing Anakin would resolve the matter himself. He understandably took it hard when he learnt who Darth Vader was.
  • Walking Spoiler: He becomes Darth Krayt, the Big Bad of the Legacy comic series.

Dass Jennir

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/459985_dass_jennir.jpg

  • Walking the Earth: Travels the galaxy as a nomadic hero after the purge.
  • Weak, but Skilled: His connection to the Force was seen as average by his fellow Jedi. His master instead encouraged him by saying that he should use it to force his opponents to fight on his own terms, and Yoda encouraged him by saying that the Galaxy still needs him.

    Fay 

Fay

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fay_republic_tv_tropes.jpg

Species: Near-Human (speculated to be Sephi)

Appears in: Republic

  • The Ageless: Her Healing Factor effectively made her immortal.
  • Healing Factor: Her unique Force connection gives her one, though she loses it at the worst time when she transfers her Force reserves to Obi-Wan after being stabbed through the chest by Ventress. If not for having to aid Obi-Wan's escape that way, Fay would have been able to recover from even the wounds Ventress dealt her.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: She sacrifices her Force reserves to ensure Obi-Wan can escape after Ventress and Durge trap them in a Lethal Lava Land. While she'd otherwise have survived, this coupled with being Impaled with Extreme Prejudice by Ventress is enough to finish her off.
  • Meaningful Name: She's an ageless, extremely powerful, almost mythical Space Elf named Fay
  • Mind over Matter: Even among the Jedi, Fay is notable for relying entirely on the Force when fighting. She stopped carrying a lightsaber when she was knighted.
  • Nice Girl: She's quite polite and courteous to Obi-Wan.
  • One-Shot Character: She's only seen or mentioned in a single issue.
  • The Paragon: She's a Living Legend know for resolving conflicts by bringing a feeling of peace.
  • Really 700 Years Old: Thanks to her Healing Factor, Fay is in the area of seven hundred years old.
  • Shrouded in Myth: Since completing her apprenticeship centuries ago, Fay has wandered the Outer Rim, solving conflicts wherever the Force takes her. Most Jedi don't believe she exists, but thanks to Yoda, who knew her personally when she was an apprentice, the Council knows better and keeps a close eye on all rumors about her appearance.
  • Space Elves: Her species is never stated and while it's speculated that she's a Sephi, Master Fay is clearly supposed to be a stand-in for High Fantasy elves. Complete with a calm demeanor, biological immortality and a great mastery of "magic" or in her case, Force abilities.

    Glaive 

Glaive

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/glaive.jpg

Species: Human

Appears in: Republic

A male human and Jedi Master of Padawan Zule Xiss. Glaive is a huge and brutish man with little tact or patience, although he is a fierce warrior. During the Clone Wars, he and Zule went with Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan Anakin Skywalker on a mission to investigate a Gungan colony on the moon of Ohma-D'un.


  • The Big Guy: He is probably one of the most physically imposing Jedi in the order, and relies on brute strength to solve problems.
  • Jerkass: He is not very well liked amongst the Jedi due his brutish nature. Even Zule admits to hating him after his death.
  • Manly Facial Hair: A mustached guy with thick forearms and a good combat style.
  • Off with His Head!: He is decapitated by Asajj Ventress during the mission to Ohma-D'un.
  • Papa Wolf: While he and Zule may have a rough relationship he's quick to move to her defense when she's injured.

    Kai Hudorra 

Kai Hudorra

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kaihudorraheadshot.jpg

Species: Bothan

Appears in: Republic | Dark Times

A survivor of Order 66.


  • Benevolent Boss: Hudorra is very generous and kind towards the employees of the casino he purchases after Order 66. After less than a year of working for him, his entire staff is willing to risk their lives for him once they find out he's a Jedi. Hudorra is both touched and distressed by his staff's willingness to risk their lives for him, and Force persuades them to get out of harm's way.
  • Fling a Light into the Future: Anticipating his death at Vader's hands, he leaves behind a message for Dass to keep the Jedi Order alive, wishing him that the Force may be with them all.
  • Genius Bruiser: Hudorra has a quick and calculating mind, but it's also occasionally emphasized that he's quite burly and a good swordsman.
  • Laser Blade: His lightsaber color is green.
  • Pragmatic Hero: Hudorra has a strong sense of decency, but he's realistic about which battles to fight and is willing to stray from the Jedi Code to keep himself and the Padawan accompanying him alive. In the days after Order 66, he does things like steal a bag of money from a slaver and use Force persuasion to make several bar patrons pick a fight with the clones pursuing him. Rather than fight back against The Empire, he tosses his lightsaber down a garbage chute and goes into hiding in the hope that he can outlive the Empire and resume being a Jedi after its fall. He also uses the Force to cheat at gambling to finance his new life.

    K'Kruhk

    Sian Jeisel 

Sian Jeisel

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sian_jeisel_republic_tv_tropes.jpg

Homeworld: Devaron

Appears in: Jedi | Republic | Dark Times

"All Jedi lie, Vos. Haven't you heard? It's part of our mystique."


  • The Fettered: She leads a faction of Jedi who view the Senate as corrupt and are reluctant to aide them against the Separatists.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: She dies while letting others escape during Order 66.
  • One-Steve Limit: Averted; there is a Xiaan Amersu and Sian Jeisel. The both of them are named after Jan Duursema's daughter, Sian.
  • Throw It In!: Jan Duursema's daughter, Sian (whose name was also the origin of Xiaan Amersu's), cosplayed as Master Jeisel at Celebration III. Since the caption said "Sian Jeisel" and Jeisel's full name was not known at the time, some fans were led to believe that her name was Sian Jeisel. Became Ascended Fanon when it got put into an All There in the Manual.
  • What Could Have Been: She was originally going to be a survivor of the Jedi Purge according to an early version of an All There in the Manual, but it was discarded and her death in Dark Times is final.

    Tholme 

Tholme

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tholme_republic_tv_tropes.jpg

Species: Human

Appears in: Republic

A male human, Tholme was a powerful Jedi who was skilled at manipulation, spying, and combat. His skills at subterfuge made him a vital part of secret Jedi missions, and key player in the Clone Wars. He trained both Quinlan Vos and Aalya Secura and had a close relationship with fellow Jedi Master T'ra Saa.

He is a major character in the Republic comic series.


  • Dark Is Not Evil: He wears dark robes, has a rather sinister appearance at times, and often takes actions that flirt with breaking the Jedi Code and the dark side, but he is a dedicated Jedi who seeks to uphold the values of the Republic.
  • Eye Scream: He lost his left eye dueling Count Dooku on Bakura shortly after the Battle of Geonosis.
  • Faking the Dead: A specialty of his: he can enter an Anzati Death Trance, which can fool his enemies into thinking him dead, only for him to emerge from it and wreck havoc on them when they least expect it.
  • Guile Hero: He specializes in creating complex plots, overseeing spies, and manipulating enemies of the Jedi.
  • Handicapped Badass: Averted: his right leg was crushed by rocks in his duel with Dooku, leaving him with a severe limp. Tholme refused to get a artificial replacement, instead using a cane, and ceased going on missions for most of the Clone Wars. When he does take the field again, he gets his leg replaced, realizing that his own dislike of cybernetics had clouded his judgment and prevented him from getting involved in several conflicts where his presence would have been very beneficial.
  • Killed Offscreen: He passed away sometime after the group hid out on Kashyyyk after Order 66.
  • Life Will Kill You: He avoided Order 66 due to being on Nar Shaddaa with T'ra Saa and Khaleen Hentz at the time, but eventually passed away from old age on Anzat.
  • Lost Lenore: He becomes this to T'ra Saa after he dies.
  • Master Swordsman: Even Count Dooku acknowledges his skills with a lightsaber, believing him to be one of the few Jedi who truly understands how to use one.
  • Meaningful Name: His characterization is based off of Sherlock Holmes. His alias during a mission to Devaron was "Miles Croft", a reference to Mycroft Holmes, the brother of Sherlock Holmes.
  • Only One Name: He has no last name.
  • The Spymaster: He runs the Jedi Order's spy network and handles the assignments of any Jedi undercover.
  • Worthy Opponent: Count Dooku regards him as one, and has a lot of respect for Tholme.
    Dooku: I really must compliment you, Master Tholme. You've kept up your dueling skills better than most Jedi. Too many use it merely to deflect blaster bolts. Inelegant. We share a respect for the old ways, you and I - and more. You have seen the corruption as I have. There must be change. Embrace it! Join me!

    T'ra Saa 

T'ra Saa

    Zao 

Zao

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zao_republic_tv_tropes.jpg

Species: Veknoid

Appears in: Republic | Dark Times

"I am but a leaf blown by the winds of the Force. I trust my purpose in being anywhere will eventually be revealed to me."

A blind, elderly Jedi Master. When the Dark Side of the Force became of notice after the appearance of Darth Maul during the Blockade of Naboo crisis, he stopped taking on formal missions assigned by the Jedi High Council and instead went to wherever the Force took him, believing that the Jedi Order had become misguided in helping a corrupt Republic. He refused to take up arms when the Clone Wars began, also believing it to be against the will of the Force. Though he survived Order 66 with other Jedi, he left their hideout to find Sidirri after she ran away.


  • Beneath Notice: He survives Order 66 due to not being directly involved with the war effort.
  • Blind Seer: A sightless Jedi with good senses, capable of sensing where someone sits on the balance of the force and helping them find it out.
  • Cane Sword: His lightsaber is also his walking stick.
  • Gonk: He looks pretty nasty, which is dissonant with how he thinks.
  • Knight Errant: Zao maintains little contact with the Jedi hierarchy and lets the Force guide him across the Galaxy to provide help wherever he's needed. He even maintains this lifestyle after Order 66.
  • Meaningful Name: His name is adapted from tao.
  • Opt Out: Zao doesn't take part in the Clone Wars, which saves him from dying in Order 66.
    Zao: I followed the Force and never took sides.
  • Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated: Both Tholme and the Younglings under K'Kruhk's care have heard false reports that Zao died in the Clone Wars and are pleasantly surprised to see him alive.
  • Walking the Earth: He describes himself as a leaf in the wind, being guided wherever he needs to be by the Force.
  • What Could Have Been: He was originally going to die in his first appearance, but Duursema was requested to let him live.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: His fate is left unknown after he goes off to look for Sidirri when she runs away. Neither Zao nor Sidirri is seen again. Word of God is that Sidirri becomes a Dark Jedi (meaning she might have turned on Zao if he found her) but K'Kruhk senses that Zao is still alive, wandering the Galaxy.

Knol Ven'nari

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/knolvennari.jpg

Species: Bothan

A Jedi known as "the fire eater" for her mastery over fire. Goes on a mission with Obi-Wan at the outset of the Clone Wars. It proves to be her last.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Dies using her powers to hold back an explosion that would have otherwise killed or badly wounded her allies.
  • Playing with Fire: Noted for her ability to manipulate fire, hence her Red Baron title.

    Leska 

Leska

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leskajpg.jpg

Species: Human

A Master during the Battle of Jabiim.
  • The Chains of Commanding: She's thrust into a leadership position after several senior Jedi die and is hesitant to risk the lives of the Young Padawans under her command.
  • General Failure: Played with. While the Republic forces take heavy casualties under her leadership and she dies in a pretty stupid way, this is implied to be the result of inexperience rather than incompetence.
  • The World Is Just Awesome: During the middle of a battle, after weeks of non-stop rain, she pauses for a second, struck by the sun creeping through the clouds. Unfortunately, the droids don't care about this and take advantage of her distraction to shoot her.

    Nico Diath 

Nico Diath

    Ronhar Kim 

Ronhar Kim

Species: Human

The son of a former Naboo Senator, and a Jedi acquainted with Palpatine.

    Beyghor Sahdett 

Beyghor Sahdett

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/beyghorevilcloseup.jpg

Species: Verpine

  • Face–Heel Turn: He becomes Palpatine's servant to save his own life.
  • I Fight for the Strongest Side!: Sadhett willingly joins Palpatine after witnessing just how powerful of a Force user he is.
  • Insectoid Aliens: Sahdett is a Verpine, meaning he's a bipedal insectoid with stick-like limbs, wings, antennae, mandibles, and compound eyes.
  • Master Swordsman: Sahdett survives Order 66 purely because of his skill with a lightsaber. Dass Jennir and Kai Hudorra, who are both skilled duelists themselves, have never met Sahdett but know of his reputation as a fighter and comment that neither of them would stand a chance against Sahdett in a solo fight.
  • Off with His Head!: Sadhett decapitates a Clone trooper during his first Dark Times appearance. Later, he loses his own head to Darth Vader due to Vader's anger over Palpatine recruiting Sahdett behind his back.
  • One-Man Army: He single-handedly kills a dozen or so Imperial soldiers in moments on at least two occasions. Sahdett is also able to hold his own pretty well against two other Jedi (neither of them slouches in combat), three tough smugglers, and four casino security guards, killing or injuring several of them.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Every other known Verpine has black eyes, but Sahdett's eyes are red, and he is full of talk about going on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against The Empire. Then it turns out this is a lie, and he's already working for The Empire to kill rebels and Jedi. Interestingly, a flashback reveals that his eyes were red before he turned to the Dark Side. Further confusing things, the Verpine Jedi from Star Wars: Republic who is supposedly Sahdett has black eyes during Order 66.

Jedi Knights

    Sharad Hett 

Sharad Hett

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sharadhett_outlander5.png

Species: Human

Appears in: Republic

A Jedi Knight active before the Invasion of Naboo, having been the Padawan of Eeth Koth. A legendary hero, he grew tired of his fame, which in combination with a disaster that destroyed his homeworld and killed his family, he went into self-exile on Tatooine and became the warlord of a Tusken Raider tribe. During this time, he became the husband of K'Sheek and the couple had a son named A'Sharad Hett. When Ki-Adi-Mundi was sent to retrieve Sharad in search of help against the discovered reborn Sith threat, Sharad was killed during a conflict between the Hutts and his tribe thanks to Aurra Sing. Sharad's last wishes were for Ki-Adi-Mundi to take A'Sharad back to the Jedi to be trained, which they respected.


  • The Ace: He is treated as the greatest Jedi knight of his generation in the backstory. However, Hett resents this status because it conflicts with Jedi ideals, and he is only as zealous as he is because it distracts him from the feelings of depression caused by his separation from his family.
  • I Have Many Names: He gathered a collection of heroic titles during his time as a Jedi.
  • Proud Warrior Race Guy: As the leader of the Sand People in the Outlander story arc.
    Hett: I'm a war leader, my friend, not a king.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: He was just some One-Shot Character for a problem-of-the-week arc in the Star Wars main comicsnote . As it turns out, his son, A'Sharad, becomes very important, which by default makes Sharad himself rather important as well. As in, his son becomes the Big Bad of Legacy, long after Sharad has passed.
  • You Can't Go Home Again: His duty as a Jedi prevents him from visiting his homeworld. He considers leaving the Jedi Order so he can go back to his family only to discover that they were all killed by revolutionaries when he was away..

Homeworld: Ryloth

Appears in: Republic | Heart of Fire | Jedi | Legacynote 

"Farewell, A'Sharad...turn my death... into a victory."

The Padawan of Jedi Master J'Mikel. As a youngling, she met Aayla. During a stroll through the Coruscant Underworld in the Temple District with J'Mikel and Master Peerce, the two masters were killed in an ambush by Aurra Sing. Afterwards, Xiaan gained a new Master and was knighted, and fought in the Saleucami campaign towards the end of the Clone Wars, where she would lose her life while destroying the Separatist defenses.


  • Commonality Connection: With Aayla, as they're both female Twi'lek Jedi. She begins to look up to Aayla as a role model when they first meet.
  • Depending on the Artist: Either she has brown skin or blue skin.
  • Dying Moment of Awesome: Her starfighter is in critical state? She deliberately crashes it into the heart of Separatist defenses, which takes out their entire line and ultimately allows the Republic to take back Saleucami.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: She dies while taking out Separatist defenses at Saleucami. Though given that the Empire rises a couple of weeks later (meaning that the Separatists would've surrendered anyway), it ultimately was a Senseless Sacrifice.
  • Lost Lenore: Of A'Sharad Hett, otherwise known as the man who would become Darth Krayt a century after the Dark Times.
  • One-Steve Limit: Averted with Xiaan Amersu and Sian Jeisel. Both of them are named after Jan Duursema's daughter, Sian.
  • Taking You with Me: Her starfighter gets heavily damaged, but she uses her last moments to crash it into the heart of the Separatists' defenses, which turns the tide of the campaign in the Republic's favor.

  • Break the Cutie: Noriah's master dies during Order 66. She has to swim through ice-cold water to get into the nearest city. Then she's told to go into hiding and forget everything she was raised to know so she'll have a chance of surviving long enough for the hatred against the Jedi to end. She spends most of Into the Unknown on the verge of tears.
  • Put on a Bus: Master Hudorra gives her credits and tells her to blend in with the crowd, telling her to live her own life without the Jedi way so she can survive. She's never seen again afterwards.

    Tohno

  • Genius Bruiser: She's a trained architect and engineer, capable of both building and sabotaging things, and is also a good lightsaber combatant capable to using her lightsaber to great effect through telekinesis when her hands are busy.

    Tap-Nar-Pal

  • Hyper-Competent Sidekick: Kim is the master, but Palpatine quickly decides that Tap is the originator of the plan for testing the senate for force users to find Darth Sidious.

The Padawan Pack

A small, ad hoc group of Padawans whose masters were killed in battle before or during the Jabiim Campaign. They serve as the main characters of the Battle of Jabiim Arc.

    In General 

  • Anyone Can Die: Of the nine Padawans that make up the Pack, eight die during the Battle of Jabiim.
  • Characters Dropping Like Flies: The Pack is wiped out save for Anakin in the final part of the Battle of Jabiim arc.
  • Death of a Child: Part of General Leska's reasoning for forming the Pack was averting this, as she refused to "send children to their deaths." Tragically, all of them save Anakin wind up dead by the battle's end anyway.
  • Due to the Dead: Anakin commemorates them at the New Holstice Jedi memorial.
  • Dwindling Party: Their numbers slowly fall over the course of the arc's final days:
    • Tae Diath is the first to fall, dying on Day 40 of the Battle of Jabiim; courtesy of his Psychic Link to fellow Padawan Elora Sund, she also dies.
    • Windo "Warble" Nend dies on the 41st day, crushed under the wheels of a Hailfire Droid after being stunned by an explosion (though he arms a pair of grenades and takes it with him).
    • Zule Xiss follows suit on the very same day, stepping perilously close to the Dark Side before coming to her senses - moments before being crushed under a falling Republic walker.
    • Mak Lotor and Kass Tod die together in one another's arms on Day 42 at the hands of a Hailfire Droid's missiles, though they manage to permanently cripple Arc Villain Alto Stratus before going down.
    • Vaabesh's containment suit is breached on Day 43; as oxygen is poisonous to Gand physiology, he is indicated to quietly die offscreen.
    • Aubrie Wyn is shot through the chest by Stratus with a hidden pistol minutes after Vaabesh is fatally exposed, though she manages to plunge her lightsabers into his chest as she falls.
  • Psychic Link: The Padawans Tae Diath and Elora Sund share a psychic bond, which helps the former keep his telepathic abilities in check in the stressful conditions of Jabiim. Unfortunately, this also means that Elora suffers severe psychic backlash on Tae's death, which proves sufficient to kill her as well.
  • Quantity vs. Quality: The basic concept behind the Padawan Pack; it was hoped that a large group of Padawans would roughly equal the power of the rarer Knights and Masters when working together.
  • Sole Survivor: Anakin survives the Battle of Jabiim. The rest of the Pack... not so much.
  • Taking You with Me:
    • After being wounded by a Hailfire Droid and seeing it rolling toward him, Warble arms a pair of grenades just before he's crushed under its wheels. The resultant detonation destroys the droid as well.
    • Aubrie impales Alto Stratus through the chest with her lightsabers after he fatally shoots her, though it's unclear if this was intentional or just how her body fell.
  • War Is Hell: Pretty much the entire reason they exist is to show the reader the effects of war on people as the Battle of Jabiim grinds on, and to show the sheer, bloody pointlessness of the whole fight.

Padawan Aubrie Wyn

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aubrie_wyn_republic_tv_tropes.jpg

Species: Human

"I wasn't supposed to die here... I was supposed to train with Master Windu, on Coruscant... My Master said I was destined for the Jedi Council."

One of the best healers in the Jedi Order, she was the Padawan of Jedi Master Sirrus. After losing her master early on in the Battle of Jabiim, she joined the Padawan Pack for the rest of the campaign.

"Warble, if you talk the entire trip, I swear I'm going to use my rusty fingers to rip out your tusks."

The Padawan of Jedi Master Glaive. Due to her headstrong and abrasive attitude, she switched between many other masters before becoming the Padawan of the like-minded Master Glaive. She and her master went on a mission with Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Alpha to investigate the Naboo moon of Ohma-D'un to investigate suspicious activity. When her master was killed early on in the Battle of Jabiim, she became a part of the Padawan Pack, a group of other Padawans in the campaign that had lost their masters.

Species: Human

"I'm not a Jedi. I want to be a Sith. I've only begun to discover my power."

A youngling in the Soaring Hawkbat Clan. Shortly after the Battle of Coruscant, she & her clan as well as Masters K'Kruhk and Jeisel were awaiting transport at the Bogden 3 Jedi Temple to return to Coruscant, but Order 66 forced the group into hiding after fighting clones. However, after the group lost their hideout and was attacked by criminals, despite setting up a new hideout in the Hidden Jedi Temple on Arkinnea, Sidirri ran away and Zao left to pursue her.

Years later, on Dargulli, a mysterious Dark Jedi would meet Darth Vader and request to be his apprentice, but was swiftly rejected and killed.

And then she runs away.

  • Facial Markings: Like her cousin, although hers are in her forehead instead.

    Tinté Vos 

Tinté Vos

Species: Kiffar

Quinlan Vos' great-aunt and Shey of Kiffu and Kiffex, who opposed his joining of the Jedi Order, having wanted him to stay with the Kiffu Gardians instead. She turns out to not be the benevolent or dutiful woman she appears to be.
  • Cain and Abel: The Cain to her brother Kurlin's Abel, who was much nicer and more benevolent than she ever was, and who she poisoned after he allowed Tholme to take Quinlan to Coruscant to put Quinlan out of her reach.
  • The Corrupter: Is this to Quinlan with her having sacrificed Quinlan's parents to Anzatis and her having tricked him into reliving their horrible deaths by giving him their badge having deeply traumatized Quinlan, which would be largely responsible for his vulnerability to the Dark Side of the Force. Quinlan would also truly fall to the Dark Side during the Clone Wars as a result of him discovering the truth, and furiously killing her upon witnessing her absolute lack of remorse over her crimes.
  • Evil Aunt: Evil Great-Aunt in her case. She turns out to be responsible for the horrible deaths of Quinlan's parents at the hands of the Anzatis, and gave Quinlan his parents' badge knowing that it would cause him to relive his parents' death and traumatize him, hoping to bring him to the dark side and mold him as her desired heir. This makes her responsible for most of Quinlan's issues and long run in with the Dark Side.
  • Evil Old Folks: Is an elderly Kiffar woman, and is a very nationalistic, cruel and ruthless piece of work who did not hesitate to sacrifice or murder her own family and has no remorse over it.
  • Fantastic Racism: She loathes the Jedi, having desperately tried to prevent Quinlan from becoming one, and is a very nationalistic individual who despises the Republic for being a cultural melting pot.
  • Facial Markings: Like all Kiffu Guardians and members of her family she has these.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: She only appears directly in a few issues but her being responsible for Quinlan's parents' deaths and his trauma would have a huge impact on Quinlan's life.
