    Luminara Unduli

    A green-skinned Mirialan, Luminara Unduli served the Jedi Order during the final years of the Galactic Republic, and trained the capable Padawan Barriss Offee. A no-nonsense Jedi Master, Luminara fought in Clone Wars battles such as Geonosis and Kashyyyk, and was thought to have perished during Order 66. In reality, she’d been taken into Imperial custody and executed, with holographic transmissions of her captivity used as bait to capture fugitive Jedi.

History

 The Blade Wing

The B-wing was developed by the quirky yet masterful engineer Quarrie, a Mon Calamari with no love of the Empire. He worked in solitary on Shantipole, experimenting with speed, weaponry, and design. Finally, the “Blade Wing” was complete, and the Ghost crew’s Hera became its first pilot. After a successful strike against the Empire, Senator Bail Organa found a manufacturer willing to develop the starfighter in secret.

B-wings in the Battle of Endor

Rebel engineers designed the B-wing with a single purpose – to destroy Imperial capital ships. To achieve that goal, they packed weaponry and flight systems normally reserved for much larger craft into the body of a starfighter. B-wings weren’t much good in dogfights – their pilots complained that they maneuvered like freighters – and were a struggle to maintain. But the B-wing’s potent combination of weapons made it a deadly assault starfighter and a worthy addition to the Alliance arsenal. B-wings proved their worth at the Battle of Endor, with the pilots of Blade Squadron using group tactics to target Imperial Star Destroyers.

  • After Padmé Amidala captured Nute Gunray on Rodia, Luminara Unduli and Ahsoka Tano transported the Separatist leader to Coruscant for trial. When Ahsoka threatened Gunray in a clumsy effort to get him to talk, Luminara upbraided the Padawan for her crude methods.

  • Asajj Ventress attacked the Jedi cruiser carrying the Jedi and Gunray, and maneuvered Luminara into a duel in the ship’s engine room – one the Jedi insisted on fighting without Ahsoka’s assistance. Ventress quickly tricked Luminara, scorching her with a blast of steam that temporarily blinded her in one eye.

  • Despite her injury, Luminara was confident that she could defeat Ventress, dismissing her fighting style as an amateurish copy of Count Dooku’s. But she soon found herself overwhelmed by the raw ferocity of Ventress’s attack – and was only saved by Ahsoka’s intervention.

  • During the second invasion of Geonosis, Luminara and her Padawan Barriss Offee joined Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka to plan the destruction of Poggle the Lesser’s massive weapons factory. While Anakin and Ahsoka’s relationship was frequently tempestuous, Barriss listened dutifully and respectfully to her master.

  • While Barriss and Ahsoka infiltrated the Geonosian droid factory, Luminara and Anakin created a diversion, battling Separatist super tanks on the surface. Despite their very different temperaments, the two Jedi made a capable team.

  • Forced to improvise, Barriss and Ahsoka blew up the foundry’s reactor, trapping themselves in the plant’s wreckage. Luminara accepted her Padawan’s sacrifice, but Anakin refused to assume that the apprentices were dead. After receiving a faint signal, Luminara and Anakin used the Force to clear the debris, saving their Padawans.

  • The Geonosis campaign succeeded, but Poggle the Lesser fled before he could be captured. Luminara and the clone trooper Buzz tracked the Geonosian leader to catacombs beneath the Progate Temple, where they were attacked and lost contact with their Republic allies.

  • Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi followed Luminara and discovered she’d been taken captive by Karina the Great, the secret Geonosian queen. Karina intended to infect Luminara with a worm that would take over her brain, giving the Geonosian queen an enslaved Jedi to use as a weapon. The Jedi foiled Karina’s plot, freeing Luminara.

  • To Luminara’s dismay, Barriss turned against the Order, arguing that the Jedi had become agents of evil. Luminara served the Republic at the Battle of Kashyyyk, where she was believed killed with the other Jedi when Supreme Chancellor Palpatine implemented Order 66.

  • Years after the Empire’s rise, the fugitive Jedi Kanan Jarrus was startled by an Imperial broadcast showing Luminara in Imperial custody. Thinking Luminara would make a better teacher for Ezra Bridger, Kanan plotted to free the Jedi Master from the prison known as the Spire.

  • Kanan and Ezra fought their way into the Spire and located Luminara’s cell. But the Jedi was long dead, executed by the Empire – which had used holographic footage and Luminara’s remains as a trap to lure fugitive Jedi to their doom.

    Asajj Ventress

    A former Jedi Padawan turned assassin, Asajj Ventress was trained in the ways of the dark side by Count Dooku. For many years, she yearned to be considered a true Sith, secretly acting as Dooku’s apprentice. During the time of the Clone Wars, Ventress fought for the Separatists, clashing with Jedi like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker with her twin red-bladed lightsabers. But after Dooku was ordered to dispose of Asajj and left her for dead, Ventress returned to her Nightsister clan to exact her revenge. In time, Ventress reinvented herself as a bounty hunter and reclaimed her identity, neither a Sith nor a Jedi.

    Nute Gunray

    Neimoidians are known for their business skills, but Nute Gunray, Viceroy of the Trade Federation, was more cutthroat than most. It was Gunray who conspired with the Sith Lord Darth Sidious to launch the blockade and subsequent invasion of Naboo. Once the planet was under siege, Gunray attempted to force Queen Amidala to sign a treaty that would legitimize the occupation. Amidala escaped, and returned to infiltrate her own palace and blast through Gunray's protectors. Arrested by Republic officials, Gunray was carted off to answer for his crimes, but evaded imprisonment and kept his post.

  • Anakin Skywalker

    Anakin Skywalker

    Discovered as a slave on Tatooine by Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker had the potential to become one of the most powerful Jedi ever. Some even believed he was the prophesied Chosen One who would bring balance to the Force. Always pushing the limits of his Jedi training, seeking to excel and live up to his reputation, Skywalker's passion often brought him into conflict with his mentor, Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. A hero of the Clone Wars, Anakin was caring and compassionate, but suffered from a deep fear of loss that would prove to be his downfall.

    Clone Commander Gree

    Clone Commander Gree, designation 1004, led the Elite Corps of clone troopers during the Clone Wars. He saw deployments on such heated battlefronts as Kashyyyk. Gree himself wore camouflaged armor to better blend into jungle surroundings. Though a faithful commander who carried out the Jedi's orders, Gree was ultimately loyal to the Republic. When Chancellor Palpatine enacted Order 66, Gree understood it was a worst-case scenario contingency -- the Jedi had betrayed the Republic, and were therefore dangerous enemies of the state.

    Barriss Offee

    In the time of the Republic, Barriss Offee served as the Padawan to Luminara Unduli, with a preference for studying ancient Jedi texts in the Temple over serving on the frontlines of war. But her mindset, while noble, led her down a dark path. Even before the Jedi fell, Barriss accused the Order of losing its way and was imprisoned for life for crimes against the Republic for her role in the bombing of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. With the dawn of the Empire, Barriss is freed for a new purpose: to serve the Inquisitorius.
