Belth Allusis was a Human male Jedi Master and a prominent member of the Jedi High Council active during the Great Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the resurgent Sith Empire . Since the beginning of the war in 3681 BBY , the Empire had scored many victories , and eventually established its dominance in the Outer Rim region of the galaxy . In 3671 BBY , the Sith turned their forces toward the Mid Rim and attempted to seize control of the planet Bothawui . However , a Republic fleet had been waiting for them above the planet , and the Sith attack was repelled . The Republic fleet was then pulled back from Bothawui , and only a small force led by Master Allusis remained behind to defend the planet against a possible Sith counterattack . The attack soon followed ; Imperial battlecruisers from all around the galaxy moved in to capture Bothawui . However , the planet was protected by a high - powered planetary shield , which prevented the Sith from using orbital bombardment and forced them to initiate a ground assault instead . Soon , a fifty - thousand - strong force of Sith landed on the planet and attacked the shield generators , which were protected only by seven dozen of the Jedi Order ' s Knights and four thousand Republic soldiers , all commanded by Allusis . Despite being greatly outnumbered , the Republic troops put up a valiant fight ; for each Republic soldier killed , the Empire paid with ten lives . During the battle , Allusis and his men developed unorthodox tactics , which — combined with the Imperial commanders ' decision to send all of their troops directly into the assault — resulted in so many Sith losses that the Empire was forced to call in reinforcements . Eventually , however , most of the Republic defenders were killed , and only a handful of Jedi and soldiers remained . The survivors gathered near Master Allusis and prepared for a final stand . At that moment , the Imperial Grand Moff Zellos offered to spare Allusis if he and his forces surrendered . Drawing from the Force , Allusis and his soldiers did not accept the offer and fought to the last man . Although all of the Republic forces perished , the Empire had taken too many casualties and was forced to retreat from Bothawui . The last stand of " The Heroes of Bothawui " — as Allusis and his men became known — restored hope across the Republic and served as a turning point in the war . The strategies developed by them helped the Republic to temporarily hold off the Sith advancement , until the Sith allied with the Mandalorians four years later . The Republic was eventually defeated and forced to sign the Treaty of Coruscant with the enemy . In the aftermath of its signing , the keeper of the Jedi Archives , Kel Dor Jedi Master Gnost - Dural , documented the Battle of Bothawui in a holorecord , as well as his personal journal . Grand Master Satele Shan later compiled key entries from that journal into the book titled " The Journal of Master Gnost - Dural " , adding her own recollections of Allusis . To honor Allusis ' s bravery , a Republic " Valor " - class cruiser was christened after him , the " Allusis " . After the Treaty of Coruscant , the Republic and the Sith Empire entered the period of Cold War . During that period , the Mandalorian Clan Varad , led by Mavrix Varad , rebelled against the Sith - allied Mandalore the Vindicated ' s rule and seized the " Allusis " , using it to terrorize vulnerable worlds in the Outer Rim Territories . This prompted both the Republic and the Empire to send boarding parties to capture the ship . Ultimately , Clan Varad was defeated and Mavrix Varad was slain . Personality and traits .
