Aayla Secura / Legends Aayla Secura , born Aaylas ' ecura , was a female Rutian Twi ' lek Jedi Master in the later days of the Republic , who served with distinction as a General during the Clone Wars . She served as a Padawan under the tutelage of Quinlan Vos , and later , Vos ' own master Tholme . Both Secura and Vos survived a brush with the dark side early in their Jedi training , though she later proved herself worthy of knighthood . After Secura was promoted to the level of Jedi Knight , the Clone Wars broke out , and she was one of many Jedi to participate in the First Battle of Geonosis . She served in various campaigns , surviving such infamous battles as those on Hypori and Kamino . Indeed , such were her achievements that Secura was promoted to the level of Jedi Master near the beginning of the conflict . As a Jedi Master , Aayla Secura led the Republic war efforts at Quell and was instrumental in the defense of Kamino and later Maridun . However , despite her undoubted prowess , Secura met her end during the instigation of Order 66 on Felucia . Master Secura was remembered for generations by the people of the worlds she had helped during her life , and stories of her were known to have become part of the culture of many such people . Biography . Early life . In 46 BBY , two - year - old Aayla Secura was discovered on Ryloth to be strong in the Force during a mission undertaken by the young Quinlan Vos , the Kiffar Padawan of Jedi Master Tholme . Though she was Lon Secura ' s niece , the very young Secura was yet kept with the Twi ' lek slaves of the local Hutt crime lord , to help ensure her safety from any possible threat . Notwithstanding , during Tholme and Vos ' s visit , the wampa guard of the Hutt went on a rampage , and the little Secura found herself in immediate peril . Fortunately , she emanated her need through the Force and was sensed and saved by Quinlan Vos . A strong connection and Force bond formed almost instantly between him and Secura . Vos persuaded master Tholme to test Secura for Jedi training on Coruscant , where she passed the tests . When Aayla was about ten years old , Quinlan Vos took her as his Padawan . Secura was a skilled swordswoman and studied Ataru and Shien / Djem So . She also studied the Jar ' Kai form , using a green and a blue lightsaber . She would also occasionally use a violet lightsaber . She had a good relationship with a young Twi ' lek Padawan named Xiaan Amersu , to whom Secura gave a Heart of Fire as a gift . She also had a very close relationship with Jedi Kit Fisto , one which pushed the limits of the Jedi Code at times . Secura once learned a very valuable lesson when her dear pet T ' da died . Her master comforted her by relating how her beloved was now part of the Force , and would also live on in her heart . Ironically enough , she buried T ' da on Felucia — a planet she returned to just before her own life abruptly ended . Padawan Secura and her Master , Quinlan Vos , undertook many successive missions together . They rescued a little princess from the Skyboat pirates of Xoman Free , faced the Terbeast s of Ogden Minor , and solved the Mystery of the Lodi on Solibus IV . Also , in 30 BBY , an 18 - year - old Secura tells Jedi High Council members ( during their recounting of the Stark Hyperspace War ) that she and Vos worked undercover on Tatooine in 32 BBY when Qui - Gon Jinn was temporarily stranded there . But the following year , when Vos and Secura were assigned on a mission to Ryloth to investigate the sources of glitteryll , all went wrong . The two were captured and drugged . Secura and her master suffered heavy amnesia . She was taken by her uncle Pol Secura , who had to feed her more glitteryll every day because her spirit kept reasserting itself . She forgot that she was a Jedi ; she forgot she had a master and that she harbored Force powers . One day a strange man came to Pol Secura ' s quarters , looking for his " Padawan " Aayla Secura . He showed Secura her lightsaber , but she still couldn ' t remember anything . After a while , when the man discovered that Pol Secura was behind the drugging , he came back for him . But when Secura tried to rescue her uncle , Quinlan Vos accidentally sliced him with his lightsaber , killing him . Enraged , Secura fled , vowing vengeance . Brush with the dark side . Desiring revenge on the man who killed her uncle , Secura hid herself on a pirate ship en route to Kiffex . On that planet she discovered and released Dark Jedi Volfe Karkko from his stasis field . She gave in to the dark side of the Force and was willing to help the Anzati Dark Jedi . He gave her command of his Anzati minions and let her hunt down the Jedi on Kiffex . Karkko needed them alive to regain his strength ; he needed to suck their " Jedi - soup . " But first he needed to feed himself and his Anzati . Secura took the Anzati and stormed a local stronghold . There she faced off against Quinlan Vos , Tholme , and Master Zao and got away with their captured people . Vos followed her and reached the prison of Karkko . Again she fought against her former master , but then she at last realized her true identity . At that moment Karkko used Force lightning to knock her out . When she woke up , she found Karkko dead . Aayla Secura was soon thereafter assigned to Jedi Master Tholme , Vos ' former master , and began the process at the Jedi Temple that would aid in a full recovery of her memory ( it was towards the end of that recovery that the Jedi Council regaled Secura with their nostalgic recounting of the events of the Stark Hyperspace conflict ) . Vos , on the other hand , pictured himself as " a leaf blown forth by the wind , " and he left Kiffex , going where the Force told him to go . Return to Coruscant . After Secura returned to Coruscant , she sought the counsel of Jedi Grand Master Yoda . He told her that he was relieved when she had been found . She herself feared she was still lost after what had happened to her . Master Tholme had briefed Yoda on all that had happened to Aayla , and Yoda counseled her that she should not judge herself harshly . She replied that something was missing from her life now . Yoda offered his advice , telling her she was a Jedi and to be patient . Finally , he wished for her to understand that the Force leads them towards not what they always want , but what they need . Still somewhat confused , Yoda gave her one last piece of advice — to believe the Force was with her and would help her . Ascension to Knighthood . Having returned to the Jedi capital , Secura , as happened with Vos , was re - trained in the Jedi Temple . Master Plo Koon agreed to use his telepathy to guide Secura as she arranged and organized in her mind her newly - recovered memories . In learning again of the Stark Hyperspace War , she met conflict veteran Jace Dallin . Later that year , Secura went undercover , infiltrating the Twi ' lek clan Fenn . She discovered that the clan ' s leader , Ro Fenn , was planning an attack on the Secura clan ' s male heir , the child Nat Secura . She informed Tholme and quickly joined her master against this new threat . Facing off against two Nikto Morgukai , Tholme was defeated but still managed to slip on their ship . Unfortunately , he was discovered and imprisoned . Secura followed Vilmarh Grahrk , who was in league with the Nikto , to his ship " Inferno " , but the Devaronian escaped . The Force led Secura to a junkyard on Ord Mantell . There she found her former master , Vos , and helped him fight against bounty hunters . She explained all that had happened to Quinlan , and the two decided to rescue Nat Secura and Master Tholme . They succeeded in tracking down Grahrk and persuaded him to tell them where the two Morgukai went . They quickly set course for Kintan , the home planet of the Nikto , and there faced off against the two Morgukai , Bok and his father , Tsyr . The Nikto escaped Ord Mantell and went to the fortress of the Twi ' lek Kh ' aris Fenn , who , all the while , had been behind the clan ' s current strife and misery , and waited for the Jedi to arrive . The two Jedi broke into the fortress and there confronted the Nikto again : Secura was to rescue Nat Secura and Tholme , Vos would fight the Nikto . Secura reached the dungeon , defeated the torture droid AX / RX , freed Tholme and Nat , and went to Vos ' s aid . Vos had already beheaded Tsyr , but he had been knocked to the ground by Bok . Secura saved Vos ' s life by engaging Bok before he could deliver the final blow . She wounded the Nikto , taking his right hand , but did not kill him . Bok let himself fall hundreds of meters in order to keep his honor . The three Jedi and Nat survived . They returned the young Twi ' lek boy to his father , but , unfortunately , Fenn escaped from Ryloth to Count Dooku ' s hidden stronghold . Ro Fenn , now forced to face Twi ' lek justice , was sent into a land of no return — the Bright Lands , the side of Ryloth that was baked in eternal sunlight . Back on Coruscant , Secura and Vos were both promoted by the Jedi High Council . Secura was granted the rank of Jedi Knight , and Vos , that of a Jedi Master . Clone Wars ( 22 BBY – 19 BBY ) . Battle of Geonosis . Aayla Secura was in the Jedi Temple at the time of the First Battle of Geonosis and thus was a member of the 212 Jedi task force sent to Geonosis to rescue two Jedi and the Senator Padmé Amidala held captive . Igniting her lightsaber and charging into battle , Secura was one of the few survivors of the battle between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Jedi that ensued in the Petranaki arena . At one point , she dispatched a super battle droid with a kick to the face as fellow Jedi Knight Sarrissa Jeng dealt with a Geonosian . Forced into the circle of survivors at gunpoint , Secura and the others evacuated on newly - arrived gunships and then led her own squad of clone troopers into battle . Thus was sparked the conflict known as the Clone Wars . Mission to Corellia . Like almost every other fully trained Jedi in the Order , Secura became a Jedi General . Eight standard days after the Battle of Geonosis , she was sent on a mission to intercept Techno Union scientist Ratri Tane , who had fled to Corellia with the files and prototype of new droid circuitry , along with fellow Caamasi Jedi Ylenic It ' kla . Infiltrating the Wheel . Less than a standard month later , Secura infiltrated the Wheel , posing as a down - on - her - luck mechanic named Jayzaa , in order to locate Quinlan Vos , who hadn ' t reported from his undercover mission since the Battle of Geonosis . Together , they secured a copy of the plans of the impending Confederacy attack on Kamino . With the help of Khaleen Hentz and Tookarti they kept crime boss Zenex from stealing back the plans . After killing Zenex and his henchmen , Vos told Secura that he was going to set up spy networks for the republic . Using the intelligence they had collected , the Galactic Republic was able to fend off the attack on the rainy planet . In the Battle of Kamino , Secura defended the cloning facilities in her Jedi starfighter . Battle of Kamino . She would remain on the planet , alongside Master Kit Fisto , and save the facilities once again , this time from sabotage from within — a Kaminoan nano - virus meant to wipe out the clone troopers . During the last minutes of the battle against super battle droids ( under the control of a double - crossing Kaminoan ) , Secura fell into the waters of Kamino and nearly drowned before being saved by Fisto . As an amphibian , the Nautolan was able to absorb oxygen from the water and breathe it into Secura to help her breathe . When they were up on the surface again , they killed the double - crossing Kaminoan using the virus by tricking her into injecting it into herself . When Fisto saved Secura , it marked a significant point in the lives of both Jedi . The event started a relationship between the two that pushed the limits of the Jedi Code . The two Jedi ' s relationship was similar to that of Obi - Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi . Battle of Hypori . Later into the war , Secura ascended to the rank of Jedi Master . Four months after Geonosis , the Twi ' lek Jedi , along with fellow Jedi Masters Daakman Barrek , Ki - Adi - Mundi , Shaak Ti , K ' Kruhk participated in the Battle of Hypori , where she was one of the Jedi who survived their first encounter with General Grievous . Grievous gripped Secura and the dead Tarr Seirr with his feet and sent both flying into the ceiling . She suffered grave wounds in the attack , and only survived due to the intervention of a squad of ARC troopers . It was after this mission that she was assigned to the 327th Star Corps , and later forged a close relationship with Commander Bly . Battle of Quell . After capturing an important Separatist tactical droid , Secura and Commander Bly were dispatched to lead an assault over the planet Quell . As her ships were assaulted by B2 Rocket droids , Jedi Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano , arrived and helped Bly and Secura evacuate the decimated Republic Cruiser . The Jedi and the Clones destroyed most of the droids on her ship , but were ambushed by a large number of Super Battle droids and were forced to flee toward Skywalker ' s ship . But then , an explosion started behind the pursuing droids . Skywalker noticed this early and Force pushed Secura , Tano , and some more clones into the ship ' s doorway and tried to use the Force to stop the explosion , but it didn ' t work and seriously injured him , but fortunately , Tano and Secura rescued him . Before the Jedi could dock aboard the " Resolute " to give Skywalker medical attention , fire from droid fighters knocked out one of the pilots , accidentally activating the hyperdrive . Secura told Admiral Wullf Yularen to take the " Resolute " up above , before they took the cruiser with them . Battle of Maridun . After a treacherous trip through hyperspace , the Jedi and the few clones in their company crash landed on the planet Maridun . After they landed , Secura and Tano took Bly and the remaining troopers ( except for Rex , who guarded Anakin during the night ) to look for help . They found a drawing of a tree , so they looked for it , but some giant pods fell down , . Secura noticed that other pods had been dragged away by . Secura guessed that whatever or whoever had dragged away the pods were sentient creatures and thought they might be able to help Anakin . The group followed the tracks and were attacked by a pair of mastiff phalones and only Bly , Tano and Secura came out alive . The next morning , they found a village of Lurmen who had settled on the planet , far away from the war . The village elder , Tee Watt Kaa refused to aid them , fearing that destruction would break the peace they already had . However , at Tano ' s request , he did give them medical supplies and had his son , Wag Too help deliver them . But he requested that only one Jedi take the supplies and that Bly should follow . The Jedi agreed to this , Tano and Bly went to bring back Anakin , and the injured Jedi was healed . Later , an army of droids , led by General Lok Durd , landed on Maridun and upon meeting Tee Watt Kaa , claimed the planet for the Separatists . The Jedi and the clones decided to leave the village , or else the droids would have killed the Lurmen . They left , but decided to steal a Separatist ship to get off of Maridun . They were followed by a spy droid , but they destroyed it before it could send news of their plans to the Separatists . The team climbed a tree and saw a Separatist fort and Durd testing a new weapon that destroyed life forms , but not machines . After the successful test , the Separatist army headed for the Lurmen village . The Jedi and the clones mounted a raid on the fort that night and stole a ship and two shield generators . They then headed back to the village . They offered their help , which Tee Watt Kaa turned down , but they then barricaded the village anyway . The Separatists reached the village and tried using their new weapon , but the shield generators stopped the effects of it . They then sent the droids out . Secura and the others obliterated the first wave , but the second group got past them and destroyed the shield generators . Secura and Tano took care of them while Skywalker destroyed the new weapon . After the battle , Wag Too thanked the Jedi for saving the village , and Kaa admitted that the Lurmen owe the Jedi their lives . Finally , three Jedi cruisers appeared and picked up Secura , Tano , Skywalker , Rex , and Bly . Mission to Alzoc III . Later Secura went with Jedi Master Luminara Unduli and Clone Commanders Bly and CC - 1004 , nicknamed " Gree , " to investigate the planet Alzoc III , where Separatist activity had been reported by the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure . The Republic squad took several All Terrain Tactical Enforcers and headed for the coordinates of the location provided by Jabba . Along the way , the walkers were forced to scale a vertical cliff , and when a walker ' s path became blocked by a bulk of ice , Bly immediately ordered his men to blast it . Secura , however , ordered to hold , stating that the blast could lead to the collapse of the entire cliff , and proceeded to remove the obstacle in a more delicate way . Upon arriving at their destination , both the Jedi and the clone troopers witnessed a crash site of a large capital ship and were stunned by the view of huge masses of ice and numerous starship parts floating freely in the air . Deciding to investigate the unusual phenomena , the clone troopers used their jetpacks to reach what remained of the ship ' s hangar , while the Jedi followed them by using the Force to navigate through debris . Rendezvousing at the hangar , the group was attacked by a Vulture droid , and it became apparent that the crash site attracted Separatist interest as well . Unduli and Secura quickly defeated the droid and ordered the clones to scout ahead and find the ship ' s data recorder , while they themselves engaged the battle droids and followed by an alternate route . After reaching the remains of the ship ' s bridge , Gree began to slice the vessel ' s data recorder , while the Jedi and the clone troopers protected him from the attacking droids . After successfully neutralizing the battle droids , Gree was able to access the record of the ship ' s final moments . It became apparent that an individual had used a Telgorn dropship to board a " Munificent " - class star frigate carrying two classified weapons , stole one of them , and then departed shortly before the frigate was hit by an explosion . The vessel had then crashed on the planet , where the weapon created a gravity anomaly . Soon , it was also revealed that the Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress had already visited the crash site and set the remains of the frigate to self - destruct . Unduli and Secura ordered the clone troopers to safety and then briefly dueled Ventress . The two Jedi trapped the Dark Jedi under the bulk of ice before leaving the crash site and reporting to the Jedi High Council . Distracting the Zillo Beast . When the Zillo Beast broke out of its captivity on Coruscant , it stormed its way to the Senate building and captured the escape craft Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was using to usher himself , Anakin Skywalker , and Padmé Amidala to safety . Secura teamed with Yoda to leap onto the beast ' s back , attempting to distract it and allow the occupants of the escape craft enough time to scurry away from the beast ' s clutches . They were successful in their attempt , and followed the group to safety , shielding them from the cloud of gas from the toxin - bombs used to kill the Zillo beast . Hunting Attuma Duum . Around 21 BBY , Secura was assigned an escort of elite Clone troopers to arrest the mercenary Attuma Duum on the moon Cavamina Minor . She was betrayed by Duum ' s operatives , and in the ensuing struggle in the cantina , all her clones were killed . She fled , and her Delta - 7B was shot down . She broadcast a distress signal on channel Delta - 622 - Echo . She was pursued on foot by Sabat , Duum ' s chief of security . The Force - sensitive Shon - Ju intervened to rescue her , engaging Sabat and his security droid . Sabat activated his jetpack , leaving Shon - Ju to assist a wounded Secura , who passed out from her wounds . Secura later woke up alone in Shon - Ju ' s castle . She explored the castle and found Shon - Ju watching over his students . The man told her his story , how he had trained as a Jedi but was rejected . Secura was ready to leave to return to her mission , but Shon - Ju told her to wait , because he wanted Duum shut down as well and agreed to accompany her . The next morning , they stole two abandoned bombers to infiltrate Attuma Duum ' s headquarters . Once aboard , Shon - Ju rashly took her lightsaber to trip the alarms . Secura used her Force powers to subude the guards , but Sabat took Shon - Ju hostage and force her to surrender . Once placed in suspension , Duum visited them but was called off to other matters . He had lured two fleets , one of the Republic Navy and the other one from the Confederate Navy . When Sabat was distracted , Shon - Ju told her he wanted to kill Duum to humiliate the Jedi , who had failed to capture the mercenary . Shon - Ju then used own Force powers to escape his bonds and attack Sabat , throwing the latter into a turbine and killing him . Shon - Ju left Secura in her bonds for the moment , telling her that her destiny was in her hands , but she wouldn ' t stop him from finishing what he had come for . Shon - Ju then went to confront Duum , who revealed his cyborg body . As flames from the damaged base spread near her , Secura accessed the Force to escape . She arrived in time to intervene , preventing Shon - Ju from finishing a damaged Duum . Shon - Ju stated attacking her instead , allowing Duum to escape . As the two traded blows , Secura had a flashback to what Yoda had once told her . Shon - Ju picked her up by her lekku , sayihng he would end it for her quickly , but she just laughed in response , saying being a Jedi was accepting one ' s place . She then used the Force to grab her lightsaber and cut off Shon - Ju ' s hands . Shon - Ju said the Jedi kept " taking " from him , and ran off in tears into the flames . With the base in its death throes , Secura stole another bomber to return to Coruscant . There she met Grand Master Yoda to discuss the results of her mission . Yoda consoled her , telling her Duum ' s operaiton was destroyed , and that he sensed a changein her . She replied that she found something inside of her which had been missing . She had doubts though , whether the change was for the better , as Duum could still be alive . Unbeknownst to her , both Duum and Shon - Ju had indeed survived , the latter accepting a set of prosthetics . Mission to Devaron . Later in the war , Secura investigated Separatist raids on Republic supply lines along the Corellian Trade Spine as part of a Jedi task force of masters Tholme , T ' ra Saa , Kit Fisto , and An ' ya Kuro . When the headquarters of the raiders were pinpointed to the planet Devaron , Secura went undercover as Tuulaa Doneeta , the spoiled daughter of a Twi ' lek shipping baron . This way , she managed to infiltrate Senator Vien ' sai ' Malloc ' s apartments as her guest , with Masters Tholme ( " Miles Croft " ) , and Kuro ( " Saba " ) as her servants . The Senator was the one who backed the raiders , hoping to play both sides in the war . She had hired bounty hunter Aurra Sing , an ex - Jedi , to make sure nobody learned of her plans . The Jedi on Devaron were Sing ' s next targets , and after caving in her former Master and Tholme , she ambushed Secura . The Twi ' lek survived and attacked Aurra . The two fought , and Secura was able to win by hitting the bounty hunter where it hurt : her feelings of abandonment . Aurra reacted by unleashing her rage , but thus became disoriented , and Secura cut off the antenna implant — installed by the hunter ' s Anzati mentors — that allowed Sing to feed off the fear of her prey . As Sing was enveloped in anger , Secura was at peace , and turned the former Jedi over to local authorities . She eventually ended up on the penal colony of Oovo IV . Then , Secura rescued Tholme and Kuro and provided intelligence she had gathered about the raider headquarters to Fisto and Saa and the raiders were dissolved in a battle between them and Republic forces . Betrayal on Honoghr . Eighteen months after the Battle of Geonosis , Tholme told Secura that Quinlan Vos had not really betrayed the Jedi Order , but was a double agent infiltrating the Separatists to spy on Dooku , although he feared that Vos had fallen to the dark side . She was then sent to the head of a squad of clones and seconded by the Clone Commander Bly on Honoghr to recover the Scientific Instrument Package ( SIP ) containing all data on a deadly gas developed by the Separatists , and fell into the hands of Noghri warriors . She had to battle against the fierce natives when unexpected help came : her former master Quinlan Vos . But when they had recovered the SIP , Quinlan turned against Aayla to bring her to Dooku . Aayla was again forced to fight Vos , but was defeated . Bly intervened to save her life ; shooting Vos and causing him to flee . Mission to Endor . During the war , Master Secura and Commander Bly investigated a deserted Separatist outpost in the Endor system . After discovering the base to be empty , ( and finding remains of countless clone troopers and battle droids ) Secura went out scouting , during which she was spied upon by a lone battle droid . When it attempted to shoot her , she severed its appendages with her lightsaber . While interrogating the droid , Secura was caught unaware by the native Ewok people and was shot with a tranquilizer dart . Secura awoke within an Ewok treehouse , and using the battle droid as a translator , learnt that the natives believed her to be a forest spirit . As a spirit , it was her duty to vanquish the Beast in the Mouth of the Mountain . Secura , taking the droid along , complied . While climbing to the Beast ' s lair , Secura argued with the droid over her sympathy for the clones . Reaching the cave , the Jedi Master tripped on a pile of bones , alerting the Beast to her presence . The Beast quickly impaled the battle droid with its claw , leaving Secura free to use the Force on collapsing parts of the ceiling , forcing them down upon the monster . Having fulfilled her duty as the Ewok ' s spirit , Secura returned to her Republic gunship , where Bly was waiting . Dismissing her commander ' s worries , the pair , along with their squadron , headed to Felucia . The Ewoks would remember her brave deeds by immortalizing her in a painting depicting her defeat of the Beast . Siege of Saleucami . Few months later , she accompanied Tholme to the planet Anzat in order to investigate the renegade Jedi Sora Bulq , Dooku ' s right hand . She found Bulq ' s ship , fought against a Morgukai warrior and stole the logbooks . The logbooks revealed separatist activity on Saleucami . Then , the Council sent her to Trigalis to lead troops . There , she met Obi - Wan Kenobi , obsessed with stalking of Asajj Ventress , and offered him her Jedi Starfighter . She then received a transmission from Tholme , telling her that the Separatists had created an army of Bok ' s clones on Saleucami , the Morgukai warrior she had defeated years ago , specially trained by Anzati to kill Jedi . The Republic therefore sent an army to lay siege to Saleucami , supported by many Jedi including Quinlan Vos , apparently repentant but still playing a double game . They fought side by side against Morgukai clones , destroyed the planetary shield that prevented the republican forces to bombard the planet , and destroyed the cloning facilities . Secura then had to face Bok again and killed him , while Vos faced Sora Bulq in a duel , sliding more towards the dark side of the Force . Secura and Tholme went into meditation and snatched Quinlan from the darkness , allowing him to defeat his opponent . Death . Following the siege of Saleucami , Secura and her troops were sent to Felucia to help Jedi Knight Barriss Offee uncover a plot to poison Felucia ' s water supply . There , Secura had also gained the respect of the 501st Legion in the time they served with her when she saved them from a number of deadly acklays and helped destroy an auto - turret system . After freeing Offee and her new Padawan Zonder , Secura and the Padawans Ekria and Drake Lo ' gaan were able to discover that Presidente Shu Mai of the Commerce Guild had arranged the poisoning of Felucia ' s water supply . While Offee took a squad to Har Gau , Secura and Commander Bly went to Niango . While preparing to engage an oncoming onslaught of droids , Secura glanced to the skies as a Felucian bird flew overhead . Standing behind her friend and commanding officer , the ever - loyal Commander Bly received word from the Supreme Chancellor ordering him to carry out Order 66 , which denounced Secura and her fellow Jedi as traitors to the Republic . Distracted by the bird , the Twi ' lek could not even ignite her lightsaber before she was struck by blasterfire from behind ; as she crumpled to the ground beneath a large fungal growth , her troops continued to fire at her body repeatedly . Soon after , the AT - TE walker that was closest to her fired at Barriss Offee , making her the next victim of the Great Jedi Purge . Immediately after the Twi ' lek ' s death , Secura ' s friend Jedi Master Darrus Jeht felt her demise through the Force and experienced a vision of her being killed by the clone troopers . Legacy . When the Galactic Empire emerged , compiled by Sate Pestage stated that Aayla Secura and Barriss Offee were both executed because they were plotting to poison Felucia ' s water supply , although it was really the Separatists . When the purge of the Jedi Order was enacted , a member of the 501st reflected on his time on Felucia with Secura and , though he believed the Jedi to be traitors to the Republic , hoped that she had been granted a quick death as he believed that " she had earned that much " . However , despite the attempts of the Empire , Aayla Secura was remembered by the peoples of the worlds she aided , in some cases merging with pre - existing goddess myths or historical figures . As late as 40 ABY , a professor by the name of Movac Arisster believed that he had seen a vision of Secura telling him to kill a Jedi , though this had in fact been a projection by the Sith Lady Lumiya . By that time , there were still fictitious accounts of her life being written . Personality and traits . Aayla Secura was an empathic and highly intelligent Jedi but was also impulsive and somewhat mischievous . Becoming very confident , though not arrogant , in her abilities , she was a good leader and a skilled tactician ; her quick thinking earned her the respect of many clone troopers during the Clone Wars . Secura was also strong willed as she was able to resist the pheromones of the Falleen , Zenex . Her given name , Aayla , was common for female Twi ' leks and it meant ' smoke ' or ' mist ' in Ryl . In the aftermath of the events on Kiffex , she felt something was missing inside of her . Master Yoda consoled her and told her to believe that the Force gave her strength . Events on Cavamina Minor years later forced a change inside of her , and she said she felt something had been found . Secura had a brief romantic relationship with Kit Fisto , but she was dedicated to the Jedi Order and decided the Order was more important than her relationship with Fisto , though they would still nurse feelings for each other . From childhood , Aayla formed an intimate Force bond with her savior , the stripling padawan Quinlan Vos , years before he turned to the dark side ; she once said that he had been like a father to her . Like her relationship with Fisto , however , she eventually learned to let go of her attachment to her master , and she later taught Ahsoka Tano , Skywalker ' s padawan , to do the same . She also had a close friendship with Commander Bly , but like most clones Bly obeyed Order 66 , betrayed her trust , and killed her . Secura ' s attire was practical , albeit somewhat revealing , and allowed her to both move freely and show her Jedi affiliations . She also wore ornate jewelry on her navel . When she retired from her duties to sleep , she usually wore an ornate red and gold floral robe , although she tended to leave its folds fully open , exposing her body in the process . Powers and abilities . Aayla Secura was trained as a Jedi Guardian , leading her to focus more on her combat skills , becoming an impressively skilled fighter . She mastered the fourth form of lightsaber combat , Ataru , and had some skill in Form V , as well as being a practitioner of Jar ' Kai . Secura ' s lightsaber skills allowed her to survive the battle of Geonosis , hold her own against General Grievous , ( albeit with help from several other Jedi ) and overpower the skilled bounty hunter Aurra Sing in a duel . She had also grown adept in unarmed fighting , especially while sparring with Commander Bly . She also survived an encounter with Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress on Alzoc III and several acklays when on Felucia . In addition to her combat skills , Secura was very skilled in stealth and infiltration which she learned from Quinlan Vos and Tholme . Secura also had some skill with Force cloak , which was a hard to learn ability that some masters couldn ' t complete . She was also known to use her beauty and Force powers to seduce people into giving information . She also used Force push and Force pull to great effect . Aayla Secura was also a skilled pilot . In combat she was known to use the nexu stance evasive roll . Behind the scenes . Aayla Secura was originally created for the Expanded Universe by artist Jan Duursema and writer John Ostrander . In early concept art for the character , she was a fish - like creature rather than a Twi ' lek . After seeing a piece of cover art of the final character , George Lucas decided to place her in . However , the character ' s appearances in the films are brief , and she sees most of her action in Expanded Universe material . Aayla Secura was portrayed by Amy Allen in and . She is voiced by Jennifer Hale in " " TV series in a slight French - type accent in the series . Director Dave Filoni wanted the character to have something slightly different for her voice , resembling a post World War II veteran dialogue .
