Oojoh Oojoh was a male Ho ' Din with green skin who lived in the period just after the Great Sith War of 3996 BBY . As a Force - sensitive , he was selected by the Jedi Order for training . Initially , he received this at the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine , before transferring to Taris along with four other trainees . There , he was apprenticed under the Feeorin Jedi Master Feln . He progressed through his training , constructing a lightsaber and bringing down the Leverby smuggling ring . As Oojoh and his companions neared the end of their training , they underwent a final test on the Rogue moon — a rock in an inner asteroid belt of the Taris system . There , he successfully traversed the terrain with only the Force to guide him , avoiding a multitude of meteor s raining down from above . However , Oojoh ' s promotion to Jedi Knight was not to be . While he and the other trainees were crossing the Rogue moon , their masters received a vision of the Galactic Republic crumbling due to the rise of the Sith . Determined to prevent such an occurrence , and led by elements of their vision to believe one of their Padawans would be responsible , the Masters agreed to kill their own Padawans . Shortly after returning to Taris , at a special ceremony ostensibly to announce the graduates , four of the five Padawans , including Oojoh , were massacred . The final remaining Padawan , Zayne Carrick , escaped , and was framed by the Masters . Eventually , however , he cleared his name , and Oojoh ' s family finally learned the truth behind his death . Biography . Early life and training . Oojoh was a green skinned Ho ' Din , a reptilian sentient species native to Moltok , a planet in the Atrivis sector of the Outer Rim Territories . Born during the reign of the Galactic Republic , which had just suffered through the Great Sith War of 3996 BBY , and being a Force - sensitive , Oojoh was tested at the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine , and accepted into the Jedi Order for training in the ways of the Force . Along with four other trainees , he was subsequently sent to a small satellite training facility on the prosperous world of Taris in the years leading up to the Mandalorian Wars . The five Jedi trainees — the others being Gharn , a Nagai ; Kamlin , a Falleen ; and two Humans , Shad Jelavan and Zayne Carrick — grew up together , and were each assigned to a Jedi Master . Oojoh was assigned to an imposing Feeorin Jedi named Feln . Under his training , Oojoh successfully brought down the Leverby smuggling ring led by Loopy Leverby , an achievement noted by the Taris Holofeed . Oojoh was present in 3964 BBY , when the Taris academy was visited by Jedi Knights Alek Squinquargesimus and Revan , who were on their way to the front lines of an emerging conflict between the Republic and the Mandalorians . The pair of Knights advocated direct Jedi involvement in the conflict , and sought support from the Taris Masters . They were turned down , however , as the Taris Masters considered the war secondary to efforts to prevent the return of the Sith . Trials on the Rogue moon . The next week , the five Padawans were transported up to the Rogue moon , located within an asteroid belt orbiting Taris ' s sun , for their final Jedi test . The Rogue moon traveled in the opposite direction to the rest of the asteroid field ; consequently , it suffered a constant barrage of meteor impacts of all sizes . This was considered a suitable location to test the trainees ' ability to " see " using only the Force . Each Padawan was clad in a heavy red Enviro - suit with its visor down . In this manner , the Force was the only sense they had available to avoid the constant barrage of meteor impacts . While his master piloted the starship , Oojoh and the other Padawans were dropped from the ship to drift to the moon ' s surface below . Oojoh safely crossed the valley — neither the quickest nor the slowest of the Padawans — and rejoined the Masters who had been waiting on the far side . While waiting , however , the Masters had not been idle . Four of the masters — Feln , Xamar , Q ' Anilia , and Raana Tey — were trained Consulars , a class of Jedi that specialized in Force skills of a cerebral nature , including healing , research , and precognition . Together , they meditated , and with the Force flowing freely in this location , they each received a vision of the future : their own deaths and accompanying ruin for the galaxy . Oojoh ' s master Feln saw himself cut down on his homeworld Odryn , while others saw the return of the Sith , the fall of Jedi Order , or the ruin of the Republic . The four visions were unified by one feature : each involved a figure wearing a red environment suit , just like their Padawans were wearing . Graduation . Following the completion of the Jedi trials , the masters sequestered themselves in the Jedi Tower to discern the meaning of their vision . When they finally emerged , they announced they had made their decisions as to who would graduate to Jedi Knight . They organized a celebratory banquet ahead of their official announcements , to which they invited various family members and guests . Oojoh was present along with Gharn , Jelavan , and Kamlin , but the final Padawan , Carrick , was late . Having been making one final attempt to catch Marn Hierogryph , a local Snivvian criminal , Carrick was foiled and actually crashed through the window of the banquet hall . At this surprise entry , Oojoh ignited his lightsaber , along with the eight other Jedi present , placing them at the throat of the intruder . Although suffering embarrassment , Carrick received no further harm . Later that evening , Oojoh was present for the graduation ceremony in the council chambers at the top of the Jedi tower , although once again Carrick was late arriving . While the other Jedi waited for him , Shad Jelavan questioned whether Carrick would graduate with the rest of the class . When Lucien Draay , Carrick ' s master , answered in the affirmative , Oojoh expressed his surprise at the announcement — Carrick had always finished last in each of the Jedi assignments . His reaction was shared by the other Padawans , each of whom had heard their masters speak disparagingly of the Human ; Oojoh ' s own Master Feln frequently called him a " buffoon . " As the Padawans continued pressing the Masters , Jelavan detected that they were lying . Agitated by the Padawans , the Masters took action earlier than planned : igniting his lightsaber , Feln killed Oojoh , stabbing him through his torso , while the other Masters , likewise , killed their Padawans . The Masters believed this act was the only way to prevent their visions coming to fulfillment — a tragic intervention to save the galaxy . It was at this point that Carrick stumbled into the Council Chambers . Seeing the massacre before him , he quickly fled the scene . Legacy . Initially , the murder of Oojoh and the other Padawans was blamed on Carrick , who managed to successfully evade the Jedi Masters attempts to capture him . The death of the Padawans , combined with the growing threat of the Mandalorians , caused riots on Taris , and the Masters were subsequently recalled to Coruscant and then split up . Master Raana Tey subsequently returned to Taris in pursuit of Carrick , and en route had a nightmare in which Oojoh and the other murdered apprentices swapped positions with their masters and forced her to look at her own body . Despite being pursued by the Taris Masters , Carrick eventually managed to clear his name of the murders , and the Jedi Order revealed the truth to Oojoh ' s family , although it was kept secret from the galaxy at large . Oojoh ' s family later worked with Carrick as part of the Rogue Moon Project , looking after those marginalised by the war . Personality and traits . Oojoh was green skinned , with head - tendrils of mixed blue - green coloration , one of which he wrapped like a Padawan braid . He typically wore a yellow shirt with a brown vest over the top , along with some shoulder guards decorated in gold . He wore black boots , and finally , a utility belt with numerous pockets . Oojoh appeared genuinely pleased to hear that his childhood companion and peer , Zayne Carrick , would graduate to Knighthood , even if the news surprised him . However , when Jelavan , the nominal leader of the trainees , began to question this decision , Oojoh followed along . Oojoh was Force - sensitive and a competent Jedi trainee . For instance , while practicing policing duties on Taris , he brought down the Leverby smuggling ring . Similarly , while on the Rogue moon , he was able to use the Force to guide his steps so as to avoid being struck by a meteor . While he was not the fastest to cross the valley , nor was he the slowest of the Padawans . Behind the scenes . Oojoh was created by John Jackson Miller for the Dark Horse comic series " " . He debuted in " " ( 2006 ) and subsequently appeared in most of the issues of the first story arc " " , and two subsequent issues . However , he was never named in any of the issues — that only occurred in " " a promotional comic set before the main story arc that included an in - universe newsreel — and overall , only received three lines . Oojoh also appeared in the " " , which was the first canon confirmation that he was Feln ' s Padawan — although Miller had previously confirmed this in the production notes on his website — and in " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " . Oojoh ' s lightsaber color is never specified ; however , in the first issue , nine lightsabers are shown to correspond to the nine Jedi . Of these nine , three have not been appointed — two green and one blue .
