In 22 BBY , I ' zak was dispatched to the planet of Hitaka , where she received a mission from Jedi Generals Ki - Adi - Mundi and Aayla Secura to deliver a canister to the clone commander of one of the Republic bases on the world . During her quest , she encountered numerous Separatist battle droids , who tried to halt her progress . In one of the skirmishes between I ' Zak and the droids , the canister was destroyed . After fighting through more enemy forces , I ' Zak reached the base and delivered the broken canister , only to discover that Mundi and Secura had used her presence as a decoy so that they could carry out the actual mission that Supreme Chancellor Palpatine had given them . I ' Zak accepted that fact and expressed her willingness to serve the Republic . Biography . Anise I ' Zak , a Human female , was born during the final decades of the Galactic Republic . During her youth , she was trained in the ways of the Force by the Jedi Order . I ' Zak possessed an insolent attitude and a habit for causing trouble , traits many Jedi Masters believed would prevent her from ascending to the rank of Jedi Knight . In 22 BBY , shortly after the Battle of Geonosis — which initiated the Clone Wars between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems — I ' Zak managed to pass the Trials necessary to become a Knight , although she did so through unconventional methods , and was thus granted Knighthood status . Shortly after her promotion , I ' Zak was dispatched to the planet of Hitaka , where she met with Jedi Generals Ki - Adi - Mundi and Aayla Secura at a Republic - controlled station . During the meeting , Mundi tasked I ' Zak with smuggling a secret canister across enemy lines to one of the Republic camps on the east side of the world , Base " B " , and she was forewarned about the squadrons of CIS battle droids in the forests and fields . As she was making the trek to the base , I ' Zak was attacked by some of the droids of the Separatist Army , though she was able to defeat them before coming across an occupied house . She was ambushed once more by droidekas , causing her to crash into the house and interrupt a native family ' s dinner . With the aid of the family , I ' Zak defeated the droidekas but not before one of them shot and destroyed the canister she was carrying . She was in despair for a moment , but when a group of super battle droids arrived , she proceeded to destroy them . I ' Zak arrived at Base " B " by dusk and gave the broken canister to the clone commander , remarking that her mission had been a failure . However , Mundi and Secura surprised I ' Zak and told her that her mission was a success , in that she provided an adequate distraction for the droid armies while the Generals carried out the true objective that Supreme Chancellor Palpatine had given them . Although she disliked being used in that way , she recognized that it was in the best interests of the Republic . Personality and traits . Anise I ' Zak was light - skinned and had freckles on her face . She had blue eyes and blond hair , and wore a set of brown Jedi robes . During battle , I ' Zak used a lightsaber with a green crystal . She was known for her brazen attitude . She would often use expletives to either help herself conquer her emotions or to conceal her errors . Many of the Jedi Masters felt that her attitude would be a hindrance to her ascending to the rank of Jedi Knight . However , she was able to pass her Trials by using unorthodox methods . When she initially met with Mundi and Secura , she expressed disdain for the Padawan braid she used to wear , and also noted her affinity for repairing her speeder . After the canister she was carrying was destroyed , I ' Zak displayed remorse over her apparent failure and took her anger out on a squad of super battle droids . Upon finding out from Mundi and Secura that she was merely a decoy , I ' Zak came to the conclusion that the Jedi Generals had leaked information to the Separatists about her whereabouts , although she acknowledged that it was in the best interests of completing the mission and that she was glad to have served . Powers and abilities . I ' Zak displayed proficiency in combat against the droid armies on Hitaka , using acrobatics to evade the droids ' blaster fire as well as her lightsaber against them . During one skirmish , she used telekinesis to use her lightsaber and destroy three droids who ordered her to surrender . I ' Zak also displayed an ability to absorb blaster energy with her hands . Behind the scenes . Anise I ' Zak first appeared in the short story " Chain of Command " , which was one of four stories in the of the " " trade paperbacks . She was created by Jason Hall and was penciled by Ethan Beavers . I ' Zak later garnered an entry in " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " .
