Dass Jennir Dass Jennir was a Human male Jedi Master who served as a general during the Clone Wars , and survived Order 66 . During the Clone Wars , he was stationed on New Plympto , leading the Galactic Republic ' s war effort against the Separatist Nosaurians . Several months into the campaign on New Plympto , Jennir ' s clone troopers executed Order 66 — declaring all Jedi enemies of the Republic — and attempted to kill Jennir . He evaded them , eventually finding refuge among the Nosaurians he had been fighting against . Jennir led the Nosaurians into battle against the Republic ' s successor , Palpatine ' s Galactic Empire , though they incurred heavy losses ; of the New Plympto resistance soldiers , only Jennir and his friend Bomo Greenbark survived the Battle of Half - Axe Pass . The two companions left the planet in Captain Schurk - Heren ' s smuggling ship , the " Uhumele " , traveling to Orvax IV , where Greenbark ' s wife and child were being kept as slaves . Greenbark ' s wife had been killed and his daughter had been sold on , though Jennir managed to procure the identity of Resa Greenbark ' s seller , Orso Meeto , and broke the Jedi Code when he killed Meeto . The " Uhumele " ferried Jennir and Bomo to Esseles , where Resa ' s buyer , Dezono Qua , lived ; they attacked his fortress , cornering him , but Qua had already killed Bomo ' s daughter and eaten her . Jennir murdered the man , but Greenbark and the " Uhumele " ultimately left Esseles without him . He continued to live his life as a Jedi , however , vowing to stay true to the Jedi Code and find redemption . His travels took him to Cato Neimoidia , but he quickly ran low on funds and had to accept a job that rankled with his Jedi teachings , which quickly saw him facing overwhelming odds . He also met Ember Chankeli , and after finishing the job the two left for Vondarc , but crash - landed on Prine . After a two - week trek through the desert , Chankeli was captured by pirates . In the meanwhile , the assassin Falco Sang was hunting Jennir . Jennir attempted to rescue Chankeli , whom he had begun to develop feelings for , but failed , and Sang took Chankeli , meaning to lure Jennir into a trap . Though Jennir saw through this , Chankeli was shot by Sang ' s droid . Sang fled , and when Jennir attempted to heal Chankeli with the Force , he passed out from the effort . He later woke on board of the " Uhumele " , with Bomo Greenbark at his side . The two friends were overjoyed to see each other again , and Jennir learned that Chankeli had survived , being healed by Beyghor Sahdett . Jennir became romantically involved with Chankeli . Biography . Early life . A Force - sensitive Human male , Dass Jennir was trained in the ways of the Jedi Order , living in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant . He was regarded by his superiors as having a poor connection to the Force , and being " average " in every respect , though he did not fail when it came to concentrating . When one Jedi Master reported to Grand Master Yoda that Jennir would never become a " great Jedi " , the young Padawan sullenly listened nearby , hidden behind a pillar . His master taught him that if he could not walk away from a fight , he should take control of it , forcing his opponent to fight him on his own terms . Jennir never forgot the lesson . At one point , Yoda told him that even with his average abilities , the galaxy still needed him . Clone Wars . Jennir was made a Jedi Master by the time of the Clone Wars , becoming a Jedi General of the Grand Army of the Republic when the galaxy - spanning conflict began . Close to the war ' s end , he was sent to the planet New Plympto , located within the Core Worlds . Commanding a sizable contingent of clone troopers , Jennir was tasked with dealing with the native Nosaurian population — who had allied themselves with the Confederacy of Independent Systems — as well a large amount of Separatist battle droids , and reclaiming the world . They fought many battles during the Clone Wars , and Jennir found the Nosaurians to be determined fighters . In 19 BBY , Jennir ' s clone troopers — like those in every other unit of the Grand Army of the Republic — were told to execute Order 66 , which dictated that all Jedi were enemies of the Republic , and were to be killed immediately . He was able to evade his attackers , however ; confused and disoriented , he fled into the forest , hiding from his pursuers in the underbrush . Eventually , the clones left the area to continue their search elsewhere , and Jennir continued his flight into the jungle . Eventually , he encountered Bomo Greenbark , a lone Nosaurian soldier . Greenbark was unarmed , his weapons lying on the ground beside him ; fearing that the Nosaurian would alert the clones to his presence , Jennir attacked him . He managed to pin Greenbark down , and made him swear to be extremely cautious and quiet . Eventually , however , Greenbark realized that Jennir was a Jedi , and gathered up his weapons , ready to strike . The Jedi Master was able to calm him down , telling him that changing circumstances meant that the two were on the same side . To Jennir ' s sadness , Greenbark confirmed to him what he had feared — throughout the galaxy , many Jedi had been slaughtered by the soldiers under their command . Greenbark decided he could trust Jennir , as they had a common enemy , and began to lead the Jedi back to the Nosaurian settlements . En route , Greenbark told his companion of his people ' s recent hardships ; their main export , rikknit egg s , had been their key to gaining a place within the Galactic Republic , but the Republic had refused their entry and cracked down on the exportation of these eggs . With few other options , they threw their lot in with the Separatists . This information had never been given to Jennir , who found himself warming up to the Nosaurian people after hearing of their plight . Greenbark ' s fellow Nosaurians , however , were less easily persuaded that the Jedi , whom they had been fighting against for months , was now a friend ; upon meeting a group of the natives in the forest , Jennir was attacked . They ignored Greenbark ' s pleas , though under the orders of Commander Rootrock , they eventually backed off . Rootrock and Jennir conferred , and the aged commander told Jennir of the supposed grab for power the Jedi Order had made on Coruscant . They both knew such allegations to be false . Rootrock attempted to recruit Jennir into his army ; without the Separatist droids , they were susceptible to attack from the newly formed Galactic Empire , and Jennir could provide them with protection and leadership in battle . Jennir , however , wished to visit the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to witness the extent of Order 66 for himself . He promised to join Rootrock ' s militia when he returned if the commander provided him with a means of transport . Rootrock agreed , and Jennir departed for Coruscant — now renamed " Imperial Center " — shortly thereafter . Once there , he made his way to the Jedi Temple , which had been closed off to the public . Many had gathered around the building , including several Jedi , though they kept their identities secret . Jennir could do nothing but watch as a young Jedi , calling for the Order to be rebuilt , was cut down by clone trooper blaster fire ; if Jennir had revealed himself , he too would have been killed . The crowds dispersed , though Jennir sought out another Jedi Master , a Bothan by the name of Kai Hudorra , who had also witnessed the event . The two spoke briefly , Hudorra encouraging Jennir to dispose of his hidden lightsaber and forget that he had ever been a Jedi . Jennir , though , had made promises to Rootrock , and refused . He attempted to recruit Hudorra to his cause , but the old Bothan was adamant that he would live out his life in anonymity . Jennir left Coruscant , feeling that it had been a complete waste of time to have made the excursion in the first place , though he came away with a renewed belief in the Jedi way . Battle of Half - Axe Pass . Jennir returned to New Plympto , upholding his promise to Rootrock , and became a general among the Nosaurians ' armed forces . The Imperial forces remained on New Plympto , hoping to purge the world of its Separatist presence ; however , under Jennir ’ s leadership and guidance , the Nosaurians fought back . They principally used guerrilla warfare , attacking Imperial forces in valleys and quickly retreating back to their forest dwellings . Jennir found that he still had several allies in the planet ' s main spaceport , and used them as spies ; they told him of any Imperial arrivals on New Plympto . Despite this , however , the Nosaurians incurred heavy losses during their skirmishes with the Empire , and after several weeks of warfare , Jennir knew that the Nosaurian Separatists would eventually be defeated by the Empire . Some time after Order 66 , the Nosaurians themselves realized they would die fighting , and made arrangements for their loved ones — children , wives , and parents — to be transported offworld . Jennir led what little remained of the Nosaurian forces during the Battle of Half - Axe Pass . The Nosaurians did poorly in the initial stages of the conflict , and Jennir — who had taken to using conventional blasters in place of his lightsaber — knew they would likely perish fighting . Bomo Greenbark was tasked with evacuating the Nosaurian civilians , escorting their single transport toward the planet ' s spaceport so they could travel to Sullust ; Jennir , Rootrock and the others held on to their lives knowing that for every extra minute they occupied the Imperials , the civilians would have that much longer to escape . The Imperials continued their onslaught , killing General Rootrock and Commander Limbfree and bringing in heavy TX - 130T fighter tank s , which the Nosaurians were unable to defend against . Greenbark eventually returned to the fighting , having ensured the departure of the civilian transport . Jennir told his friend of the situation , and pleaded with him to order a retreat . The Nosaurians refused , knowing that holding the Half - Axe Pass was a key part of their attempt to evacuate their families . Jennir improvised , using his lightsaber to cut down a large tree , which damaged an Imperial tank and blocked the path of further vehicles . He planned to use this tactic to continue distracting the Empire while the other Nosaurians made a retreat . The stormtroopers had realized this , though , and when Jennir moved into position to cut down the next tree , a powerful blaster shot from one of the Imperial tanks sent him and Greenbark sprawling . The tree was upended and the two soldiers , unconscious , fell into a pit created by the tree ' s movement . As such , they avoided the rout that followed , in which every single Nosaurian was killed by the attacking stormtroopers , even those who had surrendered . The " Uhumele " . After some time , the two awoke and worked together to climb out of their pit , eventually stumbling upon the battlefield where the Nosaurians had been slaughtered . After seeing the bodies of their comrades , which upset the pair , Greenbark wanted to launch a suicide attack against the Imperials there and then . Jennir ' s counsel prevailed , however , and the two covertly made their way into the planet ' s main spaceport so that they could find passage offworld . Once they had arrived , however , the Jedi noticed that the port was nearly filled with docked and berthed ships ; they had expected it to be deserted , with many spacers ferrying the Nosaurian women and children to various parts of the galaxy . Suspicious , they skulked around the port for a time , eventually entering a smuggling ship called the " Uhumele " . A woman , Crys Taanzer , was acting as a sentry , though Jennir managed to silence her when she noticed the two in her ship . They walked into the ship ' s main entertainment area , however , where the entire crew of the " Uhumele " had gathered — the captain , Schurk - Heren ; Mezgraf and Ko Vakier , who acted as gunners and bodyguards ; the navigator , Lynaliskar K ' ra Snyffulnimatta ; and Meekerdin - maa and Janks , the ship ' s engineers . Once Jennir told them of his and Greenbark ' s situation — omitting the fact that he was a Jedi — Heren agreed to transport them to whatever destination they wished ; he was no friend of the Empire , either . They told him of Greenbark ' s family , and that the refugees should have arrived earlier in the day . Greenbark ' s family and all the other civilians , however , were never in the spaceport , as their transport had been intercepted by the Empire . To Greenbark ' s immense distress , Heren told them that all of those captured had been sold to slavers on Orvax IV . The two outlaws were given quarters on Heren ' s ship and told that they could stay with the " Uhumele " for as long as they wished . Despite Jennir ' s attempts to calm him , Greenbark was still distraught at the news of his family ' s fate . They had little time to settle into their quarters , though ; Crys Taanzer reported that Imperial stormtroopers were searching every ship in the starport , and Heren , who had illicit cargo of his own , called a meeting in his lavish living quarters . The Yarkora captain informed the crew of the situation , and asked them what course of action they each wished to take . Several of the crew were eager to attempt to blast their way out of New Plympto , but Jennir , knowing they would be destroyed before they were successful in any such attempt , proposed an alternate plan . If all of the other ships in the port took off simultaneously , the " Uhumele " would be able to escape in all the commotion , according to the Jedi Master . The plan was shot down by the crew , who had doubts about the trustworthiness of some of the other ships docked on New Plympto . Determined to see himself and his friend offworld , Jennir decided to give the other ships a " reason " to leave . He left the " Uhumele " and made his way back into the jungle , hiding in the underbrush and lying in wait for an impending Imperial convoy . As the convoy passed , the Jedi Master killed a lone stormtrooper of the 501st Legion , taking his armor . Jennir returned to the city , now disguised as a stormtrooper , and commandeered a V - wing starfighter . After contacting the crew of the " Uhumele " and telling them to prepare to take off , he began firing on parked vessels , with the intention of scaring the various crews into fleeing . With the " Uhumele " in front , every ship in the spaceport took off , leaving the Imperials confused and stretched for personnel . ARC - 170 starfighters were sent in pursuit of Schurk - Heren and Jennir , though the combined firepower of Jennir ' s starfighter and the " Uhumele " held them at bay . When they reached space , Jennir docked with the other ship and they set off into hyperspace . Journey to Orvax IV . The " Uhumele " made inroads towards Orvax IV , and Jennir , exhausted after the day ' s exploits , was treated to a feast of fine cuisine prepared by the ship ' s Togorian chef , Mezgraf . A former slave on Orvax IV himself , Mezgraf told Greenbark and Jennir of the planet ' s horrors . Greenbark was appalled and extremely worried for his daughter ' s and wife ' s safety , though Jennir urged him to remain hopeful for the future . Jennir , however , was having difficulty holding on to that hope himself . He was unsure of what path to take in life , and was frightened at the prospect of the Sith wiping out " all " of the Jedi . Jennir was also becoming suspicious of Heren ' s hospitality towards the two of them , and began to wonder if the Yarkora had an ulterior motive in aiding them . He voiced his concerns to Greenbark , though the Nosaurian reasoned that their assisting the " Uhumele " in getting off - planet made Heren indebted to the pair . Jennir ' s suspicions did not subside , though . Eventually , Schurk - Heren announced that they had arrived at Orvax IV . Mezgraf and Heren believed that it was likely that the Resa and Mesa Greenbark had already been separated and sold , though Bomo and Jennir were determined to track them down . They had realized that , should they locate the group of Nosaurians taken from New Plympto , Bomo would have to leave behind many of his friends when rescuing his family ; they would be unable to release so many prisoners in secrecy , though Bomo felt that he would be strong enough to leave his fellow Nosaurians . Eventually , after several members of Heren ' s crew pledged their assistance , Jennir formulated a plan . Greenbark , Jennir and three of the " Uhumele " crew — Ko Vakier , Mezgraf , and Meekerdin - maa — infiltrated Orvax IV ' s slave district , their identities and species concealed by large cloaks . Meekerdin - maa , a short Tintinna , and Greenbark , who was also considerably shorter than Jennir and the others , wore Jawa disguises . On the planet , Mezgraf guided them to where the slaves were kept , though en route they inadvertently caused a Vulptereen driving a swoop bike to collide with a huge , lumbering creature walking on Orvax IV ' s streets . The creature became flustered and began to stampede through the boulevard . Mezgraf managed to climb onto the beast ' s back , though , and subdued him , moments before he would have trod upon Jennir . In dismounting the creature , however , Mezgraf accidentally revealed the tattoo on his bicep that marked him as a former slave . A nearby being alerted the T ' surr guards to his presence , though Jennir was able to use a mind trick of the Force to dissuade them . Not wanting to reveal his Force - sensitivity to the others , he told them that he had bribed the guards . Moments after the T ' surr left , Greenbark discovered the location of a group of female Nosaurian captives , and rushed off to speak with them . Jennir and the others gave chase , but so did several more T ' surr guards . Ko Vakier , Mezgraf , and Jennir arrived just in time to save Greenbark and Meekerdin - maa from the guards ' wrath , and managed to incapacitate or kill each of the T ' surr . Bomo then spoke with the Nosaurian civilians , though they informed him that his wife Mesa had been killed just hours earlier trying to stop the slavers from taking Resa , who was now in captivity . Straying from the path . Jennir told the others to return to the " Uhumele " , and that they should depart Orvax IV if he did not arrive back at the ship by midnight . The others left , Mezgraf having to physically haul Greenbark away , though before he went to follow the others Meekerdin - maa revealed that he knew Jennir was a Jedi , hoping for the Force to be with him — a phrase often used between Jedi . The rest of the Nosaurian captives , trapped in a large , caged pit , pleaded with him to rescue them , though Jennir ignored their cries and left them . If they were to be freed , his chances of finding Resa Greenbark would have dropped considerably . Jennir spent most of his day making subtle and discreet inquiries into the identity of the slaver who sold Resa , eventually finding success . The seller was a wealthy Chagrian by the name of Orso Meeto ; after using some more overt methods , Jennir discovered he lived in a penthouse apartment in one of Orvax IV ' s richer districts , and that he would be staying in his home that evening . Armed with just a single blaster pistol , Jennir ascended the many stories of the building until he reached Meeto ' s abode . He climbed up onto a balcony , opening a set of doors into a room where Meeto was watching a holographic Chagrian female dancing . Before Meeto could summon his guards , Jennir held him at gunpoint , showing him a tiny holograph of Resa Greenbark , and asked where the girl was currently . Meeto responded that she had been sold to a man from Esseles named Dezono Qua . With all the information he needed , Jennir was left with a difficult decision : kill Meeto and escape without incident , or leave him alive and able to warn Qua . Realizing that he would be departing the path of the Jedi forever , Jennir fired at him from point - blank range , killing him instantly . He initially felt that he had made the right decision , and was exhilarated by the freedom of not having to follow the Jedi Code . The Chagrian ' s guards , however , entered the room at the sound of the shot . Jennir dodged their blaster bolts and leaped out the balcony window , beginning a lengthy plummet towards a domed building . As he fell , he again began to have doubts about his choices in life , and regretted breaking the Jedi Code . Jennir smashed through the dome ' s roof , landing in a heap on a group of Neimoidians . He fled the building , though Meeto ' s Chagrian bodyguards pursued him and contacted the planet ' s other security organizations . Jennir eventually managed to evade them , though , arriving at the " Uhumele " just minutes before his self - appointed deadline at midnight . He handed over Dezono Qua ' s coordinates , and Bomo thanked him profusely , but Jennir wished to be left alone . He mulled over what he had said to Kai Hudorra on Coruscant , that he would continue to be a Jedi , but realized that in just a few months , he had already made a great many compromises and had committed foul deeds . He began to wonder how much more of his old self he could give for his friends . Vengeance . The " Uhumele " made the trip to Esseles in several days , arriving at the planet ' s capital city , Calamar . Once there , Jennir inquired with local officials about Dezono Qua , learning that the Human was the only heir to an affluent family and that he lived alone in a heavily defended mansion atop a steep mountain . Qua was a recluse , and though the local authorities had suspicions about him , his bribes dissuaded them from looking into things . Jennir told the others that Qua ' s fortress was guarded solely by battle droids , and volunteered himself and Greenbark to carry out the raid on the mansion , since they both knew the capabilities and limitations of battle droids from their time serving in the Clone Wars . Heren and his crew , however , wished to be a part of the attack on Qua and pledged their assistance . They flew the " Uhumele " towards Qua ' s fortress , landing just outside the perimeter . Qua ' s IG - series security droids went to investigate ; Jennir , Greenbark , and all of the " Uhumele " crew burst out of the ship with all guns blazing , and were able to easily destroy the first wave of droids . Greenbark , Meekerdin - maa , and Janks made for where the droids could be deactivated , while Heren , Mezgraf , and Ko Vakier assaulted the mansion ' s ground floor . Jennir used the Force to leap up onto the higher levels of the fortress , using the abilities afforded to him as a Jedi to destroy any droids he came across as he traveled towards Qua ' s location . He used the Force without restraint , reasoning that if he rescued Resa Greenbark , his earlier unsavory deeds would be redeemed . Bomo ' s team eventually powered down the droids , so Jennir was able to reach the landing platform with Qua ' s ship before Qua himself arrived . Jennir held the recluse at gunpoint , demanding to know where Resa was being held . Qua offered to bribe Jennir , though he refused , and Bomo — who had arrived with Meekerdin - maa and Janks , as well as Heren ' s group — reiterated his friend ' s demand . Qua simply mocked them , telling them that Resa , like all the other younglings he had purchased , was dead — he had eaten her . Bomo , Ko Vakier , and Mezgraf all prepared to attack the Human , but Jennir reacted the quickest , shooting him three times in the chest . Bomo was furious at Jennir for killing Qua ; the Nosaurian wanted to find vengeance himself , and shouted that Jennir had no right to kill the man . Jennir knew that Bomo ' s killing Resa ' s killer would not bring her back , and believed that murdering Qua would impact negatively on his friend . Bomo attacked his companion , and in the process inadvertently revealed to the " Uhumele " crew that he was a Jedi . Alone . Soon after Qua ' s death , the others left Jennir on Esseles , departing in the " Uhumele " . Some , like Mezgraf , expressed their desire for Jennir to remain with the crew , but the majority of them were angry at him for killing Qua and not allowing Greenbark to have his revenge . Bomo ' s anger toward his friend eventually subsided , though Jennir and the " Uhumele " were on opposite sides of the galaxy by that time . Jennir decided to continue his life alone , and vowed to himself to remember and continue practicing the principles he had been taught as a Jedi Padawan . He drastically changed his appearance , distancing himself from his Jedi past physically ; though tempted to dispose of his lightsaber , he eventually decided to keep it . He departed Esseles in Qua ' s ship determined to allow the Force to guide his future . He took H2 , Qua ' s pilot droid , on his travels , and it followed him whenever he ventured off ship . The two were not on great terms , though , as H2 held a grudge against Jennir for murdering Qua . True balance restored . Eventually , Jennir ran extremely low on funds . Reasoning that even a fugitive Jedi had to eat , he began to search for work , eventually finding his way to Cato Neimoidia . The former Trade Federation and Separatist planet was ripe for plundering , making it a haven for hordes of scavengers and grifters from across the galaxy . His search for a job led him to a shady Cato Neimoidian cantina , reputed as a place to find off - the - record jobs without hassle . As each job offer was posted directly by the client , who then chose from its applicants , it was a closed system for hiring mercenaries , smugglers , and their ilk , hidden from the Empire . For a time , though , Jennir was not able to find a job that would allow him to continue following the teachings of the Jedi , and he accepted none . He grew hungrier , more broke , and more desperate . One day , while still waiting in the cantina , Jennir ' s attention was attracted to a woman entering the establishment . Dressed in a large , hooded robe that concealed her appearance , she possessed a distinctive scent , which piqued Jennir ' s interest . The rest of the cantina ' s denizens promptly took notice of her , too , sensing that a new job was opening up . As the woman passed Jennir , he felt that her job might be different from the rest , one his Jedi scruples would permit him to carry out . Before long , her description of the job was broadcast on the cantina ' s holoscreen system . Named Ember Chankeli , she was in need of a warrior or security guard to rid her town of a gang , either “ by guile or by force ” . Jennir believed that it was a job he could accept , as , according to Chankeli , dealing with the gang would make her town safe again — it didn ' t hurt that it also paid well . He noted the time and place where he could meet her to apply for the job , but another patron of the cantina stopped him before he could leave . A Chistori — strong and belligerent , but not very bright — claimed the job was his . After the Chistori lunged at him , Jennir sent him sprawling onto the floor , but the Chistori was quick to his feet , and launched another charge . This time , Jennir pushed him through the cantina ' s window , and sending him onto the walkway below . To ensure the Chistori was incapacitated , Jennir kicked him in the head , then turned to leave for his ship . He met up with H2 , who mocked him for getting into yet another scuffle . They returned to the ship , and Jennir hoped that the meeting with Chankeli in the morning would see his luck change . The next day , Jennir found Chankeli at the arranged meeting place , though another hopeful job applicant was already present . Both Jennir and the other applicant , a young Human male , pressed Chankeli for more details on the job before committing to anything . Hesitantly , she told them that her town ' s flourishing tourist trade had come to a halt as a result of the gang setting up a base in the area , and she wanted things back to the way they were before the gang ' s arrival . When she informed them that the gang had over forty members , the other applicant couldn ' t fathom how two men would triumph over them , but Jennir was confident enough in his abilities . Chankeli suggested they infiltrate the gang , which was recruiting , and take it down from within , sowing discord and dissension between its members , making the gang ' s leader and his chief enforcer turn on each other . Before Chankeli could further elaborate , Jennir ' s Chistori rival arrived with a gang of cronies , intent on taking the job himself . Jennir goaded the Chistori into attacking him and swiftly tossed the brute aside . One of his companions , a Kilmaulsi , charged at Jennir but again the Jedi Master was able to deal with him , with the help of a subtle application of the Force . With the attackers all incapacitated , Chankeli informed Jennir that the other applicant had fled , and that the job was there for his taking , if he wanted it . She told him more about how he could join the gang ; they were holding a recruitment drive and he could join easily . Chankeli offered to provide him with a room at her " inn " in the town , but made it explicit that he must not converse with her in public while in the town . When she revealed that the gang was also involved in slavery , Jennir rashly accepted . Chankeli questioned his motives briefly , but then brushed them aside . She then revealed that , in fact , there were more than fifty members in the gang . She provided him with credits and the coordinates to her town , where he would rendezvous with her in two weeks ' time . Despite knowing that he should have refused the job for a number of reasons , Jennir felt that he was finally on the road to restoring his true balance . Job on Telerath . After arriving on Telerath , Jennir Met found water taxi driver named Fish who he hired on as retainer . He soon learned from Fish that there were in fact two gangs , the Slavers and the Spicers , who his employer , Chankeli , did not mention . With Fish ' s help , Jennir found his way to the Slavers ' tryouts . According to the local Sword Law , the Slavers ' head enforcer , Mors Demanna , dueled any prospects in one on one combat , to test their abilities for the gang . While in the crowd , Jennir met a young teen named Dado , who was about to fight in the ring in an attempt to join the gang . Knowing that Demanna clearly had much more skill than the boy , as soon as Dado entered the ring , Jennir used his blaster to disarm every one of the Slavers from their swords . One of the Slavers , infuriated , took out his own blaster and attempted to shoot Jennir in the back . Demanna stopped the slaver himself , and informed Jennir of the local Sword Law , which none were exempt from . The law stated that all disputes should be settled with a sword , thereby peace would be preserved as well as honor . Demanna admonished Jennir , then turned and killed his fellow slaver . He then sliced off Dado ' s arm , telling him to learn his place . Jennir was furious at Demanna ' s cruelty , but knowing he couldn ' t jeopardize his mission , he stayed his hand . Chankeli , who had been covertly watching the confrontation , summoned Jennir discretely , and told him everything was going as planned . Jennir was not so sure . A new war . Jennir met Chankeli again at her hotel , Ember ' s Fire , where he got a room . She warned him about Demanna ' s men , who blamed Jennir for the death of their comrade , cautioning him to lay low for a while . When he asked about the Spicers , Chankeli avoided the question , telling him to take care of " JUST the Slavers . " She provided him with half his payment , telling him to stay in his room . After they parted company , Jennir encountered Nikollane , the mother of Dado , who had lost his hand to Demanna . Because the boy lacked proper medical care , Jennir volunteered his service , saying he had seen many such wounds before . After doing what he could to help , Jennir left on a mission , thanks to useful information that Chankeli had let slip about the Spicers during their chat . With help from Fish and H2 , Jennir made his way to Telerath ' s second moon , where the Spicers had their processing plant . After noting that some of the slaves the Spicers used as labor were Nosaurians , H2 went back to the ship , leaving Jennir to wreak havoc on the gang members . Using the " Sword Law " against the Spicers , Jennir used his blaster with extreme prejudice . As he took down the guards , Jennir noted how his role had changed ; as a Jedi , he had been a peacekeeper , whereas now , without laws or the Republic , he had become a peacemaker , working against those who preyed on the helpless . After breaking a standoff with a guard who threatened a Nosaurian slave ( who had recognized Jennir ) , he told the slaves to take the Spicer ' s ships and leave for a safer place , saying that he still had work to do . He then returned to Telerath , after leaving a knife from one of the Slavers that would be easily identified . Upon his arrival , Jennir met again with Demanna , who brought him into the estate - and presence - of his master , Boss Musori . At Musori ' s command , Demanna engaged Jennir to test his skill with a sword . Jennir struggled somewhat , being more used to handling a lightsaber , but managed to give a good account of himself nonetheless . After being defeated , Jennir left , sowing a seed of discord between the two Chagrians by making a jab at Demanna ' s honor , questioning why he took orders from a " civilian " like Musori . At a sidewalk cantina shortly thereafter , Jennir was approached by four members of the Spicers , sent to bring him to their leader . Bringing the guards to their master after humbling them , he told Ken - Kiba , leader of the Spicers , that the Slavers had destroyed their spice refinery . After receiving no response from the comm , Ken - Kiba mobilized his men . Jennir then left , telling H2 that things would begin to happen - very quickly . Returning to Chankeli ' s hotel , he found out that Dado had left in another attempt to join the Slavers . Jennir immediately departed , and upon finding the young man , reasoned with him , explaining the difference between strength and honor . Just then the Spicers attacked Musori ' s mansion , having found the Slaver knife Jennir had planted as evidence . As Dado remarked in astonishment that they were breaking the Sword Law , Jennir replied that the erupted war had nothing to do with honor , only destruction . Jennir returned with Dado to Ember ' s Fire and encouraged everyone to escape , but it was too late ; Chankeli had figured out Jennir ' s machinations and reported to Ken - Kiba , who came back to the hotel with her just in time to capture Jennir and commence beating him for the damage he ' d caused . With help from Nikollane , he escaped through a trapdoor to the river below , where he was rescued by Fish . He awoke the next morning in Fish ' s house , where his retainer brought him up to speed on what had happened the night before . The Slavers were all dead ( with the notable exception of Demanna ) , and Ember Chankeli was being held prisoner by Ken - Kiba , who believed that she had manipulated him through Jennir for her own benefit . H2 had been shot while getting information for Fish , although he ' d made it back with Jennir ' s sword before shutting down . Jennir then entered a healing trance in order to speed up the recovery from his injuries . Not wanting others to suffer from the consequences of his actions , he planned to stop the Spicers . Unfortunately , the gang figured out where he had been hiding , and came to capture him . While Jennir hid , Fish was taken prisoner , as the guards figured they could use him to find Jennir . Emerging from his hiding place , Jennir retrieved his lightsaber from where he had been hiding it since his parting with Bomo and the Uhumele ' s crew . After liberating the prisoners at Chankeli ' s hotel , he faced off with Demanna once again , easily defeating him this time . When asked how , Jennir replied that he had played to Demanna ' s pride and allowed him to win their first encounter . Freeing Chankeli from her bonds , he went to where the Spicers were tormenting Fish for information on Jennir ' s location . Drawing their attention , Jennir prepared to fight . When Chankeli , who had followed Jennir , asked him why he was doing this , he activated his lightsaber and replied that it was his job . Chankeli agreed to join Jennir , and they set off for Vondarc , where Chankeli claimed to have family , on Desono Qua ' s starship . On the run with Ember Chankeli . Jennir repaired H2 during the flight . Before they could reach Vondarc , however , they were discovered by the Imperial cruiser " Harvester " in the Prine system . Chased by Imperial fighters , Jennir and Chankeli sought refuge on the planet Prine . Having taken damage , their ship crashed on Prine ' s Wasteland . After wandering the wilderness for two weeks , Chankeli confessed to Jennir that she had no family on Vondarc , and hoped to start a new business in the planet ' s busy port . Soon afterwards , Jennir , Chankeli and H2 encountered a caravan of slave traders . While Jennir climbed on a cliff to survey the area for water , Chankeli ran towards the brigands with loud cries , hoping to be rescued , and was kidnapped . Neither knew that Darth Vader , assassin Falco Sang , and the crew of the " Uhumele " ( together with Beyghor Sahdett , another fugitive Jedi ) , were on their tracks . Needing transportation , Jennir used the Force to tame a native animal , and was able to chase after the caravan . As they stopped to rest for the night , however , Jennir noticed that the creature had its leg injured in the struggle . While H2 went to fetch plants for the creature to eat , Jennir focused on healing his mount . Due to his meager connection to the Force , he passed out from the effort . When he awoke , it was morning and the creature ' s leg was fully healed . Jennir then proceeded to catch up to the slavers . He attacked the caravan directly , and fought his way through them before reaching Chankeli and her fellow captive , Maddie . Unfortunately , Sang had caught up to him as well and disabled the hover barge , causing Chankeli to fall overboard . Deflecting sniper fire from Sang , Jennir was unable to help her . Chankeli pleaded with Jennir to take Maddie and run , which Jennir was forced to do . Finding refuge in a valley , Jennir instructed his mount to protect Maddie and guide her back to her village . Though Maddie initially refused to leave , Jennir told her that their attacked would shoot to kill , unlike the slavers . He promised her that he and Chankeli would meet with her in her village . Returning to the site of the fallen barge to ascertain what trap Sang had planned , Jennir spotted Chankeli gagged and bound to a stake . He guessed that Sang was in hiding , expecting him to just walk up . Therefore , he disguised H2 as himself with his cloak and hat to simply walk up to Chankeli ; Sang shot the droid , after which Jennir revealed himself . As he threw the assassin against the barge , Sang revealed that it was H2 who had brought him there . Denozo Qua ' s family had hired him to hunt down Qua ' s murderers . Sang had tracked Jennir all across the galaxy through H2 , until the incident on Telerath , after which the droid stopped transmitting . Sang had then proceeded to track Qua ' s ship , which Jennir was still using , by hacking Imperial records , killing Janks as a bonus . Sang then gave the signal for his droid Izee , who was in a sniper position , to fire , hitting both Chankeli and H2 in one shot . Jennir ran to Chankeli as Sang ordered Izee to fire again . Jennir effortlessly deflected the shot with his lightsaber without even looking , directly into Izee , destroying the droid , to the bounty hunter ' s shock . As Sang took off , Jennir called to H2 to help him but the droid , damaged by Sang , shut down . Jennir then desperately tried to heal Chankeli as he had with the creature , but again , he passed out from the effort . Reunion with Uhumele crew . When Jennir came to , he saw Greenbark standing over him . Greenbark apologized for being mad at him , as he now understood that Jennir killed Qua to spare him from taking vengeance . Jennir then explained Sang ' s part in Janks ' death , and Greenbark sadly added that Sniffles and Crys Taanzer had died too . Jennir then feared that Chankeli met the same fate , only for Bomo to reveal that she was alive and recovering aboard the " Uhumele " . Jennir then impulsively ran into her room and kissed her , causing the crew to decide to leave them alone . He then broke off the kiss and stated his regret , as Jedi were supposed to control their feelings . Chankeli became concerned for Maddie ' s safety ; Jennir went to Schurk - Heren to request that they return to Prine , but was refused , as an Imperial battle cruiser was searching the planet for him . Eventually the conversation shifted to Darth Vader as well as Sahdett himself , whom Jennir did not know . Schurk - Heren explained that he was another Jedi , but had assumed Jennir did in fact know him . Jennir explained that there had been thousands of Jedi , and while it was possible that they had met before , he did not remember . Greenbark then told Jennir of how they had met Sahdett and how he had saved them from Imperials , and that the Verpine had Jedi matters to discuss with Jennir , of which Jennir was happy to oblige . Jennir soon turned his attention back to Chankeli , now dressed in some of Taanzer ' s old clothing . As they spent some time alone , she could tell that he too was worried about Maddie . Even if she managed make it back to her home , he feared that he may have destroyed her hope that she may see the two of them again . He then embraced Chankeli , confiding sorrow over how dark the galaxy has become and that trouble may find them once again . Personality and traits . Jennir was extremely loyal to the Republic , and even after it was abolished and the Empire formed , he held onto the ideals and principles on which the Republic was built . He also had fierce loyalty and kindness for his friends ; he repaid Rootrock ' s providing him with a transport to Coruscant by leading the Nosaurians in combat , honoring the promise he had made . He genuinely cared about those whom he believed were being wronged and did whatever he could to help them . Jennir felt a need to repay Bomo Greenbark for saving his life in the aftermath of Order 66 ; he forsake the principles he believed in to try to find and rescue Bomo ' s family . Ultimately , though they were both very important to him , his friends were more important than his rules of personal conduct . Jennir was a man of action , often putting his life at risk where others would not . He could not sit back and do nothing like the crew of the " Uhumele " while on New Plympto , risking his life to create a diversion . Similarly , he broke into Meeto ' s home in order to procure Resa ' s location , and again led the attack on Qua ' s mansion on Esseles . Jennir was a natural leader ; throughout his life , he led teams of clone troopers , the Nosaurian rebels , and the " Uhumele " crew , earning respect for his endeavors . According to Bomo Greenbark , Jennir felt that , because he was a Jedi , he was automatically in charge and always knew what was best for everyone . Jennir held a deep attachment to the Jedi Order , and he respected and valued everything it preached . During the dark times which followed Order 66 , he maintained his faith in the Order and its philosophies , refusing to believe that the Jedi had attempted to overthrow the Senate as had been reported . Although he did occasionally break the Jedi Code during the Great Jedi Purge , Jennir did not forget his Jedi heritage like Kai Hudorra suggested he do , and strove to continue to behave like a Jedi after leaving the " Uhumele " . Powers and abilities . Jennir was very physically fit as a result of his Jedi training . His fitness , coupled with his Force - sensitivity , allowed him to jump , climb and fight with both effectiveness and ease . During his time serving with the Nosaurians alongside Bomo Greenbark and Rootrock , he fought on rugged , mountainous terrain , diving down steep hills to ambush stormtroopers . He also proved himself to be a proficient climber , ascending hundreds of meters up the side of Orso Meeto ' s apartment building with the aid of little equipment . He did similarly on Esseles , using just the Force to scale Dezono Qua ' s castle . Additionally , Jennir was adept at unarmed combat , outmatching stormtroopers on New Plympto , hulking security guards on Orvax IV , battle droids on Esseles , and mercenaries on Cato Neimoidia without the aid of a weapon . Dass Jennir was proficient at several Force powers and , like most Jedi , could handle himself with his lightsaber , using it on several occasions to create hurdles and obstacles for Imperial forces on New Plympto . Generally , though , Jennir preferred to use blasters during the Great Jedi Purge , utilizing both pistols and rifles , and sometimes both simultaneously . Jennir was also an accomplished pilot , outflying members of the 501st Legion on New Plympto despite flying a starfighter with considerably less armaments . He was also able to perform a powerful Mind trick , using this power to make Bomo Greenbark , forget what he had heard and saw when confronting Jennir about keeping secrets . Behind the scenes . Dass Jennir was created by Randy Stradley , under the pen name Welles Hartley , for the final story arc of " " , , where he was illustrated by Doug Wheatley . Jennir and Bomo Greenbark , two of the main characters in " Into the Unknown " , were again used by Stradley — this time under the alias of Mick Harrison — almost a year later in a new comic series , " " . There were no plans for Jennir and Greenbark to appear again when " Into the Unknown " was published , though Stradley and Wheatley decided to use them for " Dark Times " first story arc , " " . Jennir featured prominently in " The Path to Nowhere " , though did not appear in subsequent story arcs . Randy Stradley , the vice - president of Dark Horse Comics , stated that Jennir would reappear in later " Dark Times " issues , which he confirmed via Darkhorse . com ' s monthly " From the Editor " feature . Jennir will be the main character in the five issue " " story - arc starting in April 2009 . He appeared in an online preview segment on MySpace Dark Horse Presents in January 2009 and appeared in the second segment in February . Jennir was briefly mentioned in " The Force Unleashed Campaign Guide " in 2008 , and received an entry in " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " later the same year . An early concept for Dark Times saw Dass Jennir with short hair , a decision that artist Doug Wheatley discarded at the last moment . Later , during the " Blue Harvest " story arc , this design was reused , with Jennir having shorter hair and a beard . Jennir has proved quite popular among fans , with many likening his physical appearance to that of , a character from " " , though Doug Wheatley has stated that this resemblance is not intentional .
