Fifth Brother Fifth Brother was the designation used by a gray - skinned humanoid male Inquisitor of the Galactic Empire several years before the Battle of Yavin . On the orders of the Emperor , Darth Sidious , the Fifth Brother was dispatched by the Sith Lord Darth Vader to hunt the growing rebellion against the Empire . He later perished by the hands of former Sith Lord Darth Maul on Malachor . Biography . Fallen Jedi . The individual who became known as the Fifth Brother originally occupied a position within the Jedi Order . At some point after the Galactic Republic was reorganized into the Galactic Empire , he was inducted into an Imperial agency of Force - sensitive assassins called the Inquisitorius , which was tasked with hunting down and eliminating any Jedi who survived Order 66 . To accomplish this , he and his colleagues were trained by The Grand Inquisitor in a training center in the Works , but soon fell under the command of Darth Vader when Darth Sidious first demonstrated the Inquisitorius to Vader , who continued their training in the ways of the dark side of the Force . During his training with Vader , he lost his right hand . Age of the Empire . Serving Darth Vader . After the death of the Grand Inquisitor and after the Sith Lord Darth Vader hunted and broke a growing rebel fleet during the Siege of Lothal , Vader was ordered by Emperor Palpatine , to dispatch another Inquisitor to deal with the growing rebellion against the Empire . Vader soon sent the Fifth Brother to continue the work that he and the Grand Inquisitor had started . During the Imperial assault against the Lothal rebel cell on the planet Seelos , Admiral Kassius Konstantine was ordered to have his Star Destroyer rendezvous with a shuttle he was led to believe carried Lord Vader himself . In reality , however , it carried the Fifth Brother , who arrived aboard Konstantine ' s Star Destroyer to begin hunting the rebellion . Konstantine questioned why his vessel had to divert from Seelos to rendezvous with an Inquisitor , as the diversion may have compromised the assault that ISB Agent Kallus was leading on Seelos , but the Fifth Brother had no interest in the assault and pledged to stop the rebellion himself . Skirmish at the medical station . Later , he was present with both Kallus and Konstantine on the bridge of the Star Destroyer when a power surge at an abandoned " Haven " - class medical station was detected . Though Kallus dismissed it , the Fifth Brother quickly took command and immediately set out for the medical station , unaware that the Seventh Sister was already there and hunting the rebels . When Ezra Bridger and Sabine Wren were fleeing the Seventh Sister , they were met by a grinning Fifth Brother who ignited his lightsaber threateningly . Ezra was captured helping Sabine to escape , with the Fifth Brother reaching him just as the latter fled . He attempted to kill the young Jedi with his lightsaber , only for the Sister to deflect it with her own blade . When the Fifth Brother protested , citing Bridger as his kill , the Sister derided him for short - sightedness and pointed out that the boy could be used to trap his friends . While the Seventh Sister interrogated Ezra , the Fifth Brother went to hunt down Sabine accompanied by two of the Sister ' s ID9 seeker droid s . Hunting her through the corridors , he sensed the presence of Sabine and the Lasat Garazeb Orrelios who had prepared an ambush consisting of several thermal detonator s planted in the corridor . Unfortunately , the Fifth Brother used the Force to lift the detonator s and throw them at the rebels , knocking out Sabine in the process . Hefting the unconscious Mandalorian over his shoulder , the Brother told the two seeker droids to do as they wished with Orrelios ; both droid s were subsequently destroyed when the Lasat crushed them against boxes of medical supplies . The Brother returned to find that Ezra had delivered very little information , but at that moment they received a transmission from " Commander Meiloorun " asking if they needed help ; the Brother forced the two to accept at lightsaber point and then proceeded to Bay Six where the rebels were to arrive . When they got there , they were ambushed by Orrelios in the " Phantom " ; in the chaos , Ezra managed to recover his lightsaber and both boarded the shuttle . Both Inquisitors attempted to hold it in place with the Force , but the Brother was forced to break off to deflect blaster fire and the Sister was nearly dragged out into space when the shuttle burst free , leaving both Inquisitors fuming . Abducting children . Later , the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister boarded a passenger ship above the planet Chandel to seize a Force - sensitive infant named Alora . Despite the best efforts of Alora ' s grandmother Darja to stop them , the two Inquisitors managed to corner them and took Alora into custody . Prior to leaving the ship , the Brother killed all of the other passengers by throwing his double - bladed lightsaber at them . The Inquisitors ' actions attracted the attention of the former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano and the rebel crew of the " Ghost " . While Ahsoka traveled to Chandel , Ezra , his master Kanan Jarrus , Zeb , and Chopper traveled to the planet Takobo aboard the " Phantom " to investigate . Taking Alora with them , the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister traveled to Takobo to collect a Force - sensitive Ithorian infant named Pypey . After parking their TIE Advanced starfighters at a spaceport hangar bay in Hammertown , the two Inquisitors left a seeker droid to guard their ship and the baby . Together , they then visited Pypey ' s home and confronted her mother Oora . However , Oora had already sent her child away with a droid . Before leaving the house , the two Inquisitors accosted her and smashed the furniture in her home . While prowling the streets of Takobo , the two Inquisitors managed to intercept the droid . However , Pypey had already been picked up by Zeb . The Fifth Brother and Seventh Sister then pursued Zeb to a nearby apartment building . While the Brother used Pypey ' s fear to track the Jedi , the Sister sent one of her seeker droids to keep an eye outside . Shortly later , Ezra and Kanan entered the building to aid Zeb . Ezra ' s presence caused Pypey to cry since he could sense the boy ' s fear . Closing in on the rebels , the Fifth Brother and Seventh Sister attempted to spike them out with their lightsabers . Bridger managed to temporarily mislead the Inquisitors by using a comlink to make a recording of Pypey ' s cries . The Fifth Brother fell for that ruse and was warned by the Seventh Sister to stop wasting their time . In the meantime , the rebels managed to escape the room and made a run for the stairs . To confuse the Inquisitors , the rebels split up ; with Bridger and Pypey heading into the ventilation shafts while Kanan and Zeb held off the Inquisitors . Resuming their pursuit , the Fifth Brother sensed Ezra and Pypey ' s presence in the ventilation shaft above . He then used his lightsaber to spike holes in the ceilings in an attempt to flush out their quarry . Before the two Inquisitors could corner their prey , they were confronted by Kanan and Zeb . Zeb took on the Brother but was unable to match the Inquisitor ' s Force power s . Forced to retreat , Kanan and Zeb jumped out of the window and fled on a speeder . In response , the Inquisitors commandeered another speeder and continued the pursuit . Following another skirmish , the Inquisitors cornered their rebel foes outside the spaceport . The two Inquisitors quickly overpowered the three rebels . Before they could finish off their work , the spaceport doors opened to reveal Tano . While the other rebels retreated aboard the " Phantom " with Pypey , Ahsoka engaged the two Inquisitors in a lightsaber duel . Armed with two lightsabers , she engaged both Inquisitors for a few moments before effortlessly side - swiping the Fifth Brother ' s clumsy attack and throwing him against a pillar , knocking him out . The Seventh Sister put up a better fight , but was soon defeated as well . Before Ahsoka could finish the Sister , Imperial reinforcements arrived in the form of stormtrooper s and a few Imperial Troop Transport s . Though the Brother threw his lightsaber at her to try and prevent her escape , Ahsoka managed to dodge it and escaped with her rebel comrades and the babies aboard the " Phantom " . To add insult to injury , the Fifth Brother and Seventh Sister discovered that the rebels had also destroyed their TIE Advanced fighters and taken Pypey . However , the Inquisitors were delighted to learn from one of the Sister ' s seeker droids that the rebels were hiding on the planet Garel . Raid on Garel . Following their skirmish with the rebels on Takabo , the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister joined forces with Kallus and Konstantine to attack the rebel presence on Garel . The two Inquisitors accepted Kallus ' suggestion that the Imperial servants work together to capture Phoenix Squadron , which included the crew of the " Ghost " . The Fifth Brother and Seventh Brother took part in the ground assault and encountered Bridger and Jarrus in their hangar bay . Despite the Sister ' s best efforts to goad Ezra into attacking them , Kanan prevented the fight from occurring by shutting the blast door ; leaving the Inquisitors on the other side . The crew of the " Ghost " then took advantage of this delay to escape into the atmosphere above Garel . Pursuing the Jedi . For several months , the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister pursued Kanan and Ezra . The two Inquisitors cornered the two Jedi while they were scout ing Oosalon as a potential site for a new rebel base . During the duel , the Fifth Brother threw Ezra down a cliff but the young Jedi managed to cling onto his master . The two Jedi counter - attacked with their lightsabers but were pushed back to the edge of the cliff by the two Inquisitors . Before the Inquisitors could finish off their Jedi opponents , the two Jedi managed to escape on the back of a tibidee before being picked up by Chopper in the " Phantom " . Later , the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister visited the Jedi Temple on the planet Lothal . They landed their TIE Advanced v1 starfighter s moments after Chopper had departed the scene on the " Phantom " . While the Brother did not sense the presence of the Jedi and thought they had left , the Sister could still sense that they were hiding in the Temple . Using their Dark Side powers , the two Inquisitors forced their way into the Temple . After forcing the Temple open , the two Inquisitors entered the structure only to be confronted by several spectral Jedi Temple Guard s , who were part of a Force vision . The two Inquisitors recognized the leader as having the face of the late Grand Inquisitor , who had once been a Jedi Knight . While the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister both survived their supernatural encounter , they failed to captured the Jedi . However , they managed to capture the Temple and promptly informed their master Darth Vader , who came to visit the site in person . Imperial reinforcements including stormtroopers and patrol transport s also surrounded the Temple . When the Fifth Brother reported that the Jedi were growing in their power , Vader assured him that it would be their " undoing " . Malachor . The Fifth Brother was ordered by Darth Vader to travel to Malachor with the Seventh Sister and obtain a Sith holocron from within a Sith temple located beneath the planet ' s surface . She and her accomplice came to the aid of the Eighth Brother after he was captured by Jarrus and Tano ; all three Inquisitors were forced to retreat when their opponents were joined by Bridger and his new companion , the former Sith Lord Maul . Having escaped her adversaries , the Seventh Sister dispatched some of her ID - 9 seeker droids to spy on them . While the Sister pursued Maul and Ezra , the Fifth Brother went after Ahsoka and Kanan , ambushing them on one of the Temple parapets . Managing to catch them off - guard , he was soon joined by the Eighth Brother and together they engaged the Jedi . The situation soon turned against them when Maul , having slain the Seventh Sister , leapt into the fray and engaged the two Inquisitors on behalf of the Jedi . Taking advantage of the Fifth Brother ' s distraction in fending off Maul , Ahsoka lunged forwards and struck the hilt of his lightsaber , damaging the weapon and causing him to drop it . Defenseless , the Fifth Brother was swiftly cleaved through the stomach by Maul ' s lightsaber , ending his life . Personality and traits . The Fifth Brother was a tall , muscular humanoid male with mint eyes and gray skin . He wore the gray and black uniform of an Inquisitor , wore a metallic headpiece , and carried a double - bladed spinning lightsaber . When Ezra Bridger was captured , he attempted to execute him on the spot , only to be stopped by the Seventh Sister who derided him for his short - sightedness as the boy could be used as bait . Powers and abilities . The Fifth Brother held some skill in telekinesis and was able to control multiple thermal detonators , keeping them from exploding when thrown at him and then sending them back at an opponent to explode . He possessed a keen sense , which enabled him to sense the emotions of his quarry and deduce they were trying to ambush him . He showed some skill in lightsaber combat , throwing his lightsaber with deadly precision and engaging in a few saber locks with Ahsoka Tano . However , he seemed to prefer to rely on brute force and heavy slashes , lacking any finesse or agility in contrast to most of his fellow Inquisitors . Though he was able to engage Ahsoka briefly , he was proven to be no match for her and was swiftly knocked out of the fight . Behind the scenes .
