Stass Allie

Stass Allie, a Force-sensitive Tholothian female, was a Jedi Master who lived during the final years of the Galactic Republic. She was also the cousin of Jedi Master and Jedi High Council member Adi Gallia. Allie became a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic and gained a seat on the High Council of the Jedi Order late in the Clone Wars when Gallia was killed.
Allie would not serve on the Council long before her demise on the planet Saleucami during the waning hours of the Clone Wars. Having received the command to execute Order 66 from the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, Clone Marshal Commander Neyo and a clone trooper lieutenant opened fire on their general from their speeder bikes, killing her instantly.
==Biography==
===Early life===
Stass Allie was born on Tholoth prior to the Separatist Crisis. She was the cousin of Jedi Master Adi Gallia, who was born into a high-ranking diplomatic family on Coruscant.Star Wars Character Encyclopedia: Updated and Expanded Allie was found to be Force-sensitive and brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to start her Jedi training. She specialized in the art of healing, which would later become an invaluable resource during the long bloody years of the Clone Wars. Like her cousin, Allie would also become a consular and rising star diplomat. She was eventually granted the title of Jedi Master and became a member of the Circle of Jedi Healers, in addition to serving as an overseer of the Medical Corps.
Allie was present in Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's office along with other senators and Jedi as the issue of whether Palpatine should take emergency powers was debated.
===Battle of Geonosis===
After the Jedi Council received word that Senator Padmé Amidala and the Jedi Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi had been captured by the the leaders of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Geonosians, resulting in a sentence to death, Stass Allie was recruited by and joined Mace Windu's Jedi strike team sent to rescue them. She and her fellow Jedi fought valiantly in the Petranaki Arena against the Separatist Droid Army. Most of the Jedi were killed in the ensuing battle, though Allie and others managed to survive long enough to be rescued by the new clone army upon its arrival. The clones proceeded to escort some of the remaining Jedi off the planet while the rest were ferried to key spots on the planet via Republic gunships in order to lead the clones in the wider battle. She and Bultar Swan, who she had been fighting back to back with, boarded the same gunship and were brought to the desert plain where the battle had spread to. The two shared a nod before they both charged forward to continue fighting the Separatist Droid Army.Star Wars: On the Front Lines
===Jedi High Council===
Over the course of the Clone Wars, Allie continued to hone her healing skills even while deployed as a Jedi General and her diplomatic skills were tested as the Separatist threat loomed.
In 19 BBY, Savage Opress killed Adi Gallia during a fierce battle and Stass Allie was invited to take her cousin's place on the Jedi High Council. Allie gratefully accepted and followed Gallia's footsteps. Due to her new responsibilities, Allie frequently appeared at Council meetings on Coruscant as a hologram from the various Republic worlds she was assigned to.
Later that year,The third arc of Star Wars: Yoda features Agen Kolar on the Jedi High Council. "A Seat on the Council" establishes that Kolar replaced Eeth Koth, who served on the Council during The Clone Wars: The Lost Missions. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of "The Wrong Jedi" to 19 BBY. Galactic Atlas also dates the beginning of Great Jedi Purge, which includes the events of "Victory and Death," to 19 BBY. places The Lost Missions between "The Wrong Jedi" and "Victory and Death", dating the events of The Lost Missions to 19 BBY. Kolar was later seen on the Council during , the events of which Galactic Atlas also dates to 19 BBY, including the destruction of the Jedi Order, limiting Kolar's tenure, and Star Wars: Yoda: Size Matters Not, to that year. Allie was present at a meeting during which the Council heard Yoda's report of a devastating weapon known as Operation: Titan that would turn the tide of the war in favor of the Confederacy. However, the available information on the enemy project was insufficient and Obi-Wan Kenobi mentioned that Anakin Skywalker's forces had recently captured a Separatist frigate, suggesting that they sweep the vessel's databanks. Yoda agreed, deciding to go join Skywalker himself. The two Jedi followed their leads and learned that Operation: Titan involved the construction of a new droid army containing "megadroids."Yoda 7 Allie was later present via holocomm when the two reported to the Council that the megadroids were under construction on the planet Golatha and informed them that they planned to destroy the factory there before the megadroids could be deployed on the battlefield,Yoda 8 a task that they were ultimately successful in completing.Yoda 9
Sometime after,Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of as occurring in 19 BBY. Allie was present in the infamous session when Anakin Skywalker was granted a seat as the Supreme Chancellor's representative member and denied Masterhood status; she was later seen in the hologram meetings when Yoda was sent to Kashyyyk and Obi-Wan Kenobi to Utapau.
===Order 66===
As leader of the 91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps, Allie took part in besieging the planet Saleucami during the Outer Rim Sieges. During this momentous time, Kenobi would kill Grievous on Utapau, Yoda would lead the defense of Kashyyyk, and Anakin would betray the Jedi, leading to his fall to the dark side, as well as the commencement of Order 66 and the beginning of the Jedi Purge. Allie was accompanied by the 91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps led by the clone commander Neyo. Unknown to Allie or any of the other Jedi, the clones had all been created with inhibitor chips, forcing them to comply with the execution of Order 66 by performing the extermination of all the Jedi across the galaxy.
As the Order was played on their comlinks from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Allie, along with Neyo and a clone lieutenant, were patrolling the bleak and barren landscape of the war-torn planet on BARC speeders during the mop up operation. She was caught completely off guard as Neyo and his wingman fell back and fired upon her speeder without hesitation. She was killed as the speeder exploded into pieces.
==Personality and traits==
Stass Allie was a focused, stern, young looking woman with a desire to help others. She had indigo eyes and dark skin contrasted with green highlights around her eyes, hands and forehead. As a member of the Tholothian species, Allie had a scaled cranium from which fleshy white tendrils drooped from her head.
==Powers and abilities==
Stass Allie was talented in lightsaber combat, having been trained to knighthood. Her sword skills were grimly tested when she survived the opening battle of the Clone Wars on Geonosis along with 28 others out of the original 211 other members of the strike team. While her swordsmanship was impressive, her talent for Force healing was more so. She passed down this skill to other Jedi, including Barriss Offee.Star Wars Character Encyclopedia: Updated and Expanded Like her cousin, Stass Allie was extensively trained in diplomacy and advisory skills, but when the Clone Wars called for the Jedi to serve as generals, she realised that she was also a skilled warrior.
==Equipment==
Stass Allie possessed a green-bladed lightsaber that she used during the Battle of Geonosis. She also wore tall tan travel boots, a utility belt, a white undershirt with white pants, a grey tunic topped with dark robes. Her head was adorned with a Tholoth headdress consisting of a brown fabric rim framing her face laced with interlocking thin chains which adorned her scaled cranium.
==Behind the scenes==
The creation of the character of Stass Allie is in many ways a retcon that took place prior to the release of any Attack of the Clones products. The filmmaker intended to use the majority of Jedi High Council members in the film's climactic Battle of Geonosis; however, because most of the film was shot in Australia instead of England, local model Lily Nyamwasa replaced Gin Clarke, who portrayed Adi Gallia in Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace. She filmed all of her scenes wearing Adi Gallia's costume, but the filmmakers eventually realized that she looked too different from Clarke's version of the character, so they created a new character for the film, who became known as Stass Allie.
After the death of Adi Gallia in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, in January 2013 the supervising director for the series, Dave Filoni, stated that the animation team had created a character model for Stass Allie and that she was to appear in the show in a later season. This never happened, however. 
Revenge of the Sith depicts Anakin Skywalker to be the one to utter the line "A partial message was intercepted in a diplomatic packet from the chairman of Utapau." However, Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy – A Graphic Novel mistakenly depicts Allie as the one to have said the line.Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy – A Graphic Novel The reference booklet "Yoda and Other Users of the Force" states that Allie only arrived on Saleucami after its battle had concluded during the Outer Rim Sieges, but other sources establish she was part of the Siege of Saleucami proper. As such, "Yoda and Other Users of the Force" must be incorrect.
