Lost Twenty

The Lost Twenty, also known as the The Lost, was a name given to the group of twenty Jedi Masters who left the Jedi Order throughout its history. According to Yula Braylon of the Jedi High Council, the Lost Twenty became disillusioned with the Jedi way of life. Among its ranks, Count Dooku was seduced by the dark side of the Force and consequently became a Lord of the Sith.
==History==
The Lost Twenty was a group of twenty Jedi Masters who renounced their allegiance to the Jedi Order at various times in its history. Every member of the Lost Twenty had forsaken the Order after becoming disillusioned about its principles, indeed the Order's very way of life, according to Jedi Master Yula Braylon, who served on the Jedi High Council.
Jedi Master Keeve Trennis left the Order in what Grand Master Yoda recalled to be a sad event.
During the late era of the Galactic Republic, Jedi Master Dooku became disillusioned the corruption in the Galactic Senate as well as the traditions of the Jedi. In 42 BBY Dooku left the Order and return to his homeworld Serenno, where he reclaimed his title of Count and heritage as a nobleman after overthrowing his corrupt brother, Ramil. His former peers believed his decision was misguided but still held him in high esteem. However the Count of Serenno began to secretly conspire with the Sith Darth Sidious. After the death of his former Padawan Qui-Gon Jinn at the Battle of NabooAge of Republic - Count Dooku 1 in 32 BBY,Star Wars: Galactic Atlas establishes that the events of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, including the Battle of Naboo, occurred in 32 BBY. and following the duel in the Works which saw the death of Jedi Master Yaddle, Dooku embraced the dark side of the Force and adopted the name of Darth Tyranus upon fully becoming the Sith apprentice of Darth Sidious. Publicly, he retained his former identity while serving as the face of a secessionist movement which would develop into the succsession of thousands of disgruntled star systems from the Republic into the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the beginning of the three year long Clone Wars.
By 22 BBY, in the final days leading to the Clone Wars, the group was commemorated by the Jedi Order through a series of sculptural portrait heads, one for each member of the Lost Twenty. The busts were located in the Archives of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant.
==Behind the scenes==
The Lost Twenty were originally introduced in a deleted scene of the 2002 Star Wars film Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones. In the scene, likewise titled "The Lost Twenty," the Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, while searching through the Jedi Archives, observed the bust of Dooku alongside the librarian Jocasta Nu. The pair discussed Dooku's departure from the Order and his recent resurfacing as the leader of the Separatist Movement.
References to the Lost Twenty were made in various products of the Star Wars Legends brand, but they were not reintroduced into the Star Wars canon until the release of the 2015 reference book Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know, in which the question "Who are the Lost Twenty?" is answered.
