Kurhran Govan

**Kurhran Govan**, a Force-sensitive Sullustan male, was a Jedi youngling who lived during the fall of the Galactic Republic. Initiated into the Jedi Order at a young age, Govan was sorted into the Akul Clan under the instructorship of Jedi Master Xudi Irris, during which he earned a reputation of performing pranks — often with fellow clanmate Weron Webb — on the rest of his class, which counted Jarik Shan, Ahsoka Tano, Vifi Hethna and Rylla Tann as its members. Among the Initiates not apprenticed as a Padawan by the end of the Clone Wars, Govan was slain by the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker — who had fallen to the dark side of the Force as the Sith Lord **Darth Vader** — during the latter's siege on the Jedi Temple as part of the Great Jedi Purge, and was mourned by then-Padawan Shan as he returned with Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda to investigate the Temple in the siege's aftermath.
