## Bear Training Clan

*Affiliations: The Jedi*

The Bear Clan of The Jedi Order during the Clone Wars was taught by the great Jedi Master Yoda. It consisted of six bright young Jedi hopefuls, each who excelled in various aspects of the Jedi teachings. However, each member of the Bear Clan shared an impressive skill with the Lightsaber. It was the Bear Clan that helped Obi-Wan Kenobi solve the mystery of the missing planet, Kamino, shortly before the Clone Wars began.

Several talented pupils comprised the Bear Clan. The young Togruta girl named Ashla showed great promise in nearly all of the most powerful Jedi abilities and was expected to one day become a influential member of the Jedi Council. Chian, a young Kajain'sa'Nikto was praised for his remarkable natural abilities as a hunter. A Human youngling named J.K. Burtola had a fondness for puzzles and was quite adept at solving riddles. Jempa, a male Whiphid, was considered to embody the namesake of the Bear Clan in that he was a formidable duelist with a Lightsaber. The Human boy Liam's Lightsaber style was often compared to the late Qui-Gon Jinn, and possessed considerable skill with telekinetic manipulation. The soft-spoken Human girl, Mari Amithest, was close friends with her fellow Bear Clan member J.K. Burtola, and incorporated an extraordinary acrobatic prowess in her Lightsaber fighting style.

The entirety of the Bear Clan was present in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant when the Clone Wars ended. It is unknown as to whether any of its members survived the slaughter of Jedi at the temple when Palpatine issued Order 66 and had the members of The Jedi Order exterminated for treason.
