Every New Jedi Introduced In Star Wars: The Clone Wars (& What Happened To Them)

Star Wars: The Clone Wars successfully introduced several new Jedi across seven seasons and a feature film, each meeting a different fate by the end of the series. Chronicling the three-year gap between Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones and Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, The Clone Wars was uniquely suited to show the Jedi at the height of their power. The episodic format, stunning animation, and incredible action showcased the skill and nobility of the Jedi and fleshed-out characters who didn’t have as much screen time in the Star Wars prequel trilogy.

However, one of The Clone Wars‘ greatest strengths was its array of new Jedi characters who had never appeared in any Star Wars story. Whether a main or supporting character, each new Jedi brought something unique to the show and helped viewers connect more with the Jedi Order. 21 total Jedi made their debut in The Clone Wars, some for a single appearance, while others returned for subsequent Star Wars movies and TV shows.

Ahsoka Tano

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008)

Star Wars: The Clone Wars started in 2008 with a theatrically released movie that introduced Anakin Skywalker’s Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. Although the two didn’t get along at first, Ahsoka’s skill and determination gradually earned Anakin’s respect, and he realized that he had a lot to teach her. The two became an unstoppable team throughout the war, pushing each other to grow as Jedi and overcoming impossible odds. Sadly, their time as master and student came to an end when Ahsoka was framed for murder, leading to a falling out with the Jedi that caused her to leave the Order.

Ahsoka did reconcile with her master shortly before she led the Republic at Mandalore, but it would prove to be the last time she saw him as Anakin. She barely survived Order 66 and went into hiding, but an encounter with an Imperial Inquisitor convinced her to work with Bail Organa and the Rebel Alliance. Ahsoka became a prominent character on Star Wars Rebels, where she faced her old master, now Darth Vader, and received her own live-action spinoff, Ahsoka. She and Sabine Wren are currently trapped on the planet Peridea in another galaxy following Ahsoka season 1.

When they reunited during a mission at General Grievous’ lair, Kit discovered that Nahdar lacked restraint and had become too obsessed with power and revenge.

Jedi Master Ord Enisence never made a living appearance in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, only as a dead body in season 2, episode 1 “Holocron Hesit.” He was killed by bounty hunter Cade Bane so that his changeling partner, Cato Parasiitti, could assume his appearance and break into the Jedi Temple. With the help of Cato disguised as Ord Enisence, Bane successfully stole a holocron for Darth Sidious, one that could read a list of every Force-sensitive child in the galaxy. Thankfully, the Jedi retrieved the stolen holocron and rescued the kidnapped younglings.

O-Mer

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 3, episode 21 “Padawan Lost”

O-Mer was one of the Jedi younglings Ahsoka Tano met after being captured by Trandoshan hunters.

However, Ahsoka helped O-Mer to believe in himself again, urging her to make a final stand against the Trandoshans, resulting in their freedom and return to the Jedi Order. It is currently unconfirmed whether O-Mer was killed during Order 66 or was among the Jedi survivors.

Jinx

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 3, episode 21 “Padawan Lost”

Jinx was the final Jedi youngling Ahsoka Tano met after being captured by Trandoshan hunters. While all three younglings had given up on escape, Jinx carried more anger than the others, making him more skeptical of Ahsoka’s plans. Even so, he pushed the others to attack the Trandoshans directly when Kalifa was killed, and he mastered the Jedi mind trick in the process. After returning to the Jedi Temple, it is unknown if Jinx was killed during Order 66 or managed to escape the purge.

Pong Krell

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 4, episode 7 “Darkness on Umbara”

One of the most brutal Jedi generals during the Clone Wars, Master Pong Krell was a ruthless tactician and wielded two double-bladed lightsabers. While his strategies were effective, Krell developed a negative reputation among the clones for his unusually high casualties. This put him at odds with Captain Rex and the other clones during the campaign on Umbara, where they discovered that Master Krell had secretly joined Count Dooku after experiencing a vision of Order 66 and the rise of the Empire. He was captured and later executed by Dogma, the clone soldier who had supported him the most.

Byph was an Ithorian Jedi youngling who participated in the Gathering on Ilum alongside his fellow students, under the supervision of Ahsoka Tano and Jedi Master Yoda. The Gathering challenged each student to face their greatest flaws to find their kyber crystals, and Byph faced his fear and was able to build a lightsaber with his friends. When Ahsoka was captured by Hondo Ohnaka’s pirate band, Byph and the other younglings teamed up to rescue her. Byph was presumably killed alongside his friends during Order 66, although this is not confirmed.

After constructing her lightsaber, she and the other younglings rescued Ahsoka Tano from pirates and even confronted General Grievous. Like her friends, Ganodi was likely killed during Order 66, but this is not confirmed.

7

Gungi

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 5, episode 6 “The Gathering”

Gungi was a Wookiee Jedi youngling who completed the Gathering and constructed a lightsaber with a wooden handle, unusual for most Jedi but appropriate for a native of Kashyyyk. Unlike his friends, Gungi survived Order 66 and went on the run, eventually meeting a group of clones called the Bad Batch who had defected from the newly formed Galactic Empire. Gungi returned to Kashyyyk alongside his new friends, working together to fight off Trandoshan hunters in league with the Empire.

6

Katooni

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 5, episode 6 “The Gathering”

Katooni was among the Jedi younglings who attended the Gathering and constructed a lightsaber under Ahsoka Tano’s supervision. She tended to be the voice of reason among the group, pointing out the flaws in their plan but taking initiative when the time came. Despite rescuing Ahsoka from Hondo Ohnaka, she earned the pirate’s respect when they teamed up against General Grievous. Katooni is confirmed to have been at the Jedi Temple during Order 66, implying she did not survive the purge.

5

Petro

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 5, episode 6 “The Gathering”

Petro was another Jedi youngling who attended the Gathering on Ilum under Ahsoka Tano’s supervision. Although highly self-centered, he overcame his flaw by choosing to help Katooni, even though it nearly cost him the time he needed to find his own kyber crystal. Petro proved to be a natural leader when the group had to rescue Ahsoka from pirates, improvising a plan as they made their way to the compound. Master Yoda’s vision in season 6 implies that Petro was killed during Order 66, although this is not fully confirmed.

4

Zatt

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 5, episode 6 “The Gathering”

Zatt was a Nautolan Jedi youngling who attended the Gathering alongside his friends. Despite being a tech genius, Zatt was too reliant on scanners instead of trusting the Force, something he overcame to find his kyber crystal. His expertise proved invaluable during the youngling’s rescue of Ahsoka Tano and their escape from General Grievous. Although it is not confirmed, Zatt was most likely among the Jedi younglings killed during Order 66.

3

Tutso Mara

First Appearance: Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 5, episode 18 “The Jedi Who Knew Too Much”

Tutso Mara was one of the many Jedi killed in a terrorist bombing of the Temple and was laid to rest in a traditional Jedi funeral. Barriss Offee told Ahsoka Tano that she had been close to Tutso Mara, who had shown her how to hold a lightsaber correctly. His death was made more tragic when it was revealed that Barriss had planned the bombing as an attack on the Jedi’s role in the Clone Wars. Tutso Mara later appeared in a short story called “A Jedi’s Duty” by Karen Strong, part of the anthology Stories of Jedi and Sith.

Tiplar was a Mikkian Jedi Master and the twin sister of fellow Jedi Master Tiplee. She fought alongside her sister and Anakin Skywalker against Admiral Trench during the Battle of Ringo Vinda, where they nearly succeeded against the battle droids. However, clone trooper Tup’s inhibitor chip malfunctioned and caused him to execute Order 66 prematurely, shooting Tiplar in the head. This led to an investigation that nearly exposed Palpatine’s plan to eliminate the Jedi Order, but the Sith Lord eventually covered his tracks.
