Agen Kolar

Agen Kolar was a Zabrak male Jedi Master who was known for his skill with a lightsaber and his willingness to use it. An accomplished swordsman who almost always took a blunt approach, Kolar spent many years traveling the Outer Rim Territories on missions. He was intensely loyal to the Jedi High Council and rarely doubted its wisdom or questioned its dictates. When the Clone Wars broke out, Kolar fought in the Battle of Geonosis, losing his Padawan, Tan Yuster. Kolar pushed forward, however, becoming an accomplished Jedi General and serving in such engagements as the recapture of Brentaal.

Kolar was also sent on more personal missions, such as his attempt to arrest the wayward Jedi Master Quinlan Vos—though unknown to Kolar, Vos was in fact a double agent, and the failed arrest was meant to give him credibility as he attempted to penetrate Count Dooku's circle of Dark Acolytes—and the show of force against the Crimson Nova chapter of the Bounty Hunters' Guild when they began taking bounties on Jedi. He also became a member of the Jedi Council, taking on a leadership role in the war.

As the Clone Wars came to a close, Kolar was among the few Jedi Masters remaining on Coruscant. When General Grievous was tracked down and destroyed by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Kolar was among the Council members selected by Master Mace Windu to confront Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, whom the Jedi feared was under the sway of a Sith Lord, to lay down his emergency powers. Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker revealed that Palpatine was in fact the Sith Lord himself leading Kolar, Windu, and fellow Masters Saesee Tiin and Kit Fisto all traveled to arrest Palpatine. Kolar and Tiin were first to perish, launching the Great Jedi Purge and the Galactic Republic's transformation into the Galactic Empire.
