B'ink Utrila

B'ink Utrila was a female lethan Twi'lek who served as an instructor and Master in the Jedi Order. During the Clone Wars, she was the master of the Human Padawan Rennax Omani, who accompanied her and a squad of clone troopers to the moon Draay 2. There, Utrila and her force were to retrieve the ancient Sith artifact the Gauntlet of Kressh the Younger, lest it fall into the hands of Confederacy of Independent Systems leader Count Dooku. Although the Jedi and clones were able to locate the Gauntlet, Utrila was beset by the dark side of the Force upon touching it, and elected to try and leave it on the moon protected. The Republic force was later set upon by the Mandalorian Death Watch led by Pre Vizsla—in the ensuing engagement, the Jedi Temple that stored the Gauntlet was destroyed, which left Utrila satisfied that the device could not be retrieved. As a result of the mission however, Omani elected to leave the Jedi Order.

In 19 BBY, the Galactic Republic's capital, Coruscant, was attacked by the forces of General Grievous, who attempted to abduct Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Appointed by Master Yoda to assist, Utrila joined Roth-Del Masona, Roron Corobb, Stass Allie, Shaak Ti and Foul Moudama in ferrying Palpatine to a secure bunker, which was nonetheless breached by Grievous and his forces. Although Utrila and her fellow Jedi endeavored to stop Grievous in his tracks, the droid general proved too formidable, and managed to defeat and kill Masona, Corobb, and Moudama in short order. Although Utrila was able to inflict superficial damage on her opponent, Grievous, wielding four lightsabers at once, proved too formidable, and ended Utrila's life by striking her through the heart.
