Barkov

Canon Linked from 5 articles

Barkov was a Lasat member of the Path of the Open Hand cult and its elite subgroup, the Children of the Open Hand. In 382 BBY, during the Battle of Jedha, he and the rest of the Children, under the leadership of Werth Plouth, the Herald of the Open Hand, raided many locations in the Holy City in search of the Rod of Daybreak, a Force artifact that could control the Nameless creatures. They eventually located it in a vault underneath the fallen Final Protector Jedi statue but were discovered by the Jedi Knight Vildar Mac and the thief Tey Sirrek. Plouth ordered Barkov to stop the attackers alongside fellow member of the Children Shea Ganandra, but Sirrek defeated the two using the Hand of Siberus, a Sith gauntlet.
