Cei Vookto

Cei Vookto was a Duros male Jedi Master who served the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. He trained two Padawans, including the Human Dama Montalvo. Three months into the war, Vookto was dispatched to the planet Lianna to defend a Sienar Fleet Systems starfighter facility from the Separatists. He was slain during the ensuing battle when he sacrificed himself so that the soldiers under his command could survive a Separatist attack. After the Republic won the battle, Vookto's body was given a funeral pyre on Lianna, which was attended by Montalvo and several Jedi Masters, including Yoda and Mace Windu.
