Farzala Tarabal

Farzala Tarabal was a Zygerrian male Jedi Knight of the Jedi Order during the High Republic Era. Stationed aboard the academic cruiser Star Hopper under the training of Jedi Masters Obratuk Glii, Yoda, and Torban Buck, Tarabal was a friend of fellow Padawans Qort and Lula Talisola, the latter of whom often looked out for them when they caused mischief.

Tarabal was aboard the Star Hopper when the cruiser raced to rescue the Trymant system from fallout of the Great Hyperspace Disaster and a subsequent attack from Nihil marauders. The Jedi managed to drive back the Nihil until the arrival of Galactic Republic could arrive, rescuing the Force-sensitive resident Zeen Mrala and returning to the Starlight Beacon space station.

Tarabal and his fellow Padawans followed a runaway Mrala to the Bright Jewel system, where they fought the Nihil once more and defended the Junk Mavens from the raiders. After this, Tarabal and Qort joined the Vessel crew on a diplomatic mission to Bilbousa, the capital of Nal Hutta. There, he was captured due to a sabotage on the Vessel, but subsequently escaped and recruited Ishnar Ti-Kharatal to join him. In his master Obratuk Glii's place, Tarabal served as the primary diplomat on the mission.

After reuniting with his friends on Starlight Beacon, the Star Hopper departed for the temple on Takodana to aid Sav Malagán in her defense against the Nihil. During preparations, Nihil double agents planted thermal detonators and blew up the temple. A newly maskless Qort took care of the Nihil, and Farzala and his friends welcomed their changed friend with a hug.
