Jak'zin

Jak'zin was a Togorian Jedi who served the Jedi Order. By 42 BBY, while a Jedi Initiate on the planet Coruscant, he was friends with fellow initiates Gheyr and Krrsish, a Trandoshan and a Wookiee respectively. At the Jedi Temple, he met Jedi Masters Yoda and Dooku. During his training, Jak'zin was sent, along with the Tibidee Clan to which he belonged, to the astronomical object Corvair II to undergo a trial. While there, Gheyr and Krrsish dueled each other, and Jak'zin tried to intervene, resulting in him getting knocked out by the Wookiee.

Jak'zin eventually became a Jedi Knight. In 26 BBY, the Togorian traveled to the planet Sullust to investigate the Kaldana Syndicate, a criminal organization that had made inroads on the world. While on Sullust, he crossed paths with Dooku, who had previously left the Jedi Order. Dooku, secretly a Sith Lord, gained Jak'zin's trust and offered to help him on his mission.

When the duo located the Kaldana Syndicate, the organization's guards surrounded them, and Dooku used his red lightsaber to fight them. Although surprised by the color of Dooku's lightsaber—which was that of a Sith—Jak'zin fought by his side against the criminals. After surviving the fight, the Togorian still felt distrustful of Dooku and his red-colored weapon. At that point, Dooku revealed his true allegiance and used the Force to manipulate a blaster, fatally shooting Jak'zin in the back.
