Obba

Obba was a Jedi Master of the Jedi Order who lived during the Golden Age of the Old Republic. A contemporary of Worror Dowmat and Valenthyne Farfalla, who he served together as Padawans in the Army of Light during the New Sith Wars. After surviving the conflict, Obba was appointed to the Council of First Knowledge, and spent many years searching for and recovering Sith artifacts and talismans. In 990 BBY, he was a member of the team sent to capture the last Sith Lord on Ambria. Under the command of Master Tho'natu, the team traveled to Ambria, where they were attacked by a deranged Darovit, driven mad by the Sith sorcery of his cousin Darth Zannah. Assuming him to be the Sith Lord, Tho'natu struck down Darovit, and the Jedi returned to Coruscant, bringing with them the lightsaber hilts of the five Jedi recently killed in the confrontation with Zannah and Darth Bane on Tython.

During his time with the Order Obba also trained two Padawans, Medd Tandar and Set Harth, who aided him in his duties for the Council of First Knowledge. However, Harth was corrupted by the Sith artifacts he discovered during his travels and rejected the ways of the Jedi Order, becoming a Dark Jedi. He kept many of the artifacts he found for himself before leaving the Jedi and continuing to search for additional, similar relics to add to his collection. Tandar, meanwhile, was later killed by the Huntress on Doan during her assassination of Gelba, the leader of the planet's mining caste during his search for a cache of long-buried Sith artifacts and talismans. After Tandar's death, Princess Serra of Doan met with Obba to assure him that the assassination had not been ordered by the Doan Royal House.
