Tutso Mara

Tutso Mara was a Jedi Knight who, at the time of the Clone Wars, worked in service to the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic. During his studies as a Jedi, Mara became friends with fellow student Barriss Offee, whom he aided in lightsaber combat training. In 19.1 BBY, after being elevated to Jedi Knighthood, Mara perished with other Jedi and Republic clone troopers in a bombing of the Jedi Temple's hangar, which Offee engineered in protest of the Jedi Order's increasingly militant role in leading the Grand Army of the Republic into warfare. Mara and the five other Jedi victims were memorialized in a ceremony at the Temple, which Grand Master Yoda oversaw, and their bodies were then laid to rest.
