Yaddle

Yaddle was a Force-sensitive female being of the same species as Grand Master Yoda and Din Grogu. She was a Jedi Master and was in charge of Jedi Initiates during the High Republic Era. During this period, in 382 BBY, Yaddle and an initiate she was tutoring at the time named Cippa Tarko fought against the Path of the Open Hand, a cult that was hateful of the Jedi and any who used the Force, in the devastating battle on Dalna known as the Night of Sorrow.

During the last years of the Galactic Republic, Yaddle was a member of the Jedi High Council. She trained a Thisspiasian Padawan, Oppo Rancisis, who eventually joined Yaddle on the High Council by the time of the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY. That year, Qui-Gon Jinn brought the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant where he met Yaddle and the Jedi elders. Following the Battle of Naboo, Yaddle pursued fellow Jedi Master Dooku after observing suspicious behavior on his part. She ended up encountering the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious, who ordered the Jedi Master to kill his colleague. Yaddle was subsequently defeated and killed by Dooku, the final step on his path to the dark side of the Force.

In 14 BBY, Yaddle was remembered and mentioned by name by the Latero pilot Greez Dritus, who speculated on her fate during the Great Jedi Purge with his Jedi associates, unaware of Yaddle's actual deathdate. In 12 BBY, the Sith Lord Darth Vader encountered apparitions of several Jedi, including Yaddle, while experiencing a series of Force visions. In 9 BBY, Jedi Knight Cal Kestis discussed Master Yaddle with Jedi Master Eno Cordova, Cordova having once known her. Kestis mentioned that his master Jaro Tapal had been the Padawan of Yaddle. In 3 ABY, Yoda had a vision in the Cave of Evil in which he learned that Dooku had killed Yaddle.
