Massacre on Doan

This massacre took place in 980 BBY on the planet Doan. Tensions between the Doan Royal House and the lower-case miners rose, and after the accidental assassination of Prince Gerran, Gerran's wife, Serra, became depressed. Serra's bodyguard, Lucia, decided to exact revenge of Gerran's killers and hired an assassin, the Huntress, to kill them. The Huntress attacked Gelba, the miners' representative, assassinating her and going on to kill all the miners that were accompanying her, as well as Jedi Master Medd Tandar, who had been sent to mediate the situation between the Doan Royal house and the miners.

Prelude
Around the time following the New Sith Wars, the Doan Royal House came into conflict with the lower-class miners of the planet Doan. Gelba, a leader of the miners, ordered the capture of the Doan Prince, Gerran. However, when they tried to force his airspeeder into an emergency landing, they accidentally killed him, sending his wife, Princess Serra, into a depression. Lucia, Serra's bodyguard and a member of the Doan Royal Guard, hoped to remedy Serra of this depression by getting revenge on those who had caused Gerran's death.

Lucia traveled to the space station Paradise, where she found the Iktotchi assassin known as the Huntress and hired her to assassinate Gelba. Meanwhile, the miners contacted the Jedi Order on Coruscant and convinced them to send a Jedi to help mediate the situation on Doan. Cerean Jedi Knight Medd Tandar was sent to Doan and met with Gelba and five other miners to discuss negotiations.

The massacre
During Tandar's meeting with Gelba, they were suddenly ambushed by the Huntress. The Iktotchi shot and killed Gelba instantly before quickly dispatching the other miners, as well. Using her own Force powers, she interfered with Tandar's ability to touch the Force. She fired on him with her blasters and Tandar barely was able to dodge them. Still, Tandar managed to call her blasters to him with the Force. To Tandar's surprise, she remained calm, and he offered her a fair trial if she surrendered. However, she quickly retreated; Tandar saw his mistake too late as he realized she had overloaded the weapons' power cells. They exploded, overwhleming his feeble attempt at a shield and killing the Jedi Master.
