Ry-Gaul

"No one orders the Jedi. We accept requests. Then we decide."

- Ry-Gaul

Ry-Gaul was a male Human Jedi Master during the twilight years of the Galactic Republic. He wielded a silver single-bladed lightsaber and trained Tru Veld as his Padawan. During the Clone Wars, Ry-Gaul fought alongside other Jedi as a Senior General, and survived Order 66. He later trained Lune Oddo Divinian in the ways of the Force.

Biography
Ry-Gaul was known as a tall, dignified, and quiet man who seldom spoke. However, when he did speak, it was usually worth listening to, for his wisdom and experience made him widely respected. He was a powerful lightsaber combatant, but often prevented fights through simple intimidation. He and Tru accompanied Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker on many missions prior to the Clone Wars, including a dangerous mission on Korriban. In the Clone Wars, he commanded the 2nd Sector Army.

In the last months of the Clone Wars, Master Yoda sent Ry-Gaul on a highly secret mission to the Outer Rim Territories. He left his former Padawan behind at the Jedi Temple, thinking that he would be safe there. When the Great Jedi Purge began, Tru was killed at the Temple while Ry-Gaul was still undercover. He was helped by two scientists, Tobin Gantor and Linna Naltree, who disappeared because they were captured by the Galactic Empire. His search for them led him to the Coruscant Underworld where he met the former Jedi Fy-Tor-Ana, now known as Solace.

Ry-Gaul died on the Jedi's hidden asteroid when Darth Vader discovered its location and had it destroyed by the Empire's new superweapon.
