Khaat Qiyn

"Careful, my young padawan. The shadows hold great rage... constrainted, but so deep it might swallow you whole."

- Khaat Qiyn

Khaat Qiyn was a female human Jedi who served in the Jedi Order in the waning years of the Galactic Republic. She apprenticed a young human male, and together fought in the Battle of Geonosis as members of the Jedi assault team. She frequently used Form V of lightsaber combat.

A looming presence
"Steady yourself. Trust in the force, always. These games... distractions... could cause your undoing my apprentice."

- Khaat Qiyn

Prior to the Invasion of Naboo, Khaat Qiyn and her apprentice were taking a walk through the Coruscant Underworld. Unbeknownst to them, the Sith apprentice Darth Maul was lurking in the shadows, watching them in the shadows. As they traversed through the crowds of alien species, Qiyn noted to her padawan that she felt someone's presence watching them, to which he replied that he could sense it too, and that he felt cold. The female Jedi knight then went on to warn her young padawan of how shadows hold great rage, so much so that it could metaphorically swallow you whole. Jumping to conclusions, the weary padawan suggested that their senses could be betraying them, as he was unable to see anything. Keeping cool and collected, Khaat Qiyn told him to remain steady, and to always trust in the force, while cautioning that such distractions could cause his undoing.

The Battle of Geonosis
By 22 BBY, tensions between the Galactic Republic and a rising faction known as the Confederacy of Independent Systems were growing at an alarming rate. After senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo narrowly survived multiple assassination attempts, it was discovered that the bounty hunter Jango Fett was behind it. Jedi Master Obi Wan Kenobi subsequently followed the Mandalorian to the barren world of Geonosis, discovering that the Separatists had been developing their own droid army, and contacted the Jedi Temple about his findings. Moments after sending a hologram, the Jedi was discovered and captured. Mace Windu then made the decision to assemble a Jedi assault team, made up of the 200 available Jedi to crush the droid army the Separatists had been creating, and to rescue Obi Wan. Khaat Qiyn, as well as her apprentice, were two of the many Jedi sent out to Geonosis, as part of the Jedi assault team. Upon arriving on Geonosis, Khaat Qiyn and the Jedi infiltrated the arena, and hid until the time was right. After Windu revealed himself to Count Dooku, the leader of the Separatists, they deployed their newfound droid army, and so the Jedi revealed themselves. With thousands of droids in front of them, Qiyn and the other Jedi ignited their lightsabers, running toward them and began cutting them down one by one. While valiantly fighting many Separatist droids, Khaat Qiyn's fate after the battle is unknown.
