Sia-Lan Wezz

"It is you who will die!"

- Sia-Lan Wezz to Darth Vader

Sia-Lan Wezz (47 BBY&mdash;19 BBY) was the Jedi Padawan of Master Lo-Jad. She wielded a pink lightsaber.

She was temporarily sent to Naboo by her master to learn at the Royal House of Learning in Theed. At the age of 15, she played a minor role in defending Naboo from Trade Federation forces in 32 BBY.

As a Jedi Knight, she survived Order 66 and the initial Jedi Purge, and a month later joined seven other Jedi in the Conclave on Kessel. However she and the others were betrayed by Shadday Potkin's arrogance, who had lead Darth Vader into her "ambush". Sia-Lan Wezz was the first to attack Vader, charging toward him with her lightsaber poised high. She was no match for the Dark Lord of the Sith though, who easily extended his lightsaber through her chest, and sliced off her hand before her dead body hit the floor.

Strangely, Sia-Lan Wezz, along with Dorn Tavers, were reported to have joined the Rebel Alliance under the banner "Remember Alderaan."

Reports also indicated that Wezz killed by High Inquisitor Volytar during the Battle of Skorrupon, defending Skorrupon's people from being taken over by Imperial forces.

Behind the scenes
Sia-Lan Wezz's death during the Battle of Skorrupon (just after the Battle of Yavin) was established in Galactic Campaign Guide. Later however, Star Wars: Purge established that she was killed by Darth Vader shortly after the formation of the Galactic Empire. Many fan explanations have arisen from this discrepancy, though no official retcon has been established as yet. Leland Chee has stated the possiblity that Galactic Campaign Guide was only providing a hypothetical situation regarding the Skorrupon death, and might get noted in the Holocron Continuity Database as "One report indicated that Sia-Lan Wezz had been lost at the Battle of Skorrupon". In any case, it appears that her death at the hands of Darth Vader in Star Wars: Purge is her "official" death, though future material might prove otherwise.
