Minch

Minch was a Jedi Knight in 700 BBY. He would eventually fight and kill a Dark Jedi in a cave on Dagobah. He was of the same species of the famous Jedi Masters Vandar Tokare, Yoda and Yaddle.

Behind the scenes

 * Minch was found in some of the original drafts of The Empire Strikes Back as Yoda's first name.
 * "Minch" is similar to the Yiddish word "mensch," meaning a kind soul.
 * The Dark Horse Comics website has stated that this character is Yoda, but he is only referred to as Minch in the story. Leland Chee, when asked about the canonicity of Heart of Darkness, stated that "Yoda never went to Dagobah prior to ROTS... [a]nd Minch is not part of Yoda's name."
