"Master Sev, come in. Something &hellip; horrible has happened.''" "''You've been betrayed. You're one of us now, Jedi&mdash;an unwanted outcast."

- Joc Sah and Gaan

Joc Sah was a Human male Jedi Padawan who served as a commander during the Clone Wars. During the war, he was apprenticed to the Jedi Master Sev. In the war's final year, Sah and his Master were dispatched to the Outer Rim planet Ragmar V, which was considered to be a vital staging world for a planned assault on a Separatist base. In his first solitary mission, Sah traveled to the planet's surface along with a squad of clone troopers aiming to secure an outpost. After Sah and his troops disembarked their gunship, the vessel was destroyed by a rocket coming from the nearby settlement. As Sah and his soldiers confronted the village's leader, Gaan, and his group of outcasts, Clone Sergeant Remy was commanded by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to execute Order 66, an order that branded the Jedi Knights to be traitors to the Republic. Sah was immediately attacked by Remy and the members of the squad, and Sah temporarily joined forces with Gaan and eliminated the troopers. When Sah realized that he had been betrayed by the Republic, he allied with Gaan and his fellow pariahs in order to combat the detachment of clones that were sent to ensure Sah's demise.

- Sah and Sev discuss the mission to Ragmar V

Joc Sah, a Human male, was born during the final decades of the Galactic Republic. He was trained in the ways of the Force by the Jedi Order, and as a Padawan, he eventually came under the tutelage of the Weequay Jedi Master Sev. When the Clone Wars were initiated in 22 BBY, Sah became a commander in the Grand Army of the Republic, helping to lead the clone forces alongside his Master. In 19 BBY, Sah and Sev traveled to Ragmar V, a planet in the Outer Rim Territories which was viewed to be an essential staging world for a planned Republic assault on a Separatist base. Sah was instructed by Sev to take a squad of clones, land on the planet's surface, and secure a outpost. Sah, accompanied by Clone Sergeant Remy and other troopers, entered Ragmar V's atmosphere aboard a LAAT/i gunship. He conversed with Sev, stating that he had hoped for a more active mission for his first task on his own; however, Sev warned the Padawan to stay alert, saying that on occasion the most minor fights became the largest battles.

After landing on a cliff and disembarking, Sah was informed by Remy of a settlement a few clicks from their location. However, the ship was destroyed by a rocket fired from the village, and Sah and his troops descended from the cliff in order to confront the villagers. As they approached the town, Sah ordered Remy to split the soldiers and secure the flanks while he spoke with the settlement's leader, Gaan. The leader stated that the Republic was not wanted on the planet, and Sah replied that there was an assault ship that countered Gaan's argument. As the two prepared for battle, Remy received a directive from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine commanding him to execute Order 66, which labeled the Jedi Knights to be traitors to the Republic. Sah was attacked by Remy and the clones, and he ordered the clones to cease firing as he took cover in a nearby building. Sah was soon joined by Gaan, who was also attacked by the clones, and the Padawan attempted to reach Sev, who had been executed, over his comlink. When Gaan asked Sah to temporarily ally with him in order to eliminate the clones, Sah accepted and helped him to defeat the soldiers.

After defeating the troops, Sah openly questioned why the clones had attacked him and tried once more to reach Sev over his comlink. Gaan replied that he had been betrayed and that he was now in Gaan's and his group's position of being an outcast. Sah accepted Gaan's offer of friendship, warning him that the clones would send more troops against the settlement. When a detachment of troopers landed on the surface to ensure Sah's death, the Padawan and Gaan engaged the soldiers in battle. Both Sah and Gaan managed to survive and staged a number of hit-and-run attacks against the stormtroopers of the new Galactic Empire.
