Memit Nadill

"But if the Force is in all things, it is never too late."

- Memit Nadill

Memit Nadill was a Jedi Master who served as Empress Teta's most trusted adviser during the series of unification wars that brought together the seven planets of the Koros system. Nadill was a regal green skinned humanoid, with many small tales sprouting from the back of his head. In 5,000 BBY, alongside fellow Jedi Odan-Urr, Memit Nadill fought in the Great Hyperspace War, helping to repel the Sith Empire during the Invasion of Coruscant. A peaceful Jedi, Nadill hoped never to need his lightsaber again after the war, yet he was extremely skillful with his weapon when it was needed of him.

Unification Wars
"Greetings Odan-Urr--I am Memit Nadill, Empress Teta's advisor."

- Memit Nadill upon meeting Odan-Urr

In 5,000 BBY, near the close of the unification wars, Memit Nadill met Draethos Jedi Knight Odan-Urr on Cinnagar. Odan-Urr had been sent to Cinnagar by his master, a Celegian named Ooroo, to the Koros system to try and bring peace to Kirrek, which was ravaged in war. It was the first such assignment for Odan-Urr, who was more of a scholar than a warrior. Nadill brought Odan-Urr forward to Empress Teta&mdash;Odan-Urr told them of an anceint force ability, known as battle meditation. As they traveled to Kirrek, the young Draethos taught Nadill the anceint power, which drained the morale of the enemy while boosting the morale of allies.

Nadill quickly mastered battle meditation, and alongside Odan-Urr, helped defeat the pirates on Kirrek. However, the victory was not without its losses&mdash;Odan-Urr was particularly disturbed by the destruction of a supply ship, which had plummeted into Kirrek's surface. Upon returning to Koros Major, the two Jedi were hailed as heroes, along with Empress Teta. Nadill told the Empress that now that all the planets had been united, Koros would be among the richest systems in the Galaxy.

Odan Urr's Vision
"I trust the knowledge of my brother Jedi, empress. Though it may be difficult to interpret at times, the Force does not lie."

Later, on Koros Major, Nadill and Odan-Urr rescued two siblings, who had been cornered by assassins. Odan-Urr, unused to such situations, lashed out at an assassin with his ancient lightsaber, killing him, while Nadill sought a more peaceful resolution. That night, Odan-Urr had a nightmarish vision of the Sith Lord Marka Ragnos' death on Korriban, and the war it would bring. The young Jedi Knight sought Memit Nadill to help him interpret the dream. Nadill trusted his companion's judgment, and asked Teta to bring it up with the senate on her next visit to Coruscant.

Nadill and Odan-Urr accompanied Teta to the capital&mdash;they sat on either side of her as she addressed the senate. However, the senate did not take the Empress seriously, believing Odan-Urr's vision to have simply been a dream. However, the two Jedi still had the support of Empress Teta, who vowed to pledge her military forces against any Sith attack.

Soon after their return from Coruscant, Nadill brought Odan-Urr to Empress Teta's chambers, where Urr's master Ooroo was awaiting his arrival. Ooroo had heard of his apprentice's visions, and had come to Koros Major to speak with Nadill and Odan-Urr. The wise Celegian warned them that a full scale war would devastate the Republic, and cross the fabrics of hyperspace. Teta then showed the three Jedi her vast army, vowing never to let her system fall to any outsiders.

Nadill was with Odan-Urr in Teta's chambers when a young woman burst through the doors. Jori Daragon had been imprisoned for various crime, but she had managed to escape. As the empress had her guards take Daragon, she told them that she had seen the Sith Empire, and that the Republic was in danger. Nadill believed Jori Daragon&mdash;this evidence would surely convince the Jedi Order of the danger they were in.

Battle of Coruscant
"Empress Teta has received a dire warning--the Sith are preparing to attack! I am hear to sound the warning to all who will hear."

- Memit Nadill to his fellow Jedi on Coruscant.

Memit Nadill went to Coruscant to rally support from his fellow Jedi, however, he was too late. Just as he met with two Jedi, Naga Sadow's fleet laid siege to Coruscant, sending pods full of Sith warriors down onto the capital's streets. Nadill fought alongside several other Jedi Knights, such as Sonam-Ha'ar and Tuknatan, using his primitive blue lightsaber against Sadow's vast army of Sith warriors.

As Nadill fought against the seemingly endless Sith force, something unexpected happened. Many of the Sith soldiers simply vanished. Realizing many of their enemies were illusory men conjured by Sith magic, the Jedi launched a counter attack at their confused foes, turning the tide of the battle. Nadill fought with the Force, eliminating the Sith threat from Coruscant. With much of the Sith wiped out, the Jedi let the survivors flee back to the Sith empire.

Victory
"I will disconnect my lightsaber from its powerpack and hope I never need it in battle again."

- Memit Nadill after the Battle of Coruscant

The Sith had also been defeated on Kirrek by Odan-Urr and Ooroo, however at the expense of the Celegian Master's life. On Coruscant, Memit Nadill and his fellow Jedi were involved in a victory celebration outside the senate hall. Nadill disconnected his lightsaber from its power pack, hoping never to have to use it again.

Nadill returned to Koros Major, happy to see that Teta and Odan-Urr had fared as well as he had. The empress was disheartened at the damage the war had caused, but Nadill optimistically reassured her that everything could be repaired.

Physical appearance
Memit Nadill was a regal, green-skinned humanoid with several small tails sprouting from the back of his head. His chin was strong, and was dominated by a large, bony curl at the end. A number of short horns studded his skull as well as several short horns that studded his head.



Personality and traits
Memit Nadill was a wise and experienced Jedi, who was Teta's adviser during the bloody unification wars. Nadill preferred peaceful resolutions to problems, though he was extremely skilled with his blue lightsaber when it was needed of him. The green skinned alien put his full trust in fellow Jedi Odan-Urr, and did he best to ensure the senate listened. After the Great Hyperspace War, Nadill powered down his lightsaber, vowing that he would never reignite it. Nadill was also very kind, and often wore a smile on his face.
