Maks Leem

Maks Leem was a female Gran Jedi Master during the Clone Wars. She wielded a sky-blue lightsaber.

Biography
Maks trained three Padawans: Rees Alrix, Eremin Tarn and Whie Malreaux. Maks and Whie helped Jai Maruk and Tallisibeth Enwandung-Esterhazy smuggle Yoda off Coruscant to take him to Vjun for a rendezvous with Count Dooku. While traveling to Vjun, the Jedi were attacked on Phindar Station by a Separatist ambush, in which Maks and Jai were murdered by the Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress and her assassin droids.

During that final battle, Jai Maruk proved himself a capable fighter, but it was Maks' calm voice that prevented him from giving into hate and falling to the dark side just prior to death.

Behind the scenes
In the comic Star Wars: General Grievous 1, an unnamed Gran Council member is seen. This character is never seen again. Note that Dark Rendezvous takes place six months after this comic. Leem's death in the book would explain the disappearance of the Gran from the Council, suggesting the two characters are the same.
