Shadday Potkin/Legends

Shadday (– 19 BBY) was a Human female Jedi Master during the Clone Wars and a survivor of Order 66.

Biography
Shortly after the execution of Order 66 and the establishment of the Galactic Empire, Shadday joined forces with several other Jedi survivors, including Bultar Swan. She called for a secret meeting of surviving Jedi on the planet Kessel, ostensibly to discuss the future of the Jedi Order.

Secretly, however, she had another plan. She had grown disillusioned with what she saw as Jedi inaction, preferring to act rather than meditate and reflect. Through her contacts she leaked information to the Empire on the Jedi meeting, including the lie that Obi-Wan Kenobi was amongst them. Knowing that Darth Vader was obsessed with tracking Kenobi down, although not knowing the reason, she planned to ambush him with the full force of the Jedi, removing Palpatine's greatest weapon and striking fear into the Empire.

Eight Jedi in all were present in the abandoned mine when Vader arrived. Shadday believed herself prepared to fight the Sith, having acquired a cortosis sword to deactivate Vader's lightsaber. At first, her attack seemed successful. However, robbed of his lightsaber, Vader instead choked the life out of her.

Shadday's plan to draw out the Sith to their doom, like Atris' 4000 years before, had failed.
