Unidentified Jedi (Battle of Alderaan)

A Human female was a member of the Jedi Order during the time of the Great Galactic War, which raged from 3,681 BBY to 3,653 BBY. She took a frontline role in supporting the Galactic Republic in the war against the Sith Empire. At the height of the war, the Sith Lord Darth Malgus led a surprise attack on the planet of Alderaan, crushing Republic defenses with a massive invasion force. The female Jedi joined the Republic Army's special forces unit Havoc Squad in leading a counterattack against the Sith.

As the invasion force moved through the Alderaanian forests, Havoc Squad launched an ambush and engaged Darth Malgus directly. Despite the element of surprise, the Republic forces took many casualties and were almost overwhelmed by the superior number of the Sith force before the female Jedi joined the battle. As the Republic forces regained their momentum, she attacked Darth Malgus, displaying her prowess with a double-bladed lightsaber as well as with multiple Force powers. With great difficulty and the aid of the Havoc Squad commander she was able to defeat Darth Malgus and secure a victory for the Republic.

Biography
During the height of the Great Galactic War a Jedi was present on Alderaan shortly after the surprise Sith assault on the planet led by the newly promoted Darth Malgus. The Sith invasion force quickly devastated the Republic forces and took the royal family hostage. Along with a special forces unit of the Republic Army, the Jedi planned a counterattack halt the Sith advance. As Darth Malgus led his forces through the forests surrounding Alderaan's capital, the Republic forces sprang their ambush.

The commander of Havoc Squad led the initial attack which inflicted numerous casualties on the Sith and managed to slightly injure the Sith Lord. The Sith soon recovered however, and Darth Malgus began to systematically execute the Republic troopers. At this point the female Jedi joined the fray, narrowly saving the Havoc Squad commander from execution by slaying his captors. She quickly turned the tide of the battle, eliminating multiple Sith Warriors and battle droids before engaging Malgus. Her timely arrival gave the remaining Republic forces a chance to regroup and renew their effort against the Sith. Using a double-bladed lightsaber and utilizing her skill in various Force powers, the Jedi was able to duel Malgus evenly for a time, using her double-bladed weapon and aggressive attacks to great effect against the Sith Lord's single lightsaber. When Malgus proved to be physically stronger than the Jedi and began to press his assault, she used a variety of acrobatics and even pulled a tree down with the Force in an attempt to keep the Sith Lord off-balance. Despite her fast-paced assault and improvised tactics, Malgus eventually gained the advantage and pushed her against a tree. The Jedi narrowly escaped the next attack by jumping behind Malgus, but he predicted her move and destroyed her weapon, disarming her.

In desperation the Jedi demonstrated her ability to absorb energy by stopping a finishing blow from Malgus with her bare hand. The Havoc Squad commander soon came to her aid, knocking the Sith Lord away and setting off a grenade, causing significant injury both to himself and Malgus. Seizing the opportunity, the Jedi pinned Malgus to a boulder with the Force and dispatched him with a powerful Force Wave. By this point the other Sith forces had also been defeated by Havoc Squad, and the Jedi observed as the squad commander set off a flare signaling the Republic victory.

Personality and traits
The female Jedi demonstrated significant bravery and boldness over the course of the battle, leaping directly into combat and fighting despite being at a numerical disadvantage. Her initiative enabled her to take out multiple Sith combatants before challenging Darth Malgus himself, further displaying her courage in her willingness to duel a Sith Lord. She also exhibited a sense of awareness of her surroundings and utilized the environment to her advantage in combat, at one point felling a tree.

Powers and abilities
The Jedi was skilled in the use of a double-bladed lightsaber, defeating many Sith Warriors and battle droids within seconds of her arrival in the battle. She even fought Darth Malgus for a time and was able to duel evenly with the Sith Lord before gradually being overwhelmed and disarmed. The Jedi was also skilled in a rare Force power known as Force absorb, which she used to absorb the blade of Malgus' lightsaber and avoid a killing blow.

The Jedi also displayed her prowess with the Force and used multiple Force powers during the battle. She demonstrated the ability to hurl powerful blasts of energy. Her skill with telekinesis was strong enough to bring down a large tree and pin Darth Malgus to a boulder. Additionally she dispatched Malgus with a powerful display of telekinesis which possessed enough strength to completely shatter the cliff face to which the Sith Lord was pinned.
