Ma'kis'shaalas/Legends

"[Killing the Sith is] difficult to do at best, I think. Many guards this new Emperor has. Can it be done? I don't know. Should it be tried? Yes!"

- Ma'kis'shaalas

Ma'kis'shaalas, nicknamed Ma'kis, was a Jedi Master and Senior General during the Clone Wars.

Biography
A Kajain'sa'Nikto male from Kintan, he was a former Morgukai who left his order when he realized his Force-sensitivity. He entered the Jedi Order at an age older than usually allowed, and only Yoda and Mace Windu knew of his past. He became a brutal and effective combatant, known for his blind adherence to the Jedi Code and his usually critical point of view towards the Republic. The Morgukai Tsyr, Ma'kis'shaalas's former best friend, viewed him as a traitor to the Morgukai and engaged him in a duel on Kintan that left both of them scarred, both emotionally and physically.



Ma'kis'shaalas survived the execution of Order 66. He was one of the seven Jedi who met with Jedi Master Shadday Potkin on Kessel shortly after the foundation of the Galactic Empire to plan their next course of action. He advocated attacking the Sith, and Darth Vader's arrival on Kessel hastened this plan. However, Ma'kis'shaalas was quickly struck down and killed by Vader.
