Adi Gallia/Legends

A beautiful Jedi Master born on Coruscant to diplomats from Corellia, Adi Gallia was a member of the Jedi Council during the Battle of Naboo, as well as during the Battle of Geonosis ten years later.

A skilled pilot, she was among those who tested the new Jedi Starfighter and flew in air support above Geonosis along with her former padawan, Siri Tachi. Gallia was also a very skillful warrior with her lightsaber, which she wielded with an unorthodox reverse one-handed grip. While on missions for the Jedi Council, Gallia went under the callsign "Shooting Star".

Her skills as a Jedi were also considerable, but her greatest attributes were her intuition and research skills. She was the daughter of a high ranking Corellian diplomat, which gave her a good understanding of the complexities of the Republic's politics.

It was she that first heard of the Trade Federation's suspicious movements in the outlying regions through her carefully cultivated network of contacts. She informed Supreme Chancellor Valorum (who she had close ties to) of her findings, and Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, were sent to deal with the blockade around Naboo.

Adi Gallia had a cousin, Stass Allie, who is similar in dress and appearance.

Adi confronted General Grievous while directing her troops with Mace Windu on Boz Pity. Grievous quickly killed her, grabbing her throat with an extra arm and stabbing her in the chest. Adi's killing led to a confrontation between Grievous and Windu, during which Mace Windu used the Force to slam Grievous' bodyplates. One of them got stuck in his lungs, aggravating Greivous' already terrible hacking cough.

Behind the Scenes
Adi Gallia is played by the model Gin Clarke, who was made famous for her French work. "Gallia" is the Latin name for France.
