Eeth Koth/Legends

Eeth Koth (c. 100 BBY – 22 BBY) was a Zabrak Jedi Master, and member of the Jedi High Council present when Qui-Gon Jinn presented Anakin Skywalker to the Council.

Biography
Eeth Koth was born in the slums of Nar Shaddaa and orphaned at a young age. The Jedi were his saviours, and, as a result, he dedicated himself totally to the order. Although Master Koth was four years old at the time, the Jedi felt he was too strong to leave behind. Eeth was well-respected by his peers, and even participated in the Concordance of Fealty with fellow Master Mace Windu.Koth also trained the legendary Jedi Sharad "Howlrunner" Hett and fought in the early engagements of the Clone Wars.

Eeth Koth perished during the Battle of Geonosis when his Republic Gunship exploded under Separatist fire. His vacant place on the Council was eventually filled by his fellow Zabrak Jedi, Agen Kolar.

Behind the scenes
In the initial development of the character, Eeth Koth was to be the leader of the Jedi Council.

Eeth Koth was originally slated to return for Attack of the Clones, but when the original actor, Hassani Shapi, was unavailable for filming, Tux Akindoyeni was brought in to play the part. However, Tux's appearance was noticably different from Hassani's version, and so Tux's Eeth Koth became an entirely new character: Agen Kolar. Kolar replaces Koth on the Jedi Council in Revenge of the Sith.
