Coleman Trebor/Legends

Coleman Trebor was a male Vurk Jedi Master from Sembla. Due to Yarael Poof's death, Master Trebor was invited to a seat on the Jedi High Council.

Biography
Master Trebor considered himself to be more of a diplomat than a fighter, and was known for peacefully settling a number of interplanetary disputes. Though capable of aggressive negotiation, he preferred words over action.



Upon joining the Jedi Council, he tried to cooperate with the galactic media, something the Council usually refrained from doing. As one of the official spokesbeings for the Jedi Order, Trebor was revered for his wisdom. He mediated the debates over the taking of "Baby Ludi", and the introduction of Jedi TradeChips with HoloNet News reporters. Along with Saesee Tiin, he commanded some Antarian Rangers and Jedi during the Confederacy's uprising on Antar 4.

Trebor shared a close friendship with a Human female Padawan named Jyl Somtay, and they had many insightful conversations.

Like many of his peers from the High Council, Master Trebor was part of the Jedi task force sent to Geonosis to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Padmé Amidala. In unparalleled heroism, he attempted to attack Count Dooku alone, even though the Count was said to possess vastly superior lightsaber skills. It would not come to a duel, however&mdash;Trebor was shot several times by Jango Fett and fell from Archduke Poggle the Lesser's box to his death.

After the Battle of Geonosis, Kit Fisto replaced the slain Master on the Jedi Council.

Behind the scenes

 * During production of the movie, he was originally named Sar Labooda. This name was later given to another Jedi in the arena.


 * The courageous Coleman Trebor remains the favorite Jedi of many fans, including his namesake, Rob Coleman ("Trebor" is "Robert" spelled backwards). However, those fans who are not aware of his diplomatic nature disdain him for the way he died. It is a fact that those on the Council need not be good swordsmen.


 * He was completely computer-generated by Industrial Light & Magic, and is seen both in the Jedi Temple and at the Battle of Geonosis. His headcrest was apparently modeled on the resonating chamber-horns found in fossilized hadrosaur remains.
