Tyzen Xebec

Tyzen Xebec was a male Zabrak Jedi Padawan living during the waning years of the Galactic Republic.

Biography


During the Clone Wars, Xebec was assigned to Devaron, where under his Master, Jedi General Bolla Ropal, he, Commander Ganch and his clone troopers aided the locals in construction of non-military fortifications. Believing themselves far away from the front lines of the war, they were all caught off guard when the Confederacy of Independent Systems launched a surprise assault on the planet led by Duros bounty hunter Cad Bane. In the ensuing battle, a Low Altitude Assault Transport was pushed from it's place atop a large dam the Grand Army of the Republic was helping construct and plummeted to the ground below. Xebec and Ganch narrowly avoided death from the resulting explosion.

Behind the scenes
Tyzen Xebec first appeared in the webcomic The Clone Wars: Act on Instinct on StarWars.com where he is one of the key characters. Originally he was called Tyzen Xebel. After talking with artist Thomas Hodges about different characters, writer Pablo Hidalgo came up with a young Zabrak. With this information Hodges drew a pencil and marker sketch of the Padawan and his lightsaber.
