Djinn Altis

Kenobi PartV-InscriptionWall — Djinn Altis' name was carved into a wall in the Jabiim safehouse.

Djinn Altis was an individual whose name was carved into the walls of safehouses belonging to the Hidden Path network, which protected Force-sensitive individuals—including Jedi—from the Galactic Empire and smuggled them to^[1] the planet^[2] Jabiim, where they would receive new identities in order to hide.^[1]

The Hidden Path safehouse on the planet Mapuzo featured one such carving of their name, written in the Aurebesh script, which Princess Leia Organa saw when she and Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi visited the safehouse on Mapuzo^[1] in 9 BBY.^[3] A second carving of Altis' name—also in Aurebesh—was on the walls of the Jabiim safehouse^[4] at that time.^[3]
