- "Whoever heard of a Feeorin Jedi? But Feln is a natural."
- ―Krynda Draay
Feln was a Feeorin Sage Master stationed on Taris around 3,964 BBY. He was one of the five Jedi Masters that was implicated in the murder of his own Padawan, Oojoh, and three others. He wielded a green lightsaber, and was a member of the First WatchCircle of the Jedi Covenant. He was also the Exalted, the eldest Feeorin and their leader. [1].
Biography
Early years and Jedi training
Before becoming a Jedi, Feln was the Elder of his tribe. He defeated all enemy tribes thanks to his Force-sensitivity, which his fellow warriors believed was magic. He was found and taken by Jedi Master Krynda Draay, and then joined with three other students at the Draay Estate on Coruscant.
For several years, he honed his abilities with the Force along with his prowess as a pilot. After passing all of Krynda's trials he was admitted into the Jedi Order as a Jedi Knight and would go on to become a Jedi Consular along with the three other trainees with him.
Eventually, Feln returned to his homeworld and allowed the Jedi Covenant to use the Sanctum of the Exalted, the holiest place for the Feeorin, as a storehouse of Sith artifacts. Other Feeorin, such as Borjak, believed allowing outsiders in the Sanctum was a violation of the Rime Feeorin - the ancient code of Feln's people. However, they followed Feln's orders as he was still The Exalted.
Assignment on Taris
Once a master, Feln was assigned to the Jedi Tower on Taris with the other members of the First WatchCircle to secretly recover the Muur Talisman. Because Feln and his partners were keeping their real mission a secret, the Jedi High Council felt that the masters, who were assigned to defend Taris, would be capable of training Padawans. The masters accepted reluctantly, since they needed to appease the Council in some manner. On Taris, Feln was the leader of the search for Zovius Mendu, who was smuggled off Taris by Marn "Gryph" Hierogryph in a crate of dried dreeka fish.

Near the end of his role as mentor to his student Oojoh, the masters arranged for their Padawans to have a survival test on the Taris system's Rogue Moon. It was a place where the Force flowed freely and where the Masters could be alone, at times when they needed to meditate on Covenant related issues. They envisioned the destruction of the Jedi Order and the rule of the Sith. Fearing this possibility, the five Masters pointed out that the Sith in their visions wore similar suits as their Padawans were wearing at the same moment. When Raana Tey demanded the Padawans be executed, Feln quickly agreed to aid in the task for the protection of the galaxy.
After a final celebration with the Padawans and their families, the Covenant members took their students to the Council chambers and executed them; though Lucien's own Padawan escaped. Blaming Carrick, the Taris masters quickly began to hunt the so-called fugitive.
Searching for Zayne
He joined fellow Masters Q'Anilia, Lucien, and Raana in their pursuit of Zayne Carrick and Marn Hierogryph; their search leading them into battle with rakghouls in Taris's Undercity. The masters were later present at the attempted arrest of Zayne and Gryph at Junk Junction, where the two managed to again escape offworld. Bounty hunter Valius Ying eventually captured Zayne and took him into custody so that Feln and his partners would finally be able to set things right. Lucien told Zayne the truth in front of the hunter, whom he murdered, and Zayne would have been next if not for a surprise rescue from Jarael and the crew of the Last Resort.
Weeks later, after a series of riots breaking out due to the escape of Zayne, Feln and the other four members of Covenant received a message from Carrick, who gave them an ultimatum: confess and clear his name, or die at his hand. With Taris lost, the Jedi High Council recalled the masters to Coruscant for their failures.
The High Council's decision
- "Back home, reclaiming ground lost in a war was the noblest cause there was."

Upon returning to Coruscant, Feln and the other masters attempted to meet with Krynda Draay. However, they were denied entrance by the household droid. The Circle met with the Jedi Council and pleaded their point that they needed to be leading the search for the renegade Padawan. Master Vrook Lamar denied them and ordered that they be reassigned to separate postings.

Despite the fact that the former Taris Masters had been sent elsewhere on separate assignments to aid the war effort, they managed to keep in contact with each other. Feln later attended a memorial for Raana Tey but it was interrupted by a vision of the Muur Talisman. He offered to head for Taris to kill Zayne and destroy the ancient artifact, but Lucien had someone else in mind who was already there.
Return home
Feln returned to his homeworld of Odryn at the time in which Zayne Carrick and Gryph sought to leave the planet and expose the Covenant to the Jedi Council.[2] After Zayne and Gryph were captured, Feln reported to Lucien Draay that Zayne had gotten in to the Sanctum using Celeste's key and were taking recordings of the Covenant's activities. They incorrectly concluded that Zayne had killed Celeste and was planning to blackmail the Covenant. Lucien told Feln to destroy the Sanctum if worst came to worst.
Personality and traits
- "I saw my death! How can I let pass a warning from the Force?"
- ―Feln argues for action against their visions.
Like others of his species, Feln was very foreboding and brusque. He was quick to go for the most direct answer to a problem. Due to his early life on Odryn, he retained many of the Feeorin's proverbs and sayings, though he rarely allowed this to interfere with his mission.
