- "Through the Force, a Jedi can endure even the most debilitating pain. Remember the Battle of Nar Shaddaa. Master Crucitorn fought on even after being immolated by the Flame-Wielders."
- ―Dooku, to Qui-Gon Jinn when teaching how to endure physical pain
The Flame-Wielders were a group who fought against the Jedi Order during the Battle of Nar Shaddaa,[1] which took place by 68 BBY on[2] the moon[3] Nar Shaddaa. After being immolated by the Flame-Wielders, Jedi Master Crucitorn managed to endure the pain and continued to fight back.[1] Around 68 BBY,[2] Jedi Master Dooku mentioned the Flame-Wielders when demonstrating pain endurance to his Padawan, Qui-Gon Jinn.[1]
Dooku later told his sister, Jenza, about his conversation with Jinn in a holo-letter.[1] Around 23 BBY,[4] Dooku gave several data disks containing his messages to Jenza to his recently recruited Sith assassin—Asajj Ventress—for her investigation into his sister's location, and she listened to the holo-disk that mentioned the Flame-Wielders.[1]
