Jenza was a Serennian female, the daughter of Count Gora and Countess Anya, and the younger sister of Dooku and Ramil. Gora abandoned the Force-sensitive Dooku to be found by the Jedi Order, becoming a Jedi initiate. Among other initiates, Dooku returned to Serenno during a festival, encountering Jenza and discovering who she was. After returning to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Jenza and Dooku secretly continued to communicate. After Lady Jenza was kidnapped, by Republic-backed agents, Dooku tasked his apprentice Asajj Ventress to track her down. Although, Ventress did not know it at the time, Dooku's intention was for Ventress to continue in her role of his personal assassin by killing his sister, because Jenza planned to reveal Dooku's secrets to the Republic, thus severing his ties with the past. Jenza pleaded with Dooku to contact the Jedi and not continue down the dark path he was on, but Dooku was not persuaded and had Ventress execute her.[1]

- ↑ The script of Dooku: Jedi Lost states that Jenza is eleven years old when Dooku is at the age of twelve. Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know places Dooku's birth in 102 BBY, meaning that Jenza must have been born one year later in 101 BBY.
- ↑ The present day events of Dooku: Jedi Lost, including Jenza's death on Serenno, take place shortly after Asajj Ventress is recruited by Dooku, which Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle! dates to 23 BBY using the dating system established in Star Wars: Galactic Atlas.
