Raskta Lsu was an Echani female Jedi Master, and soldier in General Hoth's Army of Light. She was named after the legendary Echani Raskta Fenni, who was also regarded as the greatest warrior of her time. Because of this, Lsu aspired to equal and then surpass the renown of her namesake. Thus, her entire Jedi career was spent honing her martial skills exclusively, and with time her mastery of the lightsaber was such that many considered her peerless in its application. Lsu was so renowned for her battle skills that she was granted the vaunted title of Weapons Master of the Jedi Order. Lsu displayed her talents during the New Sith Wars, fighting in many battles against the Sith's Brotherhood of Darkness.
Ten years after the
final campaign which ended the war on the planet
Ruusan, Raskta Lsu was part of a team of Jedi selected by
Lord Valenthyne Farfalla to embark on a
mission to the fabled Jedi
birth world of
Tython, in attempt to eliminate the
last two remaining Sith Lords in
the galaxy,
Darths Bane and
Zannah. Upon arriving and landing on the
Deep Core world, Farfalla's Jedi team engaged the
Sith, and Lsu once again displayed her skill with the lightsaber. She fought valiantly, and was the only one of the five Jedi to match Bane's own power with the blade. However, she was undone by the
wiles of Darth Zannah, who sneaked up behind Lsu and
impaled her, thus
ending the Jedi Master's life.
