"The Jedi Council has another mission for you." - ―Obi-Wan Kenobi and Tosan
Tosan was a Zygerrian female Jedi Master who served the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic following the Battle of Naboo. At some point, she informed Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi that the Jedi Council had a mission for him concerning a Jedi holocron discovered on the planet Dallenor. Tenacious by nature, Tosan used a yellow-colored double-bladed lightsaber.

Tosan presents a mission to Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Once a guardian Jedi Knight,[2] Tosan attained the rank of Jedi Master while serving the Jedi Order[1] and the Galactic Republic.[2] Sometime after the Battle of Naboo[1] in 32 BBY,[3] Tosan met with Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi at the Jedi Temple on the planet Coruscant to inform him that the Jedi Council had assigned him a mission to the Mid Rim world of Dallenor.[1]
Interrupting Kenobi's training session with his Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, Tosan handed over a datapad to Kenobi containing the details of his assignment. He was to investigate the discovery of an ancient Jedi holocron, a Jedi artifact used to store information, by an archaeology team excavating on Dallenor.[1]
Personality and traits[]
Tosan was a Zygerrian female who had gold eyes, tan skin, and pink hair.[1] She was considered to be a tenacious Jedi.[2]
Equipment[]
Tosan wielded a double-bladed lightsaber.
Jedi Master Tosan wielded a yellow-colored double-bladed lightsaber.[2] She wore brown Jedi robes with a green overtunic and brown undertunic, a utility belt, and a pair of brown boots.[1] Tosan also occasionally wore a pair of brown gloves.[2]
Behind the scenes[]
Tosan was introduced as playable character "Jedi Knight Guardian" in the 2015 mobile game Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, which features characters from both the canon and Legends continuities.[2] The character was later identified by name when she appeared in the canon comic Age of Republic - Obi-Wan Kenobi 1, which was written by Jody Houser, illustrated by Cory Smith,[1] and released by Marvel Comics on January 2, 2019.[4] Tosan's inclusion in the comic book was conceived by Houser, who is a fan of the mobile game.[5]
"Jedi Knight Guardian" was designed by artist Noah Soliday Bench for Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes.[6] In the game, a non-playable character, "Apprentice Sentinel," has the same character model as Tosan. The former character also wields a double-bladed lightsaber, albeit it features orange-colored blades.[2]
