- "Running back to your Council?"
"It is you who has run, Dooku, into the arms of evil." - ―Dooku and Yaddle, during their duel
Jedi Master Yaddle wielded a green plasma-bladed shoto lightsaber during her service to the Jedi Order. Despite her skill in lightsaber combat, Yaddle lost a duel with the fallen Jedi Count Dooku, who killed his former colleague in the aftermath of the Invasion of Naboo.
Description[]
Yaddle's shoto lightsaber was a Jedi weapon that emitted a green plasma blade.[1] Like all lightsabers, Yaddle's lightsaber was powered by a kyber crystal.[2]
History[]
- "I'm afraid it is too late."
"No." - ―Dooku and Yaddle, before their duel

Yaddle was forced to wield her lightsaber against another Jedi, Count Dooku, who had joined the Sith Lord Darth Sidious.
As a member of the Jedi Order, Jedi Master Yaddle carried a lightsaber during the late era of the Galactic Republic. Following the end of the Invasion of Naboo, Yaddle followed Count Dooku from the Jedi Temple to the LiMerge Power building on Coruscant. There she discovered Dooku's secret alliance with the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. Failing to turn Dooku away from the dark side of the Force, she defended herself in a lightsaber duel but was ultimately bested by the Count, who subsequently executed his fellow Jedi as proof of his loyalty to the Sith.[1]
