Luminara Unduli
Affiliation: Jedi Order

Luminara Unduli was a faithful and dedicated Jedi Master in the final years of the old republic. A mirialan from the planet Mirial, Luminara sported patterned tattoos denoting her dedication yo physical disciplines. Years of intense training had increased the flexibility of her joints to allow tremendous agility in combat. Her extreme lightsaber moves were virtually impossible for humanoid Jedi to pull off, and turned her body itself into a weapon of stealth and strength. Luminara’s padawan, Barriss Offee, was also a Mirialan. Together. The two used the force to synchronized their lightsaber movements and work perfectly in tandem, making the pair more powerful as a unit thank either would be by herself. Barriss stayed close to her mentor’s side whether during important meetings with the supreme chancellor, or in the thick of combat, as during the outbreak of the Clone Wars.
Both Luminara and Barriss were part of the Jedi task force that was sent to the Geonosian execution arena, distinguishing themselves with their amazing lightsaber skills.
Luminara was killed shortly after the battle of Kashyyyk and Barriss was killed by an AT-TE on Felucia. Both were victims of Emperor Palpatine’s Order 66.
Note: From the Data Holocron: Both Luminara and Barriss were masters of Form 3 lightsaber combat, though Luminara was also skilled in Form 4.
Mirial was a cold, desert world just off the Hydian Way between Yavin and Almania. The Mirialans had a rich culture with religious beliefs based on a primitive understanding of the unifying Force.
