Barriss Offee
this Mirialan Jedi Padawan was being trained by Luminara Unduli during the last decades of
the Old Republic. In addition to her skills as a warrior, Barriss also proved to be a skilled
healer. She was born on a transport ship in deep space, and never knew her parents. Her
connection to the Force was quickly discovered, however, and she was taken to Coruscant
for training. She proved to be a quick, though impatient, student, traits that seemed to be
more and more prevalent among the Padawans of her generation. Barriss accompanied
her Master, along with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, to the planet Ansion, shortly
before the Clone Wars, in an effort to prevent the Ansionians from seceding from the
Republic. Barriss was kidnapped shortly after their arrival, but managed to befriend her two
Ansionian kidnappers, Kyakhta and Bulgan, after curing them of their mental debilities.
Barriss was unsure of Anakin's suitability to train as a Jedi, seeing in him a recklessness
and emotion that she deemed uncharacteristic of a Jedi. However, upon meeting face to
face with Soergg the Hutt - the very being who had ordered her kidnapping - Barriss
realized that every Jedi had emotions that needed to be controlled. Her perception of
Anakin changed, and the two became good friends after successfully keeping Ansion as a
member of the Republic.
Their efforts nearly went for naught, as the Jedi were almost defeated at the Battle of
Geonosis. Both Unduli and her Padawan fought bravely, but were badly outnumbered by
the droid armies of the Separatists. Only the arrival of Master Yoda and the clone troopers
of the Army of the Republic saved the day. Barriss Offee managed to survive the Battle of
Geonosis and returned to Coruscant with her Master.
Two years later, the pair were separated during the height of the Clone Wars, when Barriss
was dispatched to Drongar on a mission to assist the medics there while also keeping a
watchful eye on the production of bota. She believed that this would be her individual Jedi
Trial, a chance to prove herself against the backdrop of the war. She was unprepared for
both the visible horrors of a Republic Mobile Surgical Unit and the mental anguish of being
forced to confront death every day. In addition, she found herself at odds with the combat
instructor for Rimsoo-7, Phow Ji, who continually egged the young Padawan closer to a
driect confrontation. Barriss knew that her desire to best Ji came from the Dark Side of the
Force, and tried to keep it under control. When Ji was shot by a Separatist agent with a
poisoned dart, Barriss was forced to swallow her desires and save him by extracting the
poison with the help of the Force. Her elation at saving him was quickly dissipated when Ji
threw himself back into battle, using a thermal detonator to destroy a Separatist army that
was converging on his position. Her anger briefly flared again, as she believed Ji had
wasted her gift on a mission to prove his superiority. It was then that Barriss realized the
extent of the Jedi Trial, and she struggled to keep herself focused on the mission. An
attack on Rimsoo Seven showed Barriss the disgusting underbelly of war, as the
Separatists broke all conventions to destroy the medical facility. In the evacuation, Barriss
watched in helpless horror as Zan Yant was killed instantly by a piece of shrapnel, then had
to endure Jos Vondar's stoic refusal to grieve. After the camp was relocated, Barriss
accidentally discovered that processed bota could heighten her connection to the Force, a
discovery that she quickly relayed to Master Unduli on Coruscant. However, the mutating
bota meant that any further investigation was impossible.
During the Clone Wars (the exact time period is in question) Offee and her master were
sent to the planet Geonosis to aid Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan,
Ahsoka Tano, in helping destroy the weapons factory, headed by Poggle the Lesser. Tano
and Offee were sent under to the catacombs, while Skywalker and Unduli acted as decoys.
The Padawans made it to their destination, however they had been spotted and were
attacked by the new Confederate super tank, as well as Geonosians, and the bombs they
had planted were removed while the two were distracted. Tano and Offee took control of
the tank, and came to the conclusion that the only way to destroy the factory would be to
use the tank's weapons to fire upon the reactor, even though they knew that they likely
would not survive the explosion. They did not know about the shielding on the tank, though,
which saved the two Padawans, but they were buried under a large amount of debris.
Worried they would die of lack of air, Ahsoka put two power cells together, activating her
comlink. Anakin picked up the signal, leading their Masters to rescue them from the debris.
By the time Barriss was dispatched to capture Shu Mai on Felucia, Barris had achieved the
rank of Jedi Master, and was actively engaged in the training of her own Padawan, Zonder.
However, when Darth Sidious revealed his true nature and killed Mace Windu, he sent out
communications to the various clone commanders to execute Order 66. Upon hearing the
order, clone Commander Bly ordered his troops to open fire on Jedi, and Lieutenant Galle
blasted the defenseless Jedi Master and killed her
