Eeth Koth

This Zabrak Jedi Master from Iridonia carved out a distinguished career within the Jedi Order, rising to secure a coveted position on the High Council during one of the galaxy’s most turbulent periods. With his characteristic horned appearance and calm demeanour, Eeth Koth served alongside fellow Council members like Mace Windu and Yoda, helping to guide the Order through the final years of the Republic.

When the Clone Wars erupted, Koth transitioned from his contemplative Council duties to active military leadership. He commanded clone troopers as part of the Grand Army of the Republic, demonstrating the warrior spirit typical of his Zabrak heritage. His tactical skills proved invaluable during numerous campaigns, though his most harrowing experience came when Separatist forces captured him, subjecting the Jedi Master to brutal interrogation and torture.

Beyond his Jedi commitments, Koth maintained ties to the Church of the Ganthic Enlightenment, reflecting the complex spiritual landscape many Force-users navigated. This dual religious connection highlighted how some Jedi reconciled their Order’s teachings with other philosophical traditions. Portrayed by Hassani Shapi across multiple films, the character appeared in pivotal moments throughout the prequel trilogy, witnessing everything from young Anakin Skywalker’s first Council appearance to the Republic’s final transformation.

His presence in both live-action films and The Clone Wars animated series allowed audiences to see different facets of his character, from the stoic Council member deliberating galactic affairs to the battlefield commander facing the brutal realities of war.
