About Jocasta Nu

Chief Librarian of the Jedi Archives on Coruscant, Jocasta Nu serves as the keeper of one of the galaxy’s most comprehensive repositories of knowledge. This elderly human Jedi dedicates her life to cataloguing and preserving millennia of galactic history, from ancient Sith artefacts to contemporary political records. Her domain within the Jedi Temple houses countless holocrons, datapads, and texts that document everything from obscure planetary cultures to the genealogies of Force-sensitive bloodlines across the galaxy.

Despite her scholarly appearance and measured demeanour, she possesses an unwavering confidence in the completeness of her archives. When Obi-Wan Kenobi approached her seeking information about the mysterious planet Kamino, she firmly insisted that if a system did not appear in the Jedi records, it simply did not exist. This absolute faith in her collection’s accuracy reflects both her meticulous nature and perhaps a certain institutional blindness that would prove costly during the Republic’s final years.

During the Clone Wars, she continued her work whilst the galaxy descended into chaos around her. The conflict brought new challenges to her role, as the war generated fresh intelligence that required careful documentation and analysis. Her expertise proved invaluable to the Jedi Council as they navigated the complexities of the galactic conflict.

When Order 66 transformed the clone troopers against their Jedi commanders, she faced the same fate as her colleagues. However, her legacy endures through the vast knowledge she helped preserve, even as the Empire sought to rewrite galactic history to suit its own propaganda.
