Adi Gallia

Adi Gallia is a distinguished Tholothian Jedi Master and senior member of the Jedi High Council during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Born to Corellian diplomats, Gallia is raised amid political intricacies, developing a keen understanding of the Republic’s inner workings and honing her skills as a strategist and negotiator. Despite her Corellian heritage, she honors her Tholothian ancestry through the traditional headdress she wears, a symbol of her cultural identity and personal discipline within the Order.

Gallia rises swiftly through the Jedi ranks, recognized early for her intuition, sharp political acumen, and calm decisiveness. She plays a key role in major galactic events such as the Stark Hyperspace War, leads peace talks on Malastare, and commands Republic forces during the early battles of the Clone Wars. As a pilot, she is among the finest in the Jedi Order, trained by the renowned Saesee Tiin and known by her callsign “Shooting Star.” During the Battle of Geonosis, Mace Windu entrusts her with leading the Jedi starfighter assault, where she minimizes casualties while others face devastating losses on the ground.

Though a consular by discipline, Gallia does not shy away from combat. She is a master of Form V (Shien/Djem So), favoring powerful, aggressive strikes tempered by control and precision. She often employs a reverse grip style, allowing for unorthodox counters and fluid momentum. Her original red-bladed lightsaber reflects a bold independence, though she eventually replaces the crystal with a traditional blue in response to rising Sith influence. Uniquely, she is capable of channeling Force Lightning through her starfighter.

Gallia’s influence extends far beyond the battlefield. Her vast network of informants spans both the upper echelons of the Core Worlds and the criminal underworld of the Outer Rim. She monitors galactic unrest and corruption closely, often uncovering threats before they reach open conflict. She strongly opposes oppression, slavery, and systemic injustice, voicing her convictions with measured authority. Known for her dry wit and composed demeanor, she is not afraid to challenge her peers or speak bluntly in the face of absurdity.

Appearance: Adi Gallia is a dark-skinned humanoid woman with sharp, symmetrical features and piercing blue eyes. Her most distinguishing characteristic is the ornate Tholoth headdress she wears—a textured, crown-like structure from which several long, pale tendrils cascade down, signifying her Tholothian heritage. These tendrils appear fleshy and lightly mottled, framing her face and extending down over her shoulders. Her Jedi attire consists of standard earth-toned robes layered beneath a dark brown cloak. She wears a thick, functional leather belt with a lightsaber clipped to the side and knee-high, reddish-brown boots suited for mobility in various terrains.

Tholothians were a species of sentient humanoids native to the planet Tholoth. They could be distinguished from typical humans by their partial bluish skin pigmentation, their scaled craniums and fleshy white, blue, or red tendrils that sprouted from their skullcaps.
