Biography
The Grand Inquisitor was a male Force-sensitive Pau'an who was born a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. By the time of the Clone Wars, he had served as a Sentinel in the Jedi Order and protected the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. This was until the culmination of the war when the Sith enacted their plans to take over the galaxy. As a result, a purge was conducted by the Clone Troopers who turned against their Jedi superiors in order to kill them all. In this time, a Pau'an Jedi was captured and fell to the Dark Side of the Force in the time the Galactic Republic had ended. The resultant first Galactic Empire was created where the Jedi Temple Guard came to agree to serve in it as an Inquisitor.
He came to be tasked by Darth Vader to hunt down any surviving Jedi Knights.
Responding to reports of a Jedi on Lothal, the Inquisitor relentlessly pursued Kanan Jarrus and his Padawan Ezra Bridger. The Inquisitor was far more powerful than either, yet both repeatedly escaped him. But that only made for a more interesting challenge.
