Selig Kenjenn was a Human male Jedi Knight who served the Old Jedi Order during the final period of the Old Galactic Republic.
Biography
A Human male from an unknown world, Selig was sent to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant where he would begin his training in the ways of the Force. Selig completed a lot of his training and was selected by an unnamed Jedi Master where he would serve as a Padawan. Selig continued his training with his master and managed to pass his Trials of Knighthood, earning him the rank of Jedi Knight.
In 22 BBY, a full-fledged military conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Separatist Alliance would occur. After Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine was granted the power to use the Grand Army of the Republic to stand against the Separatist Crisis, Selig Kenjenn joined Mace Windu's Jedi strike force to Geonosis to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Padmé Amidala that were sentenced to be executed in the Geonosian Arena of Justice. Upon infiltrating the arena, Selig and the Jedi revealed themselves to Count Dooku and the Separatist Council. However, the Separatists' newly-revealed droid army swarmed into the arena in their hundreds, filling the battleground with blaster fire, cutting down many of the less skilled or experienced Jedi. Selig survived the battle and fought in the Clone Wars in the rank of General.
After the war against the Separatist Alliance was over in 19 BBY, resulting the deaths of Dooku and General Grievous, Selig managed to avoid Order 66 which was issued by Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, who was revealed to be the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. Along with two Jedi, Selig and his comrades were eventually found and surrounded by Imperial forces that managed to find them. Making their last stand, the three Jedi fought to their last breath and were killed in the crossfire.
