Qui-Gon Jinn Master Qui-Gon Jinn is an experienced Jedi who has proven his value to the leadership of the Jedi order in many important missions and difficult negotiations. In his maturity, however, he remains as restless as he was in his youth. When Qui-Gon encounters young Anajin Skywalker on the Outer Rim desert would of Tatooine, the Jedi is deeply struck by a unshakeable sense that the boy is part of the galaxy's destiny. In boldly championing the cause of Anakin Qui-Gon sets in motion momentous events that will ultimately bring balance to the Force - but not without great cost. ==== On the desert planet of Tatooine, Qui-Gon wishes to avoid being recognized as a Jedi. Accordingly, he trades his customary Jedi robe for a rough-spun poncho such as those worn by local settlers and moisture farmers. ==== Qui-Gon has risen to great prominence within the Jedi order, and is well-known to the members of the High Council. Yet in spite of his outstanding service as a Jedi Knight and Master, Qui-Gon has been by for a seat on the Council. This is due to his bold, headstrong nature and his favoring of risk and action, which sometimes bring him into disagreement with his Jedi peers and elders. ==== On meeting Anakin, Qui-Gon believes he has recognized the prophesied individual who will restore balance and harmony to the Force. The Jedi feels so strongly that he has recognized this individual that he is not persuaded otherwise by members of Jedi High Council, including the influential Yoda, who sense daner in the boy. ==== Qui-Gon earned rank of Master when he trained his first Padawan apprentice to Knighthood, although his second apprentice failed to become a Knight. Obi-Wan is Qui-Gon's third Padawan and a worthy student of his wisdom and skill. ==== The Jedi workshops on Coruscant supply exquisite materials and tooled got initiates constructing their own lightsaber. The initiates' ability to do this sucessfully proves their developed sensitivity to the Force. ==== Greed and political scheming are weakening the Galactic Republic that Qui-Gon serves. In an attempt to restore lasting pace and security to the galaxy, Qui-Gon is motivated to take a more active role than that traditionally taken by the Jedi. ==== Qui-Gon Jinn's Lightsaber: Following the custom of his day, Qui-Gon has built a lightsaber with a highly elaborate internal design. Multiple small power cells are stored in the scalloped handgrip and microscopic circuitry governs the nature of the energy blade. Simpler lightsaber designs, built outside the halls of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, tyically use a single large power cell inside a solid handgrip. ==== Points about Qui-Gon Jinn: *Wears Jedi tunic *Rugged travel boots *Wears Jedi robes *Long hair worn back to keep vision clear *Is a Jedi Master *Has a green bladed lightsaber *Dark brown robes |
