BiographyEdit

Like most Jedi of the era, Et Rex was discovered near birth to be Force-sensitive and sent to the Coruscant Jedi Temple for training in the ways of the Force. Entering into the academy there, Rex eventually graduated and was selected by a Jedi Master for training as a Padawan. After years of one-on-one training, Rex would have completed his Trials of Knighthood and made a Knight by the Jedi High Council.^[1]

In 25 BBY, Rex was partnered with his good friend and fellow Knight, Jedi Alysun Celz. Piloting the Consular-class space cruiser the Radiant IX, Celz fell to the dark side of the Force and attempted to draw Rex into her madness. When he refused Celz reported to the Council that Rex was a maniac, framing him for her several evil deeds. In route to Coruscant to imprison the innocent Jedi the cruiser was attacked by a flock of mynocks, causing the ship to crash on the Poison Moon in the Hoth system. Stranded, Celz killed all of her crew with bolts of lightning from her fingertips while Rex went into hiding on the asteroid's surface.^[1]

When the Radiant IX did not arrive at the Temple, the High Council dispatched Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, to search for and detain the supposed Dark Jedi Et Rex. When they discovered the wrecked cruiser the team searched the body-littered ship for signs of life when they were attacked by a blaster-wielding figure. Revealed to be Celz, she feigned relief and remained with Skywalker as Kenobi searched for the reportedly dangerous Rex. Outside, Kenobi discovered the accused Jedi Rex who revealed the true events that had unfolded on the ship. Racing back inside, Kenobi ignited his lightsaber to deflect the lightning that Celz had unleashed upon Skywalker. Rex aided in the rescue by hurling two mynocks at the Dark Jedi, distracting her long enough for Kenobi to detain her. Bound in a Force-dampening device, Celz was placed under arrest and taken back to Coruscant for judgment by the High Council.^[1]
