Lost Twenty
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
- "Only twenty Jedi have ever left the Order."
"The Lost Twenty. And Count Dooku was the most recent and the most painful. No one likes to talk about it. His leaving was a great loss to the Order." - ―Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jocasta Nu[src]
The Lost Twenty, earlier known as The Lost, was the name given to the Jedi Masters who had voluntarily resigned their commission and left the Jedi Order, usually over ideological differences.

[edit] History
One of the earliest members of the Lost Twenty was the Umbaran Jedi Master Phanius, who eventually became Darth Ruin, the first Dark Lord of the Sith in the New Sith Empire. Over time more would leave; twelve by 990 BBY.It is unknown why the Masters that left after the Jedi Civil War are not included in this group
The twentieth member of this group was Master Dooku, who left the Jedi Order in 32 BBY and became, unbeknownst to the Order, Darth Tyranus.
Despite never having attained the rank of Jedi Master, Darth Vader considered himself to be the twenty-first member of this group.
Thracia Cho-Leem, the Master of Vergere, was not counted among the Lost Twenty, despite leaving the Order as a Jedi Master. The reasons for this are unknown. Some think this was because she stayed on the light side. Yet she never returned to the Jedi Order.
Along with the most venerable Masters, the Lost were remembered in the form of busts in the Jedi Archives; a reminder of the Jedi's greatest failures, though the Jedi did not fault the individuals for leaving. On each pedastal the great deeds of these masters was listed, though no mention of why they left was displayed.
