Petja was a Jedi who fought in the New Sith Wars under the command of Lord Hoth and General Kiel Charny. He died in the final days of the Ruusan campaign, killed through the use of the Force by a grief-stricken child, when he killed her friend.

BiographyEdit

A Jedi of stern resolve, yet idiosyncratic tendencies, Petja preferred to use a standard and somewhat primitive bow in battle, despite the availability of modern blasters.

Petja died shortly before the Seventh Battle of Ruusan, Force-crushed by Zannah after Petja mistakenly killed her companion Laa. After his death, the star Petja in the Ruusan system was named for him.
