[edit] Biography
As a young Padawan, Sha Koon was present at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant during the Stark Hyperspace War in 44 BBY. On the planet Troiken, Plo Koon was able to make telepathic contact with Sha over a very vast distance through space. Sha's connection with her uncle facilitated vital two-way communication between the Jedi Council and Plo's team on Troiken. In response, the Council sent a Jedi strike force to assist, which helped in bringing a resolution to the conflict.[1]
Sha Koon went on to serve as a Jedi for over 20 years, and participated in the Clone Wars. She was part of a task force responding to intelligence revealing the Confederacy's intent to mine cortosis ore on the Outer Rim world Bal'demnic. The task force—which included Halagad Ventor, several other Jedi and clone troopers—assisted the native Kon'me species to successfully repel Confederacy forces, though the natives also drove Sha's task force away.[2]
At the end of the Clone Wars, Sha's uncle, Plo Koon, was shot down by Clone troopers during the Second Battle of Cato Neimoidia via Order 66 carried out by Palpatine.
