Ester Mint (LAASWS)

Ester Mint was a Captain in a commando unit stationed on Coruscant in 102 BBY. He accompanied Behn-Kehn-Mehn's army when it attacked the Jedi Temple at the beginning of the Mezzilenic War. After the first assault was repulsed, Mint was sent with his commandos to infiltrate the Temple and take out its shields. Although the original infiltration went well, they were soon discovered and a massive firefight erupted and Mint headed off alone to take out the shields. After he planted charges he was attacked by Jedi Padawan Thame Cerulian and he grappled with him when he was blown clear of the Temple when the charges exploded. Only his commando armor saved him when he crashed into the ground several meters below and he was promoted to Major and dispatched to the front.
