Ava Daggoth (Jedi Renaissance)

Ava Daggoth was a female Aganof Jedi Master serving the Jedi Order during the Jedi Renaissance. A member of the Jedi Security Corps, Daggoth resided on Ossus in the Grand Temple and sat on the Council of Reassignment in 12 ABY.

Early career
A Force-sensitive Aganof, Ava Daggoth was discovered by Jedi Master E'koth Tassjun while on a mission to Kuras III on behalf of the High Council. Not familiar with the species, Tassjun sought out information on the strange blind and deaf beings to better raise Daggoth. Taking her back to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Tassjun instructed the caretakers at the academy on proper ways to nurture the young Aganof and communicate with her through the Force. Moving on many small legs, Aganof did not have a head and instead had dorsal, heat-dissipating flaps beneath which was a small mouth that caught tiny creatures attracted to the flap's heat. Each end of the Aganof body ended in a jointed limb tipped with a series of feelers. Relying on vibrations and scents for communication, Daggoth was able to understand her instructors and peers through the vibration of their vocal cords. Making her ways through the Temple academy, Daggoth was selected by Master Tassjun to continue her training as a Padawan.

Travelling with Tassjun to the Temple on Ilum, Daggoth constructed her first lightsaber with a green blade, learning to wield it in her forwarded facing jointed limb's feelers. While on missions, her startling appearance often frightened or disturbed the politicians or diplomats the Jedi met with, causing her to dislike working on missions where she actively had to interact with others. Deciding that she longed to work with the Jedi Security Corps, Daggoth worked on ways to use her unique biology and appearance work in a security role. She discovered that through the Force she could sense tremors in the ground up to a mile's radius, making sneaking up on her impossible. As a burrower, she found it was easy to dig a small warren quickly near outdoor security checkpoints and monitor her suspects at a close range before slipping out and arresting them. Perhaps her most startling technique was one she perfected under the tutelage of Master Oppo Rancisis; Malacia caused an intense dizziness in the target and incapacitated them for a short amount of time or until they regained consciousness.
