Tresina Lobi (Jedi Renaissance)

Tresina Lobi was a female Chev Jedi Master serving the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic during the Jedi Renaissance as a member of the Jedi High Council.

Early service
Born on the planet Vinsoth in 11 BBY, Tresina Lobi's parents were reluctant to turn her over to the Jedi Order's Acquisition Division when a representative arrived to take her to Ossus for training in the ways of the Force. Relenting, Lobi was taken to the Jedi fortress world and lived at the Acquisition Division's tower until the age of four when she was taken to the nearby Academy for further training. Passing through the academy with high marks, Lobi was selected to train as a Padawan by Temple Master Mavra Zane, a member of the Tython Grand Council and director of Padawan Kesh.

Under Zane's leadership, Lobi studied rigorously at the nine Great Temples during her apprenticeship, taking an interest in the art of diplomacy after studying at the Temple of Knowledge. Strong in debates and showing interest in her homeworld and other worlds where the Hutts enslaved mass amounts of people. In order to pursue her interest in politics and diplomacy, Zane dispatched Lobi to the nearby planet of Kalimahr to work as an aide to the local planetary governor. After a year in the service of the governor, Lobi accompanied Zane on her first journey mission which took her to the untamed worlds of Hutt Space. Horrified by the reality which the slaves there were forced to endure their entire lives, Lobi vowed to see the Hutt Empire brought to justice. Urging her master to bring the issue of slavery before the Grand Council or the High Council, Lobi and Zane traveled to the Temple on Ilum where she constructed a green-bladed lightsaber. Throughout the rest of her apprenticeship Lobi studied endlessly at Kaleth, analyzing the histories of slavery and the Hutt Empire. To the great pleasure of Lobi, the High Council decided to act in 10 ABY and led an assault on Hutt Space, dismantling several slaving rings and mini-empires. Learning the techniques of lightsaber combat at Stav Kesh, Lobi passed her Trials of Knighthood in 13 ABY and left immediately for the Coruscant Jedi Temple which had been converted into an academy for the training of Jedi diplomats and ambassadors.

During her stay on Coruscant Lobi was actively involved in the Order's embassy within the Galactic Senate, Lobi became close with Supreme Chancellor Mon Mothma and Senator Malé-Dee of Uyter. After years of study on Coruscant and traveling across the Republic and acting as emissary to several former slave worlds, Lobi attained recognition as a trained diplomat of the Order and the Republic. Searching for new challenges, Lobi traveled to Raxus to work with the Confederate Senate and the planets under their control. Working for years in Confederate space, Lobi discovered the Force-sensitive girl Thrynni Vae on the planet Jaminere and turned her over to the Order. Watching Vae progress through the academy system over the years, Lobi selected the girl as her Padawan and trained her in the ways of the Force until she passed her Trials and became a Knight. Lobi returned to Ossus in 36 ABY following Lordes Fi's departure from the Jedi High Council and took a seat on the august body as the High Council began to renegotiate boarders with the Confederacy. Serving for a limited term, Lobi left the Council when negotiations were settled in 43 ABY and returned to Raxus to continue her work as an ambassador of the Order. Lobi would serve as the Confederate Senate's chief Jedi diplomat for two decades until her retirement in 65 ABY. Lobi would return to Coruscant to live out her final days at the Jedi Temple there, lecturing on the politics of the Confederacy until her death in 93 ABY. Upon her death, Lobi was cremated on the Temple's pyre in the Morning Court and presided over by Master of the Order K'Kruhk.
