Dem-Gon Jinn

"I understand now, my focus determines my reality."

- Dem-Gon Jinn to his father.

Dem-Gon Jinn was the son of Jedi Masters Qui-Gon Jinn and Tahl. He was born four years before Tahl's death and he had a high midi-chlorian count, he also had a strong connection with the Force which came from his father and mother.

The boy was secretly sent to a distant planet so his connection with the Force would not be detected, a place where Qui-GonŽs and TahlŽs secret would be safe.

Qui-Gon did several missions on Dantooine when he was a padawan, there he gained the trust and friendship of the Adare family, remembering that old friendship Qui-Gon decided to hide the boy under their protection.

Childhood
Dem-Gon spent his childhood on Dantooine, he enjoyed running through the fields and courtyards, lying in the shadow of a Blba tree, looking at a Brith flying in the sky.

A remarkable thing was that he was not afraid of the Kath hounds.

He was very interested in history and that was the reason why he liked to explore the ruins of the Jedi Enclave.

Jedi Enclave


At that time the Jedi Enclave was an empty and partially destroyed place, plundered and sacked four millenia ago.

Dem-Gon once found a hidden door leading to an intact area used for training and meditation, there he found a good amount of Jedi relics which he studied and kept, including a Jedi Holocron.

He used that place to meditate and communicate with his father.

Jedi Training
Secretly, Qui-Gon trained his son until the day he died on Naboo.

The young Dem-Gon realized of his fatherŽs death when Qui-Gon appeared in front of him, as a Force Ghost and told him what had happened, with this new way of communication he continued Dem-GonŽs training leaving him all his knowledge and wisdom until he was ready to receive the rank of Jedi Knight.

Forms Mastery
Dem-Gon Jinn was a master in Form IV: Ataru and Form II: Makashi, which were taught by his father.

Lightsaber
It was Dem-Gon's 13th birthday (the same year his father died), this day was an important occasion for a Jedi apprentice, he was aware that as a part of the tradition he would receive a meaningful gift from his Master.

Qui-Gon as a Force Ghost gave his old lightsaber to his son as a gift, Dem-Gon made it his primary weapon and replaced the lightsaber he constructed in the beginning of his Jedi training.

Clone Wars
Knowing what was happening in the galaxy, Dem-Gon (with the advice of his father) kept himself away from the Clone Wars, in this long period of time he traveled to several planets in search of wisdom, Lost Holocrons, crystals and a way to amplify his knowledge of the Living Force.

Jedi Fight
During a visit to Manaan, Dem-Gon fought a Dark Jedi and a member of Emperor's Hand that had detected his strong Force-Sensitive presence and recognized him as a Jedi who survived the Great Jedi Purge, using combinations of Form IV and Form II he defeated both of them.

He then dismantled some parts of their TIE/ad starfighter to upgrade his YT-2400 light freighter named Star Eagle.

Personality
Independent and calm, also a distinguished Jedi Warrior, he reflected his father's strength and wisdom.

Dem-Gon also spoke Huttese and several other languages.

Skilled for diplomacy he also had knowledge of the architecture and engineering of various space transports and large capital vessels.
