General Nima was my Jedi General during the Clone Wars. In every battle the 17th fought in, General Nima was always there. Always on the front lines, reassuring us, fighting with us. He never let us down, and he sincerely cared for all his men. He [...] was a great warrior.
—Alpha-97 "A'den", reflecting on his days in the Republic alongside Nima
Floran Nima, a Force-sensitive human male was a deeply respected Jedi Master and a member of the Jedi Council of First Knowledge. During the Clone Wars, Nima was commissioned into the role of Jedi General, and led the 17th Comet Corps. He was considered one of the best Jedi swordsman of his time, and was widely considered deserving of becoming a member of the High Council.
When Floran was a young boy, a Jedi Master by the name of Mar Naak discovered his Force-sensitivity on his home planet of Alderaan. Naak would bring a young Floran to the Jedi High Council, when he was only five years of age. There, he spent seven years, training at the Jedi Academy. When he turned 12, he was sent to the Jedi Academy on Devaron, parting ways with his friends. Upon returning for his Ilum Trial, he discovered that his best friend, (still thinking of a name), had left the Jedi. Heartbroken, he would learn that she had left for unknown reasons, and no one knew her whereabouts.
As the Clone Wars broke out, Nima was bestowed the honor of being a Jedi Master. Choosing to fight in the war against the Confederacy of Independent Systems, he was given the rank of Jedi General, and assigned to lead the 17th Comet Corps. There, he fought alongside CC-2771 "Alor" and Alpha-97 "A'den", commanding officer and executive officer of the corps, respectively. Throughout the war, Nima fought in many major battles, most of which resulting in victories. Becoming a highly respected general in the Grand Army of the Republic, Floran's exploits in battle would eventually lead to him being assigned to the Jedi's Council of First Knowledge, becoming a specialized researcher in Jedi history and Sith history. Eventually, Nima would rediscover (still thinking of a name), on the planet of (still thinking of a planet name), saving her from slavers. He would later take her as his own Jedi Padawan.
Despite Nima's powerful connection to the Force, he too, like all other Jedi, could not sense Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's Clone Protocol 66 plot. When Order 66 came down, Nima was shot down by Prudii Company, the elite company of the 17th. The Jedi were then branded as traitors to the Republic by Chancellor Palpatine, and Nima's body was burned. After his death, he was portrayed to the Galaxy as a criminal by the Galactic Empire. He would be known to the public as the right-hand-man of Jedi Master Mace Windu, who himself, was portrayed as a crime gang leader. However, despite this false propaganda, the tens of thousands of citizens who had been saved by Nima over the Clone War's course remembered his actions, and still wrote poems about his deeds.
