Elio, a Jedi Master, held a position within the Jedi Order during the time of the Republic Era. In approximately 68 BBY, this Master was dispatched to the planet of Shurrupak to provide aid in a battle. He journeyed there aboard a shuttle accompanied by another Jedi Master, Dooku, and his Padawan, Qui-Gon Jinn. During their voyage, the ship endured intense enemy fire, prompting Elio to comment that, in spite of the rough conditions, the Primus Base located on the planet, along with their intended landing zone, was merely a five-minute flight away. After touching down on the beach of Shurrupak, Elio, along with the other Jedi, quickly exited the shuttle and proceeded through a gate to enter Primus Base.
The character Elio was featured in a flashback sequence in Master & Apprentice, a novel from 2019 authored by Claudia Gray.
