Kossex, a Jedi Master of the Weequay species, was a female who dedicated herself to the Jedi Order and served as a General for the Galactic Republic's Grand Army of the Republic during the period known as the Clone Wars.
Kossex, a female Weequay with the rare ability to use the Force, was trained in its ways by the Jedi Order, ultimately achieving the esteemed rank of Jedi Master. Raised within the walls of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant from a young age, Master Kossex did not subscribe to the religious beliefs of her people, specifically the worship of the deity Quay.
As war erupted between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Master Kossex answered the call to duty and joined the ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic, assuming the role of General. Early in the Clone Wars, Master Kossex was deployed to Kamino, the central location for the Republic's cloning operations, with the mission of defending it from a Separatist attack. Serving under the overall command of Masters Oppo Rancisis and Shaak Ti, Kossex became a member of Red Squadron, a starfighter unit led by Master Tsui Choi. Piloting a Delta-7 interceptor above Tipoca City, Kossex engaged in combat against numerous droid starfighters during the battle. While assisting Jedi Anakin Skywalker in evading an enemy fighter, Kossex failed to detect another starfighter approaching from behind. Before she could respond, the droid fired, destroying her interceptor and resulting in Master Kossex's immediate death. Due to her adherence to the tenets of the Jedi Code, her people did not mourn her passing, instead considering her a heretic.
