Star Wars: What Happened To EVERY Jedi That Survived Order 66
9. Cal Kestis
Cal Kestis first appeared in the canon of Star Wars in the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, alongside Cere Junda and Taron Malicos. A young Padawan when the Purge began, Cal's Master, Jaro Tapal, was killed by the clones once in their service. For five years, Kestis went into hiding, evading the Empire.
After saving a friend by using the Force, Kestis came to the attention of the Inquisitors and was forced to become a fugitive, resisting the Empire's rule and officially re-connected with the Force in hopes of re-building the Jedi Order.
As he fled, he came into contact with the crew of the "Mantis", including former Jedi Knight Cere Junda and its captain, Dritus. In hopes of bringing an end to the Empire, Junda took Kestis as her new Padawan and they went on a mission to find a lost holocron said to contain the names of many Force-sensitive children in the galaxy.
On the mission, Kestis came face-to-face with both Darth Vader and the Inquisitors, and although he and Junda were able to escape, they destroyed the holocron to ensure the Empire couldn't use it to kill more innocents.
Recognised as a Jedi Knight the last time fans saw him, his story will be continued in Fallen Order's green-lit sequel.
