10 Obscure Star Wars Characters Who Need To Be In LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
5. Even Piell
Even Piell was a Lannik Jedi Master who served on the Jedi
Council in both the film’s Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace and Star
Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones. While not playing a major role in
either film, he was one of the Jedi who accompanied Yoda and Mace Windu to
Naboo to witness the funeral of fellow Jedi Master, Qui-Gon Jinn, and the
celebration of peace after the defeat of the Trade Federation.
Piell’s most distinguishing feature is the large scaring over his left eye. In the Disney Cannon, it is unknown how he received this scar; however in Legends, he received the scar while foiling an assassination attempt on the Prince of his homeworld. Piell appeared in three episodes of the 2008 animated show Star Wars: The Clone Wars, where he teams up with Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka Tano, and is ultimately killed fighting an Anooba, a large wolf-like creature.
Despite currently not featuring in any of the LEGO Star Wars
video games, Piell was featured alongside fellow Jedi Saesee Tiin and the
astromech droid R3-D5 in the 2012 LEGO set ‘Saesee Tiin's Jedi Starfighter.’
After being seen in action in the Clone Wars, it would be good to see Piell
take a playable role in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
