Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - 17 Easter Eggs, Secrets & References Explained

9. Jaro Tapal's Species

Jaro Tapal is one of Fallen Order's best characters, and he only ever appears through force visions and flashbacks! That's a testament to just how well the character was written, but despite looking incredibly cool (blue Jedi robes? Yes please), Tapal also actually belongs to an exclusive club - he's the only other Lasat to play a significant role in the Star Wars canon.

The other was Zeb Orrelios, who featured heavily in Star Wars Rebels and whose design was heavily inspired by Ralph McQuarrie's original concepts for Chewbacca.

Aside from Tapal's brilliant design, the character is also one of few Jedi known to have wielded a double-bladed lightsaber during the Republic era. Pong Krell was another to wield those weapons during the Clone Wars, so Tapal's weapon should be considered something of a rarity.
