| Quote: | Plo Koon was an imposing Jedi Master and a long-term member of the Jedi Council during the Battle of Naboo and the Clone Wars. Koon was the last Padawan learner of the Wookiee Jedi Master and Jedi Council member Tyvokka. In the aftermath of the Stark Hyperspace War, in which Master Tyvokka was mortally wounded, Plo Koon was invited to serve on the Council in place of his former master. During this conflict, the natural leader Plo Koon had raised the Galactic Republic flag, inspiring his fellow Jedi to victory.
Plo Koon was a Kel Dor from the planet Dorin whose well-muscled humanoid form filled out his Jedi robes. His physiology was such that he wore protective goggles and his face-concealing antiox mask whenever in oxygen-rich environments. As a Kel-Dor, Koon naturally possessed highly developed extrasensory organs that supplemented his already formidable Jedi attributes.
His species tended to see issues in black and white, and favored what was termed "rough justice," a method of solving disputes that to non-Kel Dor seemed overly retributive and too close to vigilantism. Somewhat controversially, Plo Koon employed a Force technique that he called "Electric Judgement." This seemed to be harsh in comparison to his fellow Jedi.
A skilled and adept warrior, he fought many battles during his career. Plo hailed from a long Kel Dor Jedi dynasty, including an uncle and Plo Koon's own niece, Sha Koon, who fought in the war, as well. Plo was a master of the powerful Form V lightsaber combat. Also, Master Plo Koon possessed an extensive knowledge of the physical sciences. In particular, he used his expert knowledge of physics along with the Force to alter the environment: the resourceful Jedi could create whirlwinds as well as a dense fog over a limited area, freeze rivers and lakes, and raise or lower the temperature of his surroundings enough to incapacitate an opponent. He was a master of telekinesis, considering he could move objects without even having to face them. He wore talons over his fingertips, allowing him to further augment his already prodigious Force powers.
Plo Koon was also an accomplished fighter pilot; however, he was then topped by fellow council member, Saesee Tiin who was in fact topped by Anakin Skywalker.
Plo Koon tended to be unusually quiet, as he never spoke in any of the three movies he appeared in and rarely contributed to the Council's debates. Although, he was not so tacit in Cloak of Deception as he sided with his close friend Qui-Gon Jinn, who had fought along side him during the Stark Hyperspace War. .
Plo Koon was always humble and felt there were many others more qualified than he was to serve on the Council, notably his friend Qui-Gon Jinn. Plo was also a close friend of fellow Council member Micah Giett. After Giett was killed by Yinchori warriors, Koon took over the training of his padawan, Bultar Swan.
Plo Koon was present when Qui-Gon Jinn presented Anakin Skywalker as the Chosen One. He was also at Jinn's funeral and the celebration after the Battle of Naboo.
He was one of the Jedi who fought at the Battle of Geonosis and is among the few that survived. During production of Episode II, it was originally planned to have Plo Koon and Ki-Adi-Mundi lead an attack on the droid control ship. This idea was abandoned, however, as there was deemed to be insufficient character development.
During the battle of Brentaal IV, Koon led the battle from a cruiser in space.
During the Standoff at Rendili, Koon was present on the Flagship Mersel Kebir. The ships captain was Jace Dallin. When Lieutenat Yago tried to kill Dallin, Koon took action. Because of this, Koon was taken hostage and was to be killed. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Saesee Tiin, and Quinlan Vos were able to rescue him.
Plo Koon was then sent to Cato Neimoidia after a battle had taken place there. While there, Order 66 was issued. Koon was flying in his Delta-7 Starfighter when ARC-170s fired at him, breaking his ship apart and killing him in the process.
