Kelleran Beq's History
Kelleran Beq was a Jedi Master who supervised Padawans as they went through their Jedi Trials. He was assisted by the protocol droid AD-3 and the astromech droid LX-R5. Beq had served aboard the starship Athylia. The Jedi Master had fond memories of his Jedi Trials. He is a highly skilled Jedi Master and his skills with lightsabers earned him the nickname "The Sabered Hand" during his time as a Padawan. Beq can also communicate with the Force.
During the Siege of the Jedi Temple, Beq waited for the youngling
Grogu, who was one of his students, to arrive in an elevator. As the elevator door opened, Beq with his lightsaber already ignited told
Grogu that he was there to save the youngling. Beq picked up another lightsaber from a fallen Jedi and used it to his advantage as he was proficient at Jar'Kai (being able to wield two lightsabers at once). They were quickly ambushed by several clone troopers but the Jedi Master managed to deflect the oncoming blaster fire and Force pushed a clone trooper off the edge of the temple. As more reinforcements arrived, Beq and
Grogu rushed to a BARC speeder and fled the Jedi Temple.
While in the skies of Coruscant, Beq and
Grogu were chased by several Republic Gunships. Beq warned
Grogu that it was going to be rough ride after one of the the gunships managed to hit the engine of the speeder. Trying to flee the gunships, Beq went inside a tunnel used for the hovertrains. A hovertrain soon approached the two going from the opposite direction of the tunnel, Beq made a turn to avoid collision and went into a station which led to Monument Plaza while the hovertrain hit the gunship behind. They continued to fly off, Beq told
Grogu to not worry and that they were going to meet some of his friends before adding that it was going to be a bumpy landing. They reached the platform, but Beq fell off the speeder as they landed. The Jedi Master then got back up and opened the hovering pram to check if
Grogu was alright.
Beq was then greeted by the sympathetic Royal Naboo Security Forces aboard a small Naboo yacht. One of the guards asked about the other Jedi to which Beq responded there were no others left. Their conversation was cut short as a gunship landed on the platform and both clone troopers and clone shock troopers came out and opened fire. The guard told Beq to take the ship and that it was fueled and ready to go, while the guards of the Royal Naboo Security Forces bought some time for their escape. Beq and
Grogu entered the yacht and the Jedi Master quickly started the ship. Two V-wing starfighters soon approached them from the sky and started to shoot as Beq took off from the platform. As they left Coruscant and entered space, Beq immediately jumped into hyperspace escaping safely with
Grogu.
