Qui-Gon Jinn
" Qui Gon Jinn was perhaps the greatest Jedi alive even stronger than Master Yoda, a commanding presence at Council, a strong and brave warrior who refused to be intimidated by even the most daunting challenge, and a good and kind man. "
- Terry Brooks, The Phantom Menace novelization
Qui-Gon is introduced in Episode I as a wise and powerful Jedi, the mentor of the young Obi-Wan Kenobi. He is something of a maverick among the Jedi Order; unlike other, more conservative Jedi Masters, he values living in the moment as the most effective and rewarding way to embrace the Force. While other Jedi respect him, they are frequently puzzled by his unorthodox beliefs, and ultimately deny him a seat on the Jedi Council.
Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones reveals that he was trained in the ways of the Jedi by Count Dooku who by the time of the film has left the Jedi Order and become a Sith Lord. Qui-Gon's idealistic personality was very similar to his master's, but unlike Dooku, Qui-Gon remained true to the Jedi Order his entire life.
