Asajj Ventress EU/ Legends
In the Eu Asajj Ventress was a female Dathomirian Dark Jedi and a valuable Dark Acolyte to Count Dooku.
Originally a Nightsister from Dathomir, Ventress was taken as a slave to Rattatak and trained as a Jedi Padawan by Jedi Knight Ky Narec.
However, after Narec was slain, Ventress gave into her anger and began walking the path of the dark side; taking up the lightsaber of her dead master, she trained herself in the Jar'Kai style of lightsaber combat, before slaying all the warlords on Rattatak and installing herself as its ruler.
At the time of the Clone Wars, Ventress served as one of Count Dooku's loyal acolytes and served in the rank of commander in the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
She had yearned to learn the ways of the Sith from Dooku and believed if she had proved herself worthy, she would become his apprentice. She even blamed Obi-Wan Kenobi for her failure and made it an obsession to hunt and kill him. Soon after her first encounter on the moon Ohma-D'un, she hunted him on missions on Christophsis, Teth, and Ord Cestus, but never gained the chance to defeat him.
In addition, during her struggles with Kenobi, she was also confronted with Kenobi's apprentice Anakin Skywalker, who also defeated her several times, being seriously injured in a duel on Yavin IV. When she especially wanted to meet Skywalker by threatening his lover Padmé Amidala,
he was almost killed in duel on Coruscant and initially disappeared from the scene.
On the planet Boz Pity, Ventress was placed in a bacta tank by Count Dooku and given cybernetic modifications to amplify her rage.
When Republic forces attacked Boz Pity, Kenobi came upon the chamber in which Ventress was contained within a Separatist facility, and was subsequently attacked by her when she detected him in her trance.
She fought against both Kenobi and Skywalker, only to be unexpectedly abandoned by Dooku, who did not want her to delay his escape with an exhausted and malfunctioned Grievous. He ordered an IG-100 MagnaGuard to kill her as she desperately tried to reach Dooku's shuttle. Using a blaster rifle, the droid shot Ventress down as she approached the shuttle.
Enraged and wounded, Ventress attempted to kill Kenobi, who was trying to help her, only to be dealt a mortal wound by Anakin.
As she lay dying, Ventress told Kenobi to protect the Galactic Core from Dooku, and finally let go of her anger and rage. Perhaps, she mused, Kenobi had been right about her. With that, Ventress appeared to die, and Obi-Wan ordered her apparent corpse to be placed aboard a medical shuttle.
Despite appearances to the contrary, Ventress did not die, instead placing herself in a Sith trance on Boz Pity using her Sith healing techniques to heal the wounds she suffered. She was loaded aboard the med runner Bright Flight, and, while on board, emerged from her trance and ordered the pilots to alter their course; to take her as far away as possible from the war, Dooku, and the Jedi. The pilots complied.
