With an athletic build, an exotic beauty, and blue skin, Aayla Secura stood out among the many faces of the Jedi ranks. She was a Jedi Knight during the rise of the Clone Wars. A cunning warrior, Aayla fights alongside Clone Commander Bly on many exotic battlefields. Having mastered the emotional detachment necessary in the Jedi Order, she tries to pass on what she has learned to others.
Aayla served alongside Ahsoka Tano during the mission that saw the Jedi stranded on Maridun. Anakin was injured, and Ahsoka was distracted with her concern for her Master. Aayla spoke to Ahsoka about the nature of attachment within the Jedi ranks.
Aayla Secura was once the Padawan of Jedi Knight, Quinlan Vos. Vos, an untraditional Jedi who often frequents the galactic underworld, saved Aayla from the seamier side of Ryloth, her home world.
Aayla Secura tried to rally the Lurmen to defend their home against the Separatists, but was rebuffed by elder Tee Watt Kaa, who believed firmly in pacifism.
As a general in the Republic military, Aayla Secura leads the Star Corps of clone troopers, under the command of Clone Commander Bly.
Though Aayla Secura was born on Ryloth, she was raised in the Jedi Temple since a very young age. Aayla laments the situation on Ryloth as does any Jedi, but she is not on the front line of combat operations there, nor does she feel any powerful attachment to the world. As a Jedi, she is a servant of all the worlds of the Republic, and not just her home planet.
