Ferren Bar was an Iktotchi Jedi Padawan who served in the Jedi Order during the Clone
Wars and the Fall of the Republic.
Fortunately He was able to escape the Great Jedi Purge, surviving the horrific day of
Order 66, and go into hiding on the ocean world of Mon Cala.
So, I’m going to break down exactly how Ferren Barr Caused imperial Clone Purge troopers
to execute Order 66 for a second time on their own men, and his shocking fate.

Also let me know down below if you want me to cover some of the prequel stories to this,
including how Ferren Bar knew Darth Vader Vader was Anakin Skywalker, and was able to
hack into the Jedi Temple security system and watch Anakin Slaughter the younglings
in the Jedi temple.
The story begins with Admiral Raddus mounting a huge defence of his homeworld of Mon Cala
from an incoming imperial fleet, led by Governor Tarkin.
As this is happening however, Dark Lord Darth Vader is also swiftly moving towards the planet,
flanked by his band of obedient inquisitors and a squad of Clone Purge troopers wearing
mostly black armor, who are now loyal to the Empire.
Darth Vader senses the presence of Jedi Padawan Ferren Barr and his disciples, which is allowing
him to track them down.
As Vader and his loyal troopers are marching towards Barr’s Location, he receives a hologram
transmission from Governor Tarkin, requesting that he track down and kidnap King Lee Char,
as a personal favour for himself.
Vader is of course angry at Tarkin, saying that he is not subject to Tarkin’s authority,
but Tarkin of course reframes the question, asking Vader again, to which he finally agrees
to hunt the King down.
Because of this, Vader quickly splits off from his inquisitors and Clone Purge troopers
to hunt the King, sending them alone to track down Ferren Bar and his followers.
The Ninth sister, who you might remember from Jedi: Fallen Order, quickly assures Vader
that they will be able to complete the task without him, and begin on their mission.
Ferren Barr quickly realizes that the dark Imperial inquisitors were rapidly chasing
him down, and because of this, began to evacuate with the two disciples who were with him,
Daren and Verla, who some believe was actually the hooded figure in the Mandalorian Season
2 trailer.
I’m not the biggest fan of that theory, but if you guys want I can definitely make
a video breaking down all of the evidence on that one.
Following that, Daren is horrifically killed by an inquisitor's spinning, red blade as
it shreds his chest to pieces, right in front of Ferren Barr and Verla.
Following Darren’s brutal and swift death, the rest of the inquisitors burst onto the
scene, backed up by the imperial Clone troopers.
As they approach Barr and Verla, the Sixth brother asks what they were talking about,
to which the tenth brother quickly responds, telling him that he was able to hear them
say that there was “no way” out, because of his species exceptional hearing.
The 10th brother is part of the Miraluka species, which evolved to have no eyes, meaning they
probably also evolved to have exceptional hearing in order to make up for the loss of
sight.
Verla becomes incredibly angry at the inquisitors at this point and is ready to charge in and
give her life to take a few of them down with her.
Padawan Ferren Barr quickly holds her back however, saying that he has another, much
more clever idea.
Because he was a Jedi Padawan before the fall of the order, he remembers each of the inquisitors
from their time in the Order, while they respected the light side of the force.
Because of this, he is able to remember each of their old names.
The tenth brother, prosset Dibs, the sixth brother Bil Valen, and the Ninth Sister, Masana
Tide.
As he says the names of these former Jedi, a stunning realization comes over him, which
gives him enough confidence to drop his metallic lightsaber hilt to the cold rocky ground.
In response to this, the Ninth sister arrogantly states, “so what?
We know you too.
You were a Jedi Padawan, Ferren Barr”.
They were unaware however that Ferren Barr’s genius plan involved turning the very Clones
standing behind them, against them.
He confidently explained he had studied the paste.
He tracked down every single piece of information about how Palpatine was able to trick the
Galaxy and the role of the Clones in the betrayal of the Republic.
Ferren Barr then quickly ripped the Clone Purge Trooper’s helmets off and pulled a
stunning move.
All of his study and time in hiding had led to this moment.
He called the words Execute Order 66 to the Clone Troopers, while using a Jedi mind trick
on each of them.
The inquisitors were absolutely shocked when they heard this command, but didn’t truly
expect it to work on their Clone Troopers.
Unfortunately for them however, the Clone quickly lined up, surrounding the team of
inquisitors, opening fire on their targets, sending a flurry of red energy bolts towards
them, executing Order 66 for a second time.
The inquisitors were forced to wildy flail their lightsaber in every direction to barricade
against the incoming onslaught of blaster bolts from the Clones, which gave Verla and
Ferren Barr time to escape the area.
As the two fugitive Jedi began their escape, the tenth brother was unable to defend from
the rush of glowing red blaster bolts, with one striking him directly in the heart, killing
him immediately.
The two rapidly use the force to leap over the squad of Clone Purge troopers and the
other inquisitors, before escaping into a dark cavern, deeply enraging the Ninth sister.
While this is going on, Vader enters the Mon Cala Royal Command Bunker, where King Lee-Char
is located, and ignites his luminous red lightsaber before he begins to horrifically tear through
his royal guards.
Vader eventually slaughters every single one of the Mon Calamari guards, before making
his way deeper into the bunker, all the way to the final chamber, where King Lee-Char
himself is hiding.
As Vader ominously enters the chamber, Lee-Char draws his blaster, attempting to fire on Vader,
but he quickly deflects the green blaster bolt back into the hand of Lee-Char, forcing
him to drop the weapon in pain.
Vader then quickly reports back to Tarkin that his favour is complete and that he has
captured King Lee-Char.
Tarkin then asks Vader to transmit his location, so that he can begin an Orbital bombardment
on the planet without accidently killing Vader or his target.
Vader probably wasn’t too happy about this part of the mission, as you can imagine.
Tarkin then gives the order to fire when ready, beginning the savage bombardment of the ocean
world, evaporating huge amounts of the planet's water and destroying many of its buildings
and ship production facilities.
King Lee-Char threatens that he will be central to the destruction of the Empire, but Vader
quickly snaps back, telling him that a twitch of his finger could end Lee-Char in an instant.
As Lee-Char continues to insult Vader and the Empire, Padawan Ferren Barr makes a shock
entrance into the room, igniting his flickering blue lightsaber, calling Vader out on his
threat to Lee-Char.
In response, Vader confidently ignites his own red blade, preparing for an intense battle.
The disgraceful orbital bombardment of the planet continues to ring out as Ferren Barr
and Vader’s blue and red blades come together with an enormous screech.
While the intense battle is raging on between Barr and Vader, Admiral Raddus orders his
fleet to scatter so that they cannot be eliminated easily and prepares to enter the fight of
their lives.
Sadly, King Lee-Char is forced to watch both the destruction of his people and planet and
the ongoing battle between the dark lord of the Sith and the fugitive Jedi Padawan.
Vader then begins to taunt Barr saying that his death will be meaningless and serve no
purpose, but he quickly retorts saying that his death is not at all certain.
Vader senses a deep pride in Ferren Bar who is becoming more and more angry with Vader’s
rapid advances.
While this is happening, the orbital bombardment of the ocean world is increasing even more
rapidly than before, forcing King Lee-Char to send a transmission out to all Mon Cala
forces to stand down and surrender, hoping to stop his people from being decimated by
Tarkin’s assault.
Raddus is shocked by this decision, and Tarkin continues the horrifying bombardment of the
planet even after Lee-Char’s surrender.
Darth Vader’s fight with Ferren Barr becomes even more ferocious, as Raddus begins to show
his Rebel spirit from Rogue one, refusing to sit in orbit and die, while watching his
people suffer.
As the energy bolts rain down from orbit, Ferren Bar takes a pause from his fight with
Vader and bursts into laughter.
Lee-Char asks him why he is laughing when billions of his people are dying, to which
he quickly revealed that he orchestrated the whole situation so that Mon Calamari ships
would become a symbol of freedom and peace across the Galaxy.
Lee-Char quickly protests, asking how he can do this when billions of people are dying,
but Barr repsonds saying “Billions, who will inspire trillions, as was my plan”.
This turn of events even disgusts Darth Vader, who tells Barr “you are no Jedi”.
Let me know in the comments down below how you feel about placing billions of lives in
Danger in order to inspire a rebellion against the Empire.
Can you forgive Ferren Barr for his actions?
Following the rise of the Mon Cala fleet, we cut straight back to the inquisitors, where
we of course find out that the Ninth sister survives after killing most of the Clone Purge
troopers, who we later see in Jedi: Fallen Order and the Sixth Brother also makes it
onto a water speeder with several stormtroopers, who we later see fight Ahsoka on the farming
world of Raada, in the Ahsoka Novel.
We then also see that Verla does survive, who we know goes on to feature in the Star
Wars: 2020 comics, where she comes face to Face with Luke Skywalker.
Following that, we sadly see that Vader has slaughtered Ferren Barr in Cold Blood, leaving
his dead body on the cold, hard ground.
Prince Lee-Char is also led away in cuffs as Vader declares that there is no Mon Cala.
Mon Cala is gone.
There is only the Empire.
So that was the story of the fallen Jedi Padawan who tricked Clone Purge troopers into executing
Order 66 for a second time on members of Darth Vader’s inquisitors.
Let me know down below how you feel about Ferren Barr’s actions, in luring the Mon
Cala fleet into battle.
Thanks so much for watching, really hope you enjoyed the video.
Cheers guys, hope to see you in the next one!
