Read more about Ki-Adi-Mundi at: Wikipedia Official Site: 20th Century Fox Films Ki-Adi-Mundi is a fictional character from the Star Wars universe. He was portrayed by actor Silas Carson throughout the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Ki-Adi-Mundi is a wise Jedi Knight and Jedi Council member at the time of the Clone Wars. Notably, he is invited into the Council after the fall of Master Micah Giiett during the Yinchorri conflict, at the urging of Master Mace Windu who was not keen on the other candidate, Qui-Gon Jinn. Hailing from the planet Cerea, he survived the Battle of Geonosis in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, fighting alongside other such luminaries as Windu and Yoda. He contributed in the end by rescuing other Jedi, like Kit Fisto, by grabbing them and putting them on board while deflecting blaster shots with Windu. The comic books series Star Wars: Republic establishes that Ki-Adi was once the apprentice of the enigmatic Jedi Master known as The Dark Woman, but he later came under the tutelage of Yoda. In the Republic story "Hate and Fear", Ki-Adi-Mundi takes over as Anakin Skywalker's surrogate master when Obi-Wan Kenobi is presumed dead after the Battle of Jabiim. In an episode of Star Wars: Clone Wars, Ki-Adi-Mundi is part of a Jedi strike force (group consisting of Master Daakman Barrek, Padawan Sha'a Gi, Tarr Seirr, K'Kruhk, Aayla Secura and Shaak Ti) that goes to Hypori to destroy a droid factory. Their ship is shot out of the sky and all surviving clone troopers are killed by super battle droid. General Grievous then attacks the Jedi, who barely fend off his attacks. Ki-Adi-Mundi, Shaak Ti and Aayla Secura were the only survivors.
