Kayla Lanos was a Jedi Knight who rose to prominence as a Force-using soldier of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. While originally lying about being a Jedi to gain a high rank, she became the Padawan of Jedi Master Jeden Vesal, a survivor of Order 66 and one of the Alliance's founding members and Supreme Commanders. Under Jeden's tutelage, Kayla became a Jedi Knight, working alongside Rebel special forces from the Battle of Hoth to the end of the Galactic Civil War, most famously liberating Coruscant at the same time as the Battle of Endor.
