Mace Windu’s Jedi Master…Was A Literal Tree

The Star Wars prequel-era Jedi Master, Mace Windu, received his Jedi training from a sapient tree in Legends. Mace Windu is the last Master of the Order, or leader of the Jedi Council, in the original Jedi Order, having fought valiantly to protect democracy in the Clone Wars before tragically dying at the hands of Palpatine shortly before the Jedi Order and Galactic Republic were destroyed. Mace’s earlier life was once discussed in the Legends continuity, an alternate branch of the Star Wars franchise since April 2014, which delved into the roots of the prequel trilogy’s Jedi and their respective masters – including Mace Windu’s mentor.
