Legend

this young girl was a slave, owned by the Toydarian Lod, during the years leading up to the Battle of Ruusan. When Lod tried to sell her to the Sith Master Finn and his apprentice, the apprentice killed Lod for suggesting that he, too, was a slave. His brief moment of compassion for Marka eventually proved to be his undoing, however. Master Finn recognized that the girl was sensitive to the Force, and her enslavement had pushed her close to the Dark Side. When Marka followed them to their ship, Finn demanded that his apprentice deal with her. Marka then asked them to take her with them, although Finn refused on the grounds that he already had an apprentice. Marka took matters into her own hands, taking the apprentice's lightsaber and pushing him off the ledge of a building to his death. She then took her place as Finn's apprentice.
