Kelleran Beq's lightsaber was a green-bladed lightsaber wielded by the Jedi Master Kelleran Beq,[4] who was nicknamed "The Sabered Hand" due to his skill with the Jedi weapon.[5] Beq wielded this lightsaber during the implementation of Order 66 on Coruscant, Operation: Knightfall, while attempting to defend the Jedi Initiate Grogu from the attacks of the clone troopers of the 501st Legion.[4]
Behind the scenes[]
During an interview with Kristin Baver, Ahmed Best confirmed that Beq had a purple lightsaber color as an intended homage to Jedi Master Mace Windu.[6] Upon appearing in The Mandalorian's "Chapter 20: The Foundling," however, Beq's lightsaber was shown to sport a green blade.[4]

- ↑ Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places the events of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith in the year 19 BBY and Beq's appearance in the The Mandalorian episode Chapter 20: The Foundling takes place during the events of that film. As this episode takes place during the events of the film, Kelleran Beq's lightsaber must have been created prior to 19 BBY.
