- "I'm sorry. Forfive was just dragging me to an emergency comm, so I'll definitely get back to you. Forfive, can you find a minute or two for the RDC allocation this afternoon or, even better, tomorrow…"
- ―Elzar Mann, to the second aide
An individual served as the second aide of[1] the Sullustan[2] Galactic Republic Senator Tia Toon during the High Republic Era. They had four round purple eyes.[1] In 228 BBY,[3] the aide was in a hallway of the Senate building on[1] the Core Worlds[2] planet Coruscant and saw Jedi Master Elzar Mann being informed by a secretary of Republic Supreme Chancellor Lina Soh that his meeting with the chancellor had been canceled.[1]
The aide's eyes brightened as they realized that the Jedi would now have time to discuss the allocation of Jedi on the border of the Nihil pirates' Stormwall barrier that prevented hyperspace travel. Mann, however, made an excuse to avoid the discussion and informed the aide that he would get back to them. The Jedi Master then asked his droid JJ-5145 to fit in a better time for the discussion and left before the aide could gape. Shortly after, as Mann meditated within a Senate building storage closet, he mentally recalled his interaction with the aide.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Tia Toon's second aide was mentioned in the 2024 novel The High Republic: Temptation of the Force, written by Tessa Gratton and published as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's[1] Phase III.[4]

The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic: Temptation of the Force takes place one year and six weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon and its events span a few months, its events must be set in 228 BBY.
