Agen Kolar was a Zabrak Jedi Master raised on the planet Coruscant and was appointed a seat on the Jedi Council during the latter part of the Clone Wars.
Biography[]
Battle of Geonosis[]
Agen Kolar was a part of the 250 Jedi-strong elite strike team dispatched to Geonosis with Jedi Master Windu to rescue Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Senator Padme Amidala from execution. A massive skirmish with Separatist Droid Forces erupted upon their intervention, sparking the start of the Clone Wars. Kolar was one of few survivors of the devastating battle, though his Padawan sadly died in said fight.
Jedi High Council[]
Agen Kolar in Jedi High Council
During the Clone Wars, Kolar was chosen to be a member of the Jedi High Council to replace Eeth Koth and was present during many crucial meetings, including the debate of Anakin's Knighthood. Oppo Rancisis and few other Jedi Counselors were against Anakin being knighted, but Kolar supported Kenobi, telling others that Anakin has passed every trial the Clone Wars brought him, except the Trial of Spirit. Finally, the Jedi High Council agreed to knight Anakin due to a widespread shortage in the number of trained Jedi left since the start of the war. The Council decided the Order needed every knight they could muster.
Voices[]
In 19 BBY, Yoda decided to go to Dagobah and had a vision that Mace Windu, Kolar, Kit Fisto, and Saesee Tiin went to Palpatine's office to arrest him. However, Palpatine leaped out and nearly effortlessly killed Kolar and Tiin, who screamed in pain and fell dead before Palpatine fought Fisto and Windu, the latter joining his two fallen comrades.
Order 66[]
Once Windu was informed of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker's revelation of Palpatine being a sith lord. Kolar, along with masters Windu, Tiin & Fisto, stormed the Chancellor's office. Palpatine accusing the masters of treason spun and near-instantly killed Kolar and Tiin moments before murdering Fisto.
Skills and Abilities[]
Kolar fighting against Crab Droids
An unusually aggressive and militant Jedi, Agen Kolar was a renowned swordsman and expert unarmed combatant. Kolar fought in many battles before and during the Clone Wars on the front lines and was most suited to fighting rather than peacekeeping, earning himself a formidable reputation throughout the galaxy of striking first and asking questions later.
At the outbreak of the war, Kolar wielded a green-bladed lightsaber. Towards the end of the war however, he could be seen wielding an extremely rare orange-blade and later at the end of his life, a blue one. In one of the battles fought, he was accompanied by fellow Jedi Aayla Secura and Voolvif Monn; he fought on an icy planet against crab droids equipped with new, advanced weaponry in the form of "bubble wort" projectors. All three Jedi tried to defend themselves against the new, unanticipated weapons, but all three Jedi soon found themselves entrapped in the bubble projectiles, defenseless and immobilized. Thanks to the impeccable timing of Anakin Skywalker's arrival, though, they were all subsequently freed from their bubble prisons. Kolar served on the Jedi Council, leading other campaigns until the end of the Clone Wars.

Behind the Scenes[]
- The character of Agen Kolar was created to replace Eeth Koth in the movies when the actor for Eeth Koth couldn't make it to screening, and another actor was cast for the role who looked noticeably different. Thus Agen Kolar was born.
- In Tartakovsky's 2003 Clone Wars series, Agen Kolar was made but with Eeth Koth's likeness - particularly with the paler skin, more kempt hairstyle, more receded hairline, and bolder face tattoos than is seen with Kolar.
