Marrok's Timeline
Key Events in Marrok's Star Wars Story
Marrok (First Brother) died in 9 ABY.
Marrok was a mysterious, heavily armored Force-sensitive humanoid warrior who served the Galactic Empire's Inquisitorius — reportedly under the designation First Brother — after training as a member of the Jedi Order before the fall of the Republic. Inducted into the Inquisitorius before Darth Vader alongside Barriss Offee, the Fourth Sister and the Eleventh Brother in the early Imperial Era, he hunted surviving Jedi and, with the Eleventh Brother, pursued the crime lord and former Sith Lord Maul during Imperial operations on the Mid Rim world of Janix. He is best known for his silent, brooding presence in the New Republic era, when he served the Nightsister Morgan Elsbeth as a mercenary alongside the fallen Jedi Baylan Skoll and his apprentice Shin Hati, wielding a scarred, sputtering red blade in Elsbeth's search for the exiled Grand Admiral Thrawn. Marrok was cut down by Ahsoka Tano on Seatos in 9 ABY, and rather than dying as an ordinary man, his armor burst with thick green smoke as his body shriveled away — strongly implying he had been sustained or reanimated by Nightsister magick, leaving his true identity and the true moment of his death among the most persistent unanswered mysteries in current canon.
Unknown - Birth
Marrok's birth year, homeworld and species are never established in canon; he is identified only as a male humanoid. He was born some decades before the Clone Wars, since he was old enough to have trained with the Jedi Order before its fall.
Before 19 BBY - Service in the Jedi Order
Marrok was a member of the Jedi Order prior to the rise of the Empire, making him one of the Jedi who survived Order 66 and later turned against his own kind.
~18 BBY - Inducted into the Inquisitorius
In the early Imperial Era, Marrok knelt before Darth Vader as he was inducted into the Inquisitorius, alongside Barriss Offee, the Fourth Sister and the Eleventh Brother.
~10 BBY - Hunting Maul on Janix
Serving the Empire as an Inquisitor, Marrok worked with the Eleventh Brother during operations on the Mid Rim world of Janix, pursuing the crime lord and former Sith Lord Maul. He reported to a cloaked superior he addressed only as "my lord."
After 4 ABY - Mercenary for Morgan Elsbeth
Following the Empire's collapse, Marrok was hired by the Nightsister Morgan Elsbeth, serving in her forces alongside the Force-sensitive mercenaries Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati.
9 ABY - Ambush on Arcana
Marrok shadowed Ahsoka Tano and Huyang on Arcana, where Elsbeth's people recovered a star map pointing the way to the distant galaxy holding Grand Admiral Thrawn.
9 ABY - Duel on Seatos and death
On the forest world of Seatos, Marrok fought Ahsoka Tano and was struck down by her blade. His armor split open and released a burst of thick green smoke as his body withered and collapsed, suggesting he had been animated or sustained by Nightsister magick. His identity was never revealed.
