A close friend of the titular Jedi master, Kenobi discovers that none other than Quinlan Vos survived Order 66 after the events of Star Wars: Episode III- Revenge of the Sith. While the Jedi knight isn't seen directly in the new episode, his legacy and operations during the dark times of the Empire's reign have finally been revealed.

However, Quinlan would come back in the canonical Clone Wars animated series as well as in the novel Dark Disciple from Christie Golden which was published in 2015.
