Species: Human (Bespin)
Lightsaber Color: Blue
Created by: Kevin J. Anderson
First Appearance: Jedi Search (1994)
When Luke Skywalker was looking for candidates for his Jedi Academy, he heard rumours of a tibanna gas prospector who could detect eruptions of gas clouds, preempting even the abilities of droids. Luke sought out Streen on the planet Bespin where the man had been living in seclusion. Streen's uncontrolled power to detect the thoughts and feelings of those around him had driven him away from society. Streen agreed to accept Skywalker's offer to train him, so long as Luke could teach him to block the emotions of others.
On Yavin IV, Streen learned the arts of telekinesis, Force illusions, and Jedi battle techniques, however Streen was strongest at manipulating the air around him. Whilst training, a dark presence lurked nearby. The ancient ghost of the Sith Exar Kun sought to destroy Skywalker and his trainees. Kun, in his efforts to defeat Skywalker, tricked Streen. Kun conjured an image of a Dark Man and Streen created a Force Storm to defeat this Dark Man. However Streen was actually attacking Master Skywalker. Later Streen and his fellow students were able to defeat Exar Kun, banishing Kun's spirit from Yavin IV, forever.
As time passed Streen became a Jedi Knight and eventually a Jedi Master. Eventually, Luke entrusted Streen to run his Jedi Academy. Streen would later fight in the Yuuzhan Vong war. He also attended the funeral of Mara Jade Skywalker in the year 40 ABY.
Behind the Scenes:
The final appearance of Streen in canon was his attendance at Mara Jade's funeral which was depicted in the 2007 sourcebook "Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force".
