In addition to his responsibilities as head of security, Drallig still found the time to teach lightsaber combat, as indeed the ongoing war placed emphasis on Padawans' combat training in favor of other abilities. Master Drallig admired young Skywalker's assertiveness in solving the alarming case, but was most concerned at how vulnerable the Order had become, and how the image of the Jedi as benevolent protectors had become much too fragile. Flanked by two members of the Jedi Temple Guard, Drallig stood before the masses when Anakin Skywalker showed a hologram of a suspect, Jackar Bowmani, to the Jedi Master, which was seen by Bowmani's wife Letta Turmond. A throng of protestors-family and friends of workers killed in the explosion-gathered at the steps of the Temple to criticize the JediвЂ™s involvement in the war. ДЄround 20 BBY, two years into the war, the Jedi Temple hangar was the site of a shocking terrorist bombing that cost numerous lives, prompting Cin Drallig to keep an especially close watch on the TempleвЂ™s perimeter. Despite his diligent watch on security, however, intrusions into the Temple did happen, such as when bounty hunter Cad Bane stole a Jedi holocron from a restricted vault and got away. Stationed on Coruscant, Drallig made his home deep within the Jedi Temple. As the Clone Wars continued to unfold, Drallig grew particularly concerned with the growing hostility towards the Jedi from Republic citizens. His position also put him in charge of the Jedi Temple Guard and their assignments.

As head of security there, he spent most of his time in the Temple, patrolling its corridors and pathways. Clone Wars File:Dralligbenewhie.jpgДrallig instructed Whie (left) and Bene (right) in lightsaber use.Дuring the time of the galaxy-spanning Clone Wars, Drallig was tasked with protecting the Jedi Temple. Though it smacked of disrespect, Drallig earned the unflattering nickname of 'the Troll' among the Order. ДЄfter many years of service and attaining the rank of Jedi Master (no earlier than 31 BBY), Drallig was elected battlemaster (or swordmaster), making him the leading lightsaber combat instructor in the Temple. Though it never entirely disappeared, Keto's rebelliousness eventually subsided, and she went on to become Master Drallig's most accomplished apprentice. Under DralligвЂ™s guidance, Serra's understanding of the Force and her lightsaber skills blossomed, inspiring a strong bond of devotion between student and Master. Envisioning the great Jedi she had the potential to become, Master Drallig took young Serra as his Padawan and helped her find her center. SerraвЂ™s defiant ways had nearly gotten her expelled from the Order on more than one occasion, and her Jedi Masters were exasperated.

ДЄt some point, Drallig was introduced to the contentious and troublesome Padawan Serra Keto. In 31 BBY, one of Master DralligвЂ™s classes on the seven forms of lightsaber combat was recorded on the Great Holocron. Over his career, Drallig taught the basics of Forms I through VI to thousands of students, including such stars-to-be as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. Later on in his career, Drallig began his servitude as a lightsaber instructor, in keeping with the Jedi custom of passing on their special knowledge to the next generation -especially seeing as Drallig possessed true talent as a swordsman. Eventually, Drallig passed the Jedi Trials and was made a Jedi Knight by the High Council. Here, he would have trained until he graduated the academy and was selected by a Jedi Master as a Padawan.

Like most Jedi of the era, it can be surmised that Drallig was brought to the Jedi Temple soon after being discovered to be Force-sensitive and sorted into an Initiate clan for group instruction in the Jedi academy.
