Template:SW Character Rosh Penin is a character in the fictional Star Wars expanded universe.

He is a young human Jedi featured in the computer game Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. He befriends Jaden Korr and is one of Kyle Katarn's apprentices at the Jedi Academy on Yavin IV.

While taking part in an investigation on Byss with the Jedi Academy regarding a cult called the Disciples of Ragnos, Rosh is captured. Later he is found by Jaden Korr and Kyle Katarn inside the late Darth Vader's castle on V'jun. They find that Rosh had been turned to the Dark Side by a woman named Tavion, who is the mastermind behind the cult.

A distress signal from Rosh is later picked up by Katarn and Korr, and it leads them to Taspir where a large Imperial Remnant/Disciples of Ragnos facility is located. In the game, Jaden finds Rosh inside the facility and is furious at him for his betrayal. Rosh tries to tell Jaden that he made a mistake, and Master Katarn also warns Jaden not to give into anger. The player can then choose to let Rosh live and remain on the path of light, or kill Rosh and turn to the Dark Side.

In the version where the player spares Rosh, the young Jedi survives but loses his arm when Alora, Tavion's apprentice, attacks him before engaging Jaden in a heated lightsaber duel. Rosh later receives a new cybernetic arm back on Yavin IV. This version is likely the more canon version.

If the player chooses to kill Rosh, Jaden stabs him in the abdomen and leaves him for dead, thereby turning Jaden to the Dark Side. Shortly after Jaden kills the Dark Jedi Alora and leaves the facility, Kyle finds Rosh near death. Right before he dies, Kyle grants Rosh the rank of Jedi.
