Shin Hati's character is fascinating.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Shin Hati’s character in Ahsoka feels tonally similar to Darth Maul’s in Star Wars – and it makes her all the more fascinating. Played by Ivanna Sakhno, Shin Hati is the young apprentice of Ray Stevenson's Baylan Skoll. They are neither Jedi, not even Inquisitors, but something else altogether: Dark Jedi, those who have fallen to the dark side without devoting themselves to any one way of life or religion.
Maul, like Shin, was the apprentice of a stoic and tactical master – none other than Emperor Palpatine himself. It’s easy to imagine that Shin’s story as Baylan’s apprentice is very similar to Darth Maul’s story before the events of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, learning to wield the power of the Force under the influence of darkness, no real family or friends to speak of.
Shin Hati Is A Savage Berserker In The Style Of Darth Maul Both Shin and Maul fight with a strength-first mindset. The twirls and acrobatics of the Jedi, while useful to them in certain situations, are less important than tiring out their opponents with brutish attacks. It’s not just their fighting styles that are similar, however. It’s the way they approach each task, each opponent.
Shin Lacks Maul's Skill - & That Makes Her Even More Thrilling Shin’s story in Ahsoka is very much the story of an apprentice in training; she’s nowhere near the level that Maul was in The Phantom Menace and beyond, despite their similar temperaments. Maul might have always been brutish and fueled by rage, but there was a purpose to every strike of his lightsaber. He was a formidable opponent, even for the most seasoned of Jedi.
Shis is unpredictable as a character, not just as a duelist; she might disobey Baylan in a fury-fueled haze, or turn on him completely and choose her own path. Shin’s story in Ahsoka only makes the need for Maul’s story before his abduction by Palpatine all the more obvious.
