In revenge of the Sith we got the biggest turning point in the Star Wars universe, order 66, where Anakin cut off Mace Windu’s hand and Sidious threw him out the window. It was after this that Anakin was dubbed as Darth Vader. The entire conversation from the novel is quite different from what we got in the film, Palpatine was actually a lot more manipulative in the book, where Anakin would say things like he was unsure and that it was hard because he was a Jedi for so long, then Palpatine would say that it basically came down to him choosing between the Jedi and Padme. This was where Anakin basically accepted his new role as Sith Lord and Sidious told him to wipe out the Jedi at the Temple and then to go to Mustafar to the secret base where the Separatist Leadership remained. As Anakin marched to the Jedi temple with the 501st clones, which later on became Vader’s Fist, they left no creature alive as Sidious ordered for him to do in the novel.  So obviously as we can see, the gate Master was killed within an instant. Now you’re probably wondering who this Jurokk. Well he’s a bit of a funny story, see he was in the revenge of the Sith novel, then he was in the the complete Star Wars encyclopedia in 2008, but later he was retconned in 2012 to ever have appeared in revenge of the Sith. Which is true, he never was in the movie, but he was in the book and remains in print to this day. So I find it a bit confusing as to why he was plucked out in 2012 randomly. Jurokk was trusted to watch over the defense of the Jedi Temple as the Gate Master.
