Ooroo was a male Jedi Master whose existence was mentioned in the legendary Qel-Droma Epics. According to the myths, Ooroo managed the Jedi Praxeum on the planet Ossus, training the Jedi Odan-Urr there. Ooroo was involved in the Great Hyperspace War against the Sith Empire, but died during the conflict.[1]

The Ooroo Canyon, a supposed location on Ossus, shared its name with the Jedi Master. Upon the canyon, Odan-Urr oversaw the construction of the Great Jedi Library to honor a promise to Ooroo.[1]
