A wise Jedi Master and Jedi Council member at the time of the Clone Wars. Notably, Ki was one of the only members of the Jedi Council that was not ranked as a master when he was elected to that governing board. He was invited into the Council after the fall of Master Micah Giett during the Yinchorri conflict, at the urging of Master Mace Windu who was not keen on the other candidate being considered at that time, namely Master Qui-Gon Jinn. Hailing from the planet Cerea, he survived the Battle of Geonosis, fighting alongside other such luminaries as Yoda and Mace Windu.

Master Ki was once the apprentice of the enigmatic Jedi master known as the Dark Woman, but he later came under the tutelage of Yoda. For a brief time during the Clone Wars, Ki-Adi-Mundi took over as Anakin Skywalker's master when Obi-Wan Kenobi was presumed dead after the Battle of Jabiim.

Ki-Adi-Mundi was part of a Jedi strike force (group consisting of Master Daakman Barrek, Padawan Sha'a Gi, Tarr Seirr, K'Kruhk, Aayla Secura and Shaak Ti) that went to Hypori to destroy a droid factory. Unfortunately, their ship was shot out of the sky and all surviving clone troopers were killed by super battle droids. General Grievous then made his introduction by attacking the Jedi. Despite the fact that the Jedi outnumbered Grievous, they barely fended off his attacks. Ki-Adi-Mundi, Shaak Ti, Aayla Secura, and K'Kruhk were the only survivors as Daakman Barrek, Sha'a Gi, and Tarr Seirr were killed by Grievous.

Like all Cereans, his binary brain made him extremely logical and insightful, and allowed him to uniquely weigh decisions involving matters of the Force, both light and dark. Also characteristic of his species, his coordination was somewhat impaired, but compensated for by heightened intuition.

Due to a low Cerean birthrate, he was allowed by the Jedi to follow the Cerean custom of polygamous marriage — he had four honor wives and seven daughters who apparently all died in the Clone Wars.

In his two hearts a Jedi, the brave Ki-Adi-Mundi was killed by his clone troopers while he was in command at the planet Mygeeto when Order 66 was executed. He reacted quickly, blocking a few shots and killing some troopers. But, in the end, he was seemingly overpowered by the troopers' repeating blasters.
