Oppo Rancisis was portrayed by Jerome Blake in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace and Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.

Born some 174 years before the Battle of Naboo, this Thisspain Jedi Master served as a member of the Jedi Council shortly before the Clone Wars. Rancisis had no legs, and moved about on a repulsor chair. He had green skin, long fingers tipped with sharp nails, and a mass of flowing white hair. Oppo was trained as a Jedi by Yaddle, and was skilled in the art of Malacia. Oppo once inherited the leadership of the Monarchy of Thisspias when, at the age of twenty, his sister was murdered. However, he declined the position in order to pursue his studies of the Force. Among the Jedi Council, he was known for his skills in battle planning and strategy. His fleet strategies were invaluable during the Stark Hyperspace Conflict, as well as the Clone Wars that plunged the galaxy into turmoil.

Because of his age and his physical stature, Master Rancisis was one of the handful of Jedi Council members who remained on Coruscant during the Clone Wars. Some thirty months after the Battle of Geonosis, it was Master Rancisis who presided over the trial of Quinlan Vos. Based on the testimonies of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, not to mention Quinlan's own defense, Master Rancisis agreed to allow Quinlan to rejoin the Jedi Order. Shortly afterward, Master Rancisis asked Vos to serve as his second-in-command on a mission to Saleucami, where they hoped to locate Master Tholme and destroy the cloning facilities established on the planet by Sora Bulq. It was on Saleucami that Master Rancisis' skills as a tactician came to the fore, as it was his battle meditation that allowed the Republic's forces to gain several early victories.

However, in a bold move, the Separatist forces launched a direct attack on Master Rancisis' position, forcing him to break out of the battle meditation and defend himself. Although Master Rancisis defeated a horde of Anzati assassins, he was unprepared for the arrival of Sora Bulq. The Dark Jedi silently approached stabbed Rancisis in the chest with a pair of lightsabers, killing Master Rancisis and cutting off his coordination of the Republic's forces on Saleucami.
