Qui-Gon was a wise Jedi, though he often ignored the Jedi council's advise and such he never made it onto the council itself. He did however train his apprentice; Obi Wan Kenobi very well, ending with him taking the trials, though his taking on of Anakin, was a shortlived task.
He started his career as the Padowan to Count Dooku, but their paths took very different routes, for whilst Dooku turned to the dark side, Qui-Gon became a well respected Jedi and preferred diplomatic solutions to combat.
On what he and Obi Wan thought would be a simple mission, the 2 Jedi went to a Trade Federation ship to discuss a blockade of Naboo, but it soon got nasty, when the Nemoidian leaders realised they were Jedi and sent battle droids to kill them. Of course the ploy failed and the Jedi escaped, but this started the initial conflict between the Trade Fed and the Republic, culminating in a battle between droids and the Gungans.
The Trade Federation planned to kidnap Queen Amidala, to force her to sign a treaty to promote the expansion of the Trade Fed's opportunities, but the Jedi became her loyal protectors. Then, as the Trade Fed put their plan in motion, a new opponent appeared to take on the Jedi. He was a Sith.
The Sith; Darth Maul, gave the 2 Jedi a tough battle and using his skills to separate the pair, the battle culminated in Maul defeating the older Jedi. Obi Wan was furious and raced to face Maul alone. He too was nearly beaten, as he fell into a shaft, but he used a force jump, to leap to safety and with one well placed swipe, he cut the Sith in half.
Obi Wan bent down to his master and Qui Gon gave Obi Wan a last request, to train Anakin, who he had earlier discovered and promised he would be a Jedi. Obi Wan agreed then Qui-Gon drew his final breath.
