Tehlvin Ohmidarr

Childhood

• Born to parents Jaediq and Landia Ohmidarr, both archaeologists with the Great University Quarter of Coruscant.
  • They specialized in the study of lost civilizations, with an emphasis on the Rakata and the Kwa of Dathomir.
• Spent most of his childhood in their family home in the luxurious collegiate district where they lived, or aboard the Erudite, his parent's home-away-from-home which served as their base of operations for various explorations and archaeological digs.
  • His childhood memories of the ship involve lots of time playing with the excavator and archeological droids the family maintained.
• When he was six years old, his parents were exploring a set of Rakatan ruins on Dathomir when they ran afoul of a pack of rancors.
  • Unfortunately, his father did not make it back to the ship.
  • His mother did, and tried to lift off, but before she could get the engines running, the big pack-mother of the rancors tore into a side of the ship, damaging its lift capabilities.
  • The ship took off, only to crash again nearby, the pack of rancors hot on its tail. They began to tear into the damaged ship.
  • Tehlvin's mother was either killed or rendered unconscious by the crash.
  • Tehlvin was saved by a canny archaeology droid who loaded the boy into an escape pod and fired it away from the ship. It landed in the Rakatan ruins, where Tehlvin hid from the rancors (who seemed loathe to enter the ancient ruins).
• Tehlvin spent the next four years of his life in the ruins.
  • He eventually salvaged
