Vuntar Greth

Jedi Master Vuntar Greth was born on a Vahla vessel in the Mid Rim in 36 BBY. Like his people, he was raised to hate the Jedi for robbing him of his homeworld. During his early years, he was taught to be a pilot In 27 BBY, his family's vessel was destroyed by a rival pirate gang. The rivals stranded Greth on Myrkr.

After several years of surviving, alone, against vornskrs and other predators, Greth met a Neti Jedi Master, Bid Otar. The Neti had been hiding on Myrkr to escape the Jedi Purge. Otar and Greth survived together, leading Greth to respect Otar and the Jedi in general. For over thirty years, Otar trained Greth to be a Jedi. Greth became enamored with the Jedi pursuit of peace, seeing in it a loftier goal than discovering one's homeworld. Although a part of him would always long to find the home of his people, he began to seek peace instead of war. With Otar's instruction, he became an excellent diplomat.

In 9 ABY, the Empire infiltrated the planet. During one of their expeditions, they discovered Otar and killed him. Greth, with Otar's lightsaber, escaped the planet and joined a smuggling crew as a pilot. He used his experience hiding from vornskrs and observing ysalamiri to develop the techniques of a Jedi Shadow.

In 15 ABY, Greth joined the new Jedi Order on Onderon, and later moved to Ossus. In 18 ABY, he was made a member of the Council of Reconciliation and was sent to Midpoint Station for the Inter-Galactic Government Summit.
