Gianne Matrye

"You may never see your family again, Gianne. Are you sure you want to follow this path?" "I'm sure, master."

- Adil Jeshron and Gianne Matrye

Gianne Matrye was born on Tatooine two years prior to the Battle of Yavin. She grew up with her two getting-by merchant parents and her brother; unknowing that, at ten years of age, she would learn that she was capable of being a Jedi Knight.

Eight years after the Battle of Yavin, Jedi Knight Adil Jeshron arrived on Tatooine, and not long after found Gianne Matrye. A gifted individual, Gianne agreed to be the Jedi's apprentice, and left her supportive, yet saddened, family behind.

For the next several years, Gianne studied Juyo under her master's tutelage, and picked up the rudimentary concepts of Medium Style as well. She joined her master at travelling to Midpoint Station and, subsequently, the City of the Jedi, where she helped defend the planet from the Xen'Chi. Later, she would go on to become a member of the Guardians of the Force.
