Temap was first recruited to the Jedi Order shortly after the construction of the Academy on Onderon. Weak in the Force, he had difficulty with training and considered leaving the Order until he was taken as a Padawan by Jedi Knight Ashin Varanin.

They went on a handful of missions before encountering Tamzar Ranox and joining him in the Winnowing. Terrified by a close encounter with the Cult of Shadow, Temap killed an unconscious Kishkumen, and was nearly killed by Ranox as a result. Unknown to him, the Cult placed a death mark on his head and those of his family.

While pursuing 'Delana Saan' on Nar Shaddaa, Temap began to sense his family's deaths at the hands of Arox. Not knowing what he felt, he became violently ill. Ashin and Ranox took him to the Temple of the Current. Later that night, Dark Lord Siriss Cortann took him and his Master hostage in the Temple medcentre. Temap was shown a videorecording of his family's death while he himself succumbed to the effects of poison. His death served as a warning about the dangers of disturbing the Cult of Shadow...but it would also unify the Temple of the Current in ways Cortann could not have foreseen.

Personality and Abilities[]

Around Masters, Knights and more senior students, he is very quiet; he is more comfortable around Master Faye Ward.

Temap has begun to learn an obscure branch of Shii-Cho. Its ready stance involves a one-handed grip with wrist inverted to point the blade down. A solid defensive style, it is better suited to sabre combat than blaster deflection, despite the fact that (used right-handed) it only really has two strikes: a quick flick to the enemy's right side; and a whirling overhead cut to the enemy's left side. Both techniques are best suited to decapitation. The style itself is best used to prevent or breach standoff with a superior opponent and enter a closer combat range. It is purely a one-handed form, and thus weak against Form V or a more physically powerful opponent. However, it is well suited to closing with Form IV users. It is risky but effective against Form II.
