Dylan Wan-Arden

"One must never let pride nor ambition take hold of them, that is the path to the dark side..."

 was a legendary Jedi Grand Master during the early years of the New Republic. He was widely known throughout the galaxy for his uniquely impressive abilities with the force. From his humble beginnings, and because of his humble ways, nobody expected him to be able to master the force nor become a Jedi. However, when Luke Skywalker plucked him off of his home world of Katari, he noticed something in him, something... Extraordinary.

Early life
Dylan Wan-Arden was born around the time of the Battle Of Yavin, during the rebellion against the Galactic Empire. His parents, both Rebels, were killed in action shortly after his birth. A close family friend, San Lorinthian, took the child in to raise him on Katari, home world of the Katarians. Dylan was known to be very intelligent, but not necessarily special in any way, yet...

Dylan waited 15 years, aspiring for something more. The fall of the Empire had created many new opportunities, the establishment of the New Republic in 5 ABY had launched a new era of peace, prosperity and hope. However, Dylan and his adoptive father were broke and penniless. Dylan felt he may never go further than a mere beggar on the streets of an isolated, far off world.
