Mi-Gaul Jinn

Mi-Gaul Jinn was a Jedi Master from Malastare. He was known to be amiable and humorous, though wise and well-reasoned in serious situations. He was accepted on the Jedi Council of the New Jedi Order at a young age because of his traits of easily being agreeable and skillful. Though he did not know it for much of his life, Mi-Gaul was a distant relative to a Jedi Master of the Old Republic, Qui-Gon Jinn.

Early Life
Mi-Gaul Jinn was born on Malastare to a poor family, and was sent to an orphanage run by a Dug. There, Mi-Gaul befriended the owner of the orphanage by proving to be a skilled podracer. Mi-Gaul earned large sums of money winning various local podraces for the orphanage, and was therefore a favorite of the Dug.

Acceptance into the Jedi Academy
Mi-Gaul boasted to be the only human who could podrace, and attracted jealousy of a certain Gran that was being supported by the funds of the orphanage. The Gran, thinking that far too much attention was being devoted to the human and none to himself, sought a way to rid of the young boy.

During one of Mi-Gaul's annual medical checkup, the medical droid was testing a Midi-chlorian count device in the region. The results tested positive, showing that Mi-Gaul was Force-sensitive. The Gran who wanted to rid of Mi-Gaul was allowed into into the medical records of the boy to hopefully find something that could be taken adventage of. The Force-sensitivity feature was found among the records, and the Gran had the idea of sending Mi-Gaul to Luke Skywalker's Jedi Praxeum.

The Gran offered the proposal to Mi-Gaul himself, making sure the owner of the orphanage was not present until Mi-Gaul made his final decision. The boy heard only of the wonderful, desirable adventures Jedi have, and their honorable passion of doing what is right. Mi-Gaul enthusiastically agreed to take a space bus to the Yavin system and contact Luke Skywalker. The Dug owner of the orphanage reluctantly let him go, having a great resentment for the Jedi Order and the Gran afterwards.

The bus was sent off for GemDiver Station in orbit around the gas giant Yavin, and the ship entered the system. The bus, however, did not actually have safety clearance to travel at interstellar distances, and the shield generator was not effective enough to keep a micrometeor from penetrating the hull. The captain of the space bus sent a distress signal, which was picked up by a certain family starship from Haruun Kal. The passengers of the starship were none other than Medicio Kindoo and his family, bringing the boy to the Jedi Academy for his first training session.
