Lukas Shimra

Lukas Shimra was a Jedi during the waning years of the Galactic Republic and later an Imperial Inquisitor.

Jedi
According to the biography of Lady Shynne, Lukas Shimra was born on a world known as Pesdira. (She notes that she could not locate the planet on any map or chart, leading her to presume Shimra was lying). He was brought up by a poor family. His father was executed by the local government, and his mother commited suicide. Lukas' brother fled the planet leaving Shimra alone.

Lukas was then found by two Jedi, who happened to be there on a mission. They sensed him, and he was quickly sent back to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant in 21 BBY. However, with the Clone Wars raging, there was a major shortage of Jedi Knights, or Masters to accept him as a Padawan. He was instead taught by Cin Drallig in a large class of other learners.

However, mere days before the Battle of Coruscant, Lukas celebrated his 13th Birthday. He was uncerimoniously sent from the temple, to join the Agricultural Corps.

He traveled to Gap Nine, to survey the local swamps, and take samples back to the Temple. He was accompionied by another Jedi, named Feyn Kero, a Twi'lek. They arrived at Gap Nine, but their ship malfunctioned, and they couldn't buy any spare parts (their Jedi skills lacking). However, they found an ancient Jedi temple, containing a massive library.

News reached them of the destruction of the Republic and the Jedi. Shimra and Kero decided to settle down on Gap Nine and go into exile.

Inquisitorius
In 11 BBY, the Galactic Empire arrived on Gap Nine. They tore down the temple and raided it. A stormtrooper captian found the two Jedi hiding. Shimra prepared for a fight. However, Lady Shynne happened to be overseeing the mission. She sensed the two Jedi and captured them, taking the duo back to Prakith with her.

She began to train them, inside the Citadel Inquisitorius. Lukas became engrossed in the Dark Side and it's history. However, Feyn Kero was more stubbon and refused to learn. Shynne repeatedly tortured her, until she eventually killed herself. Shimra, now so absorbed in the Dark Side, felt nothing for his best friends death. He instead doubled his efforts in his training. In 5 BBY he became an Inquisitor.

Lukas was not a famed Inquisitor. He spent most of his time in the libraries and archives of the Citadel Inquisitorius. He occasionaly traveled offworld on "buisness".

In 0 BBY, Emperor Palpatine personnaly visited him. He promoted him to Chief Inquisitor and he was to travel to Oppule to safeguard the Emperor's Retreat.
