Tarvin Calaan

"I love to go fast, fly, blow things up, my wife and kids, and to liberate galaxy from tyranny, in that order. It's a Calaan thing."

- Tarvin Calaan joking with his squadron mates

Tarvin Calaan was a Human male born and raised on Alderaan, although, he spent most of his life on Naboo. He was the adopted son of Tristan Calaan and didn't meet his birth mother, Karen Orvan, until he was almost thirty. He was married to childhood friend, Larena Vaal and was the father of Jedi Knight Brin Calaan and GA fighter pilots Dirrax and Nerric Calaan.

Early Life
Tarvin Calaan was born on Alderaan in 18 ABY to a homeless and creditless Karen Orvan. Karen who was only 19 years old at the time knew she didn't have the ability to adequetly care for Tarvin and as a result made what she would later say to be the most difficult decision of her life; to put her son up for adoption. Wanting the best life possible for her son, Karen was able to approach Bail Organa after he made a public speech in one of Aldera's parks and ask for his help in finding Tarvin a home. Organa, who pitied the young women, agreed to help. He eventually settled on Tristan Calaan as the best candidate. Tristan was initially reluctant but eventually gave into Bail. When Tristan first held Tarvin, the love he felt for his new son was so great that the two almost immediately formed a mild Force Bond which actually passed some of Tristan's force potential on to his son. Although, this Force would not show up in Tarvin, it would surface in his daughter, Brin.
