Background: A Mirialan female, Vernestra Rwoh was born around the year 248 BBY. She joined the Jedi Order at a young age, eventually becoming the Padawan of Jedi Master Stellan Gios. Vernestra was enough of a prodigy that she eventually attained the rank of Jedi Knight at the age of only fifteen, making her the youngest Knight in a generation.

A few months later, during which time she had turned sixteen, Rwoh is tasked with her first proper assignment — taking care of twelve-year-old aspiring inventor Avon Starros during Starros’ time at Port Haileap. Rwoh operated under the supervision of the outpost’s marshal, Jedi Master Douglas Sunvale. Although Avon’s mother, Senator Ghirra Starros, has sent her daughter to the remote spaceport to get her out of trouble and to make her appreciate her life on Coruscant more, Vernestra believes that being at Port Haileap only gives Avon more opportunities to do whatever she wants. Vernestra likes Avon and finds her inventions fascinating, but the two often butt heads due to Avon’s dislike of authority. Avon is accompanied by her protocol droid, J-6. While at Port Haileap, Vernestra had a dream about a new design for her lightsaber which would also allow it to become a lightwhip. After completing the modification that very night, Vernestra keeps her weapon’s new design secret, practicing with the whip in private and not telling either Master Sunvale or her former Master Gios.

Master Sunvale eventually requests that Avon and Vernestra join the passengers of the starship Steady Wing, which was taking the Dalnan delegation — including Ambassador Weft and his son Honesty — to the dedication ceremony of the new space station Starlight Beacon. Although Avon would not play any official role on the journey and her mother had not sent for her, Sunvale hoped that she would befriend the ambassador’s son Honesty, who was the same age, and ease the Dalnans’ concerns about the Galactic Republic. Vernestra also hoped that Avon and Honesty would become friends, as she felt that Avon needed one.

On a last walk around the port prior to departure, the young Jedi Knight finds Avon messing around with a homemade scoot speeder, catching her in midair with the Force and chiding her for not being on-board. After the arrival of J-6, the three head for the Steady Wing. As they are about to board, Vernestra has a sudden and foreboding feeling about an Aqualish mechanic who is one of several workers tinkering with the ship, but she tries to dismiss the feeling as it seems to be misplaced. After the cruiser’s departure, bombs detonate aboard. While the older Jedi onboard try to get the situation under control, Vernestra evacuates via a shuttle a group of younger passengers including Avon, J-6, Honesty, and Sunvale’s Padawan Imri Cantaros. They are subsequently stranded on the jungle moon Wevo.

Vernestra Rwoh is a Mirialan female with green skin, dark hair, and blue eyes. Vernestra bears the tattooed markings of her family: six tiny black diamonds stacked in two rows of three on the outside corner of each eye. She is compassionate and devoted to the ways of the Jedi. Although Vernestra finds her charge Avon exasperating at times, she enjoys her company and wants to get to know the young inventor better. Vernestra’s prodigious talent, which vaulted her to the rank of Knight at an unusually young age, leaves her in an unusual position; she is still maturing and learning to deal with her rank. This uncertainty, however, leads
