| - Tyen Shi had come to the Jedi shortly after he was born. He trained under a missionary Jedi named Master Sho until he was old enough to take on the responsibilities of a padiwan. Arriving on Naboo he was first met by Spark Valen, and later turned over to Drake Valen. Under his tutilage Tyen developed as a saber duelist, a fighter pilot, and a healer. Initially engaging in regular Jedi activities, Tyen engaged in a project mapping the Outer Rim with the astromech R2-E4. Noting a minor variance, Eefor proceeded to engage in a major maintenance cycle. As a result, it was a long time before Tyen was able to return to Jedi service. During a mission to Dagobah, Tyen had the misfortune to encounter a sentient manifestation of the Dark Side which described itself as Legion, then as Nemesis. Through wisdom and luck Tyen managed to capture the being within his lightsaber's crystals, at which point he discarded the weapon to avoid its corrupting influence. Along the way he collected an R5 astromech which was left alone for so long it no longer remembered its registry. With nothing to go on, Tyen simply called it Arfyve. Tyen has taken on a number of padiwan students over the years, the most recent success being Evangeline Sauniere. He has made a point of taking these students to the Jedi Outpost on Dathomir, away from Naboo, the crowds, and the constant threat of Sith invasion.
