| - Beld Yulan was a male Tarro individual who served as a mercenary during the Republic Dark Age, operating from the starship Perspicacity as a general. The death of his children drove him to despair and desperation, setting him on a course that would lead him to join the Odionate, a Sith death cult founded by Sith Lord Odion, who ruled a section of the Grumani sector. Due to his military skills, Yulan rapidly rose through the ranks of the Odionate military and quickly developed a notoriety for pursuing suicide wave tactics which contributed to heavy attritional losses among the ranks of Odion's forces. Yulan led several of Odion's military campaigns including the Battle of Gazzari, the Skarpos campaign, and the Invasion of Sarrassia. Due to Yulan's faithful devotion to Odion's nihilistic philosophy, he became a personal favorite of the Sith Lord. In 1032 BBY, Yulan became involved in Odion's campaign to recover the Helm of Ieldis, a powerful Sith artifact capable of driving large numbers of sentient beings into a homicidal frenzy. In the process, Yulan became acquainted with the Jedi Knight Kerra Holt who had infiltrated the Novitiates under the pseudonym "Mercy". While the two initially had an acrimonious relationship due to "Mercy's" concern with preserving life, relations between the two subsequently improved especially after "Mercy" saved his life during the Second Battle of Skarpos. While "Mercy" was eventually unmasked as a Jedi infiltrator, Yulan still respected her for taking a great risk in infiltrating the Odionate to find her long-lost parents. Yulan also became disillusioned with Odion for his nihilistic tactics which led to a high rate of attrition among his troops. After Odion planned to use the Helm to harness the negative emotions of the child captives within the cloister on Vanahame—a planet-size mega orphanage— to unleashed a galactic apocalypse, Kerra managed to successfully convince Yulan to abandon his Sith ways and to save the lives of other sentient beings. At the eleventh hour, Yulan personally thwarted Odion's death ritual by freeing the child captives from their bubble prisons, causing the Helm to overload and explode, killing Lord Odion. Following the collapse of the Odionate, the two former enemies would work together to single-handedly evacuate thousands of the liberated child inmates to the Galactic Republic.
