| - Born in 4 BBY, Ar'i N'joo was born on Dathomir. A member of the Flowing River Clan, she was brought up in the normal fashion for a Witch of Dathomir. Her mother was the captain of the guard for the Clan's stronghold and Ar'i was taught how to fight and survive from an early age. Also trained in Allyan Magic, she showed a natural aptitude for the ability. As she grew up, she made the rules and guidelines of the Book of Law her own and followed them to the best of her ability. As she grew up, Ar'i attained a much more intimate connection with the Force, and displayed an ability to use the magic of the Witches of Dathomir that rivaled some of their clans' leaders. It was well known by the time she reached her early teens that she would be one of the Flowing River Clan's future leaders and someone who would help them achieve a greater name amongst the other clans on Dathomir. She continued to progress in her studies and became one of the Clan's greatest warriors. Once she reached her twenties, she knew that it was time for her to start looking for a husband. She wanted to find a strong man who would be able to handle the pressure that would be in her life, though she didn't know where she would find someone like that. She knew that her future was one of importance within the tribe due to her mother's social status. Her mother knew this as well and knew she had to help her daughter find the right mate. She counseled her on different men in the tribe and other tribes, but Ar'i didn't want any of them. She felt that an off worlder would suit her better, as it would allow her to bring more wealth into the clan through any off world contacts he had. Ar'i, being a stubborn person, was dead set on this course of action and refused to listen to any reason regarding a different choice. Eventually she came to realize that she would be hard pressed to find a husband that way. Few people came to Dathomir in the first place and fewer still came to where the Flowing River Clan called home. Then the odds of the extreme few that came to her planet actually being male, single, and around her age were also something that worked against her. She put the thoughts in the back of her head as the Clan began to go through problems with a rival clan. These problems would stew for over a couple years.
