Tamander Dawncaller’s family owned the Dawncaller Ranch near the Khoonda plains on Dantooine. With his father inheriting the bol ranch and his mother from the Sylo family, Tam has farming in his blood. Tam always felt stifled in such a lifestyle, and spent much of the first 14 years of his life exploring the surrounding countryside with his only friend, a small white fabool named Mr. Mace.
