Kaurig was born to Petro and Audril Caalim in 572 ABY. He was raised in the heights of upper Coruscant and led a comfortable childhood in a sparkling flat that spiked up into the planet's exosphere. His only regret was that for most of his childhood his father was away at war. The loss of Flight Officer Caalim and Defenestration would backfire on the Xenos. The Neo-Imperial fleet, spurred into ferocity by the brutal assassination of its commander, arrived early and routed the Xenos 14th Space Corps, then Base Delta Zeroed Kessel into a chunk of charred radioactive waste.
