Deniath Hedges was a Human female born on the world of Taris in 3,996 BBY. She was the child of Jon Hedges and Ruth Hedges, two rich nobles on the world of Taris. Whilst growing up, she often showed signs that the Jedi associated with those who were force sensitive, and her father gave her to the Jedi order. Deniath was trained by Dorak for nine years before becoming a Jedi Knight.
