Renz, Tyneir
a native of Jiaan, this Jedi Knight held the rank of Colonel in the Old Republic military, and was a veteran of the Clone Wars. He had been a student of anthropology, and studied at Alderaan University, where he met his wife. When Emperor Palpatine rose to power, Renz went into hiding with his family. He also joined the Alliance, staying one step ahead of the Empire while helping to bring about its downfall. Renz later assisted his daughter, Padija Anjeri, during her archeaological excavations. He still carried his lightsaber, using it to protect his daughter. He was injured when Imperial forces tried to block Padija's attempts to return the Nercathi clan's crystallite skulls to them, but soon recovered.
