Legend

this Ebranite worked as a kind of tour guide on the moon of Mina, during the early years of the New Republic, helping pilgrims to the world find their way to Inicus Mont. He was a noted explorer and scout during the early years of the New Order, but Imperial oppression kept him from finding steady employment. He traveled to Mina sometime before the Battle of Yavin to try and establish a colony for his people. This plan never came to fruition, but Groex remained on Mina because of his acceptance among the Vashans. While he helped many pilgrims bypass the more treacherous sections of the path to Inicus Mont, he ensured that visitors were not allowed to use vehicles or ships to reach the sacred place, since the journey to Inicus Mont was as much a spiritual experience as the pillar itself. Despite this belief, Groex maintained four Z-95 Headhunters, a set of ships he had hoped to use as a defense force for his Ebranite colony.
