Legend

this ancient Ithorian male was the leader of a small band of envionrmentalists who lived deep in the jungles of their homeworld of Ithor, communing with nature and monitoring the lifecycle of the Mother Jungle. Although completely blind, the Oracle was able to move about in the temple where he lived, and never seemed to miss a step while walking through the surrounding jungles. During the height of the New Order, the Oracle was greatly concerned about the Imperial presence on Ithor, but found himself powerless to do anything about it. His ability to "hear" what the jungle around him was saying only made it harder for the Oracle to accept their advice, which was to seek peace with the Imperials, despite the fact that it was the Imperials who were destroying the jungles. In fact, it was the Imperials who blinded the Oracle and left him for dead, after he refused to help them learn about the Bafforr trees.
