BIOGRAPHY
Born on the outer rim world of New Alderran to a pair of Cathar immigrants who had a litter of six, Novaron Rah’s parents were survivors of numerous pirate raids as they fled from planet to planet escaping the madness that ensued outside of both the New Reppublic and the Free World Allliance. Settling on New Alderran happened by chance as the vessel that had been fleeing the devastation caused to their small village on Oseon VII had experienced engine malfunctions which caused the ship to drop out of hyperspace above their new home. A wild coincidence, it seemed, as the planet they had mistakenly discovered welcomed them with open arms and soon the family became well established in the prosperous city of New Aldera.
Nova’s father turned to learning how to fix ships and droids while his mother, crafty as she was, typically could be found weaving clothes and blankets for other immigrants as they arrived, wishing to show them the same acceptance and hospitality that was shown to them. Of the six children his mother bore, Nova was the youngest and always proved himself to be the wildest of his littermates. While he wasn’t prone to violence or mischief, Nova did frequently find himself being told to sit down and relax as he was terrible for getting under the skin of both of his parents. They struggled teaching him patience as he was always more concerned with what came next, but his father soon realised that this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing and figured maybe mechanic work would be enough to distract his son. Bringing him to work with him, Nova soon began to learn the trade by the age of fourteen. While his father had leagues of experience beyond him, the young Cathar picked up on things quite easily as was soon able to work in the shop unsupervised and began to bring in another source of income for the family. It wouldn’t take long before Nova even surpassed his father in skill, though he never allowed himself to admit as much.
By the time of his twentieth birthday, a Jedi Knight had come to New Alderran in search of Force Sensitive individuals who wished to come and join the new Order and scoured the city but came up empty handed. It wasn’t until this human Jedi, Guranik Donishiva, had come to the family shop for some routine maintenance before departing back to Ajan Kloss that he found the young, hyperactive Cathar. As Nova worked away on the Jedi’s personal fighter, Donishiva found himself to be amazed that Nova would not only talk and work but maintained eye contact with the Jedi while he tinkered away. Very rarely did the young man observe what he was doing and yet he performed each task to near perfection. Asking him about this and if it was something he did often, Nova simply dismissed it as experience guiding his actions. Unconvinced, Donishiva decided to stay on New Alderran and would follow the Cathar for many days.
Time and time again, Nova would perform his mechanical duties without every paying much attention to what he was doing. At times, the Jedi would even catch the Cathar reading while he worked or watching the holonet broadcasts and decided that he needed to test his capabilities. Confronting him once more, Donishiva asked Nova if he would submit to a blood test and upon his acceptance, the Jedi’s suspicions were confirmed as the M-count in his blood supported his theory; Nova could be trained in the Jedi ways. Though at first the Cathar did not want to leave his family behind, he eventually agreed to join Guranik and was taken to Ajan Kloss where he trained under the Jedi Knight before finally rising to the ranks of Jedi Knight himself.
After his trials many years after leaving New Alderran, Nova was no longer the energetic young man he once was. Now he had become a selfless, calm, collected and devout member of the Order. Taking it upon himself to explore the edges of the galaxy, the Knight explored the fringes of known space in search of Jedi artifacts from ages past but now that the Sith have returned, he has shifted his focus to ensuring the peace that the galaxy has found is not thrown into turmoil.
