Biography
Altisian Jedi
Around 25 BBY, the Altisian Jedi apprentice Mars LaRone fell to the Dark side. Eris teamed up with LaRone's Master, Kuallue, to end the threat, but not before LaRone could kill Kuallue's other apprentice, Clees.[3]
Jedi Purge
In 18 BBY, Eris and his wife, Callista Masana, brought the Ismaren children to Plett's Well. Once he found out about the Eye of Palpatine, he and Callista departed aboard a Y-Wing Starfighter to search for it in the Moonflower Nebula.[1]
Thanks to research by the Sons and Daughters of Freedom, they were able to set the Y-Wing Starfighter to transmit the IFF signal used by TIE Fighters, thus preventing the Eye from attacking them. However, they were attacked by manned TIE Fighters and forced to land inside.[1]
Geith was quickly spooked and became insistent on turning back. Their Y-Wing was damaged, but they found a GAT-12 Skipray Blastboat in the hangar, which he wanted to steal and use to warn Djinn Altis and So Plett. Callista refused to come with him, intended to sacrifice herself to sabotage the Eye. Geith went anyway and was shot down when he attempted his escape.[1]
Personality and Traits
Geith had pale skin, broad cheekbones, and a beard. He was caring, good with children, and eager to quickly fix problems.[1] He resented the structure of the Jedi Order, but he was quick to sympathize and ally with them after Order 66.[1]
