| Born to Bith immigrants on Karufr. Raised in a family of scientists. Locked up in his father's private study A LOT, causing him to read various books - including those more military in nature.

Was found to possess a very analytic mind which saw him being forcefully shoved into TMI where he was drilled into becoming a soldier. While picking up the skills to kill others, he became even more of a pacifist. His unrelenting conviction to stop wars, save innocents and soldiers alike was found laughable but useful by some seasoned Dark Jedi which put him in charge of a support/medical vessel.

History Overview
Born to Bith immigrants on Karufr. Odbris was raised in a family of scientists who focused all of their attention on furthering medical technologies. As a child, Odbris was frequently left to his own devices as his family kept their focus solely on their research. Whenever he spoke up to them about this, he would be locked up in his father's private study as a way for his parents to escape their nagging son. His father's study was however a vast library containing vast sources of information on an equally vast amount of topics. Like most children, Odbris had a fascination for dangerous occupations, such as law and military forces. This led him to study whatever information he could find in his father's study.
As a young adult, he would study abroad on Taruma. Here he became involved in a discussion with a military officer over tactics, strategies, and the tasks of the military. When a Dark Jedi of Taldryan caught rumors of a brilliant Bith strategist, Nara was immediately scouted and persuaded to join the armed forces. His remarkable high score on his enlistment exam enabled the Bith to immediately join the Katarn Academy of the TMI. It was also during this time that the Bith's knowledge and acumen for unconventional tactics was fully discovered. It was also here where he became more and more of a pacifist. His unrelenting conviction to stop wars, save innocents - and soldiers, was found laughable but useful by TalSOC, who stationed him aboard a support/medical vessel.

The members of the Strategic Operations Council would reward the Bith with a "promise"; the promise of being able to make a difference for those under his command.

Captain Odbris still serves as the commanding officer of the VIN Valor in the naval forces.
