History

First Sightings

Very little is known of this enigmatic figure who in recent months has revolutionized the social atmosphere on New Tython. Known by the name Cy Thuron although this is assumed to be an alias. It is unknown of how or when Cy made the journey to New Tython but is reputed to have lived in the bush and forests outside the settlement which eventually became Menat Ombo as early as 17 ABY.

The figure has remained relatively silent for a number of years living as an isolationist in various areas of wilderness particularly around and in a small cave system located by the Sabina River. The cave system and what is believed to be Cy's dwelling was rediscovered by the Acolytes of Urr in 36 ABY. Early reports from settling colonists claimed initially a creature would stalk the encampments at night. The settlers believing the creature would eventually overcome its curiosities and threaten the camp set out on hunting parties to track what they believed to be a nocturnal predator. Although only food and supplies were stolen the settlers wantonly pursued the animal. Eventually it was discovered the creature was no animal but a man starved and destitute barely living off the wilderness.

The early settlers claimed to have given the man food and work although he soon disappeared afterwards without a trace. Surviving settlers from the camp say that the bushman was quiet and soft spoken although he spoke galactic basic fluently. A few years passed and the area which eventually became Menat Ombo grew into the capital city. The streets and various boroughs spread out growing over the countryside. The activity of the bustling new city drove off the bushman into the wilds further north of the area. Tythonians and Harakoans alike would often see Cy roaming the countryside as they passed into the city over the Sabina Bridge. Eventually he earned the moniker The Mad Hermit as a natural response from the local citizens when he was approached speaking incoherently in tongues and warding travelers away from the land near the mud hut he'd built into the side of a hill.

The Mad Hermit

It is unclear what became of the Mad Hermit when Brotherhood forces brought war to the peaceful planet. What is known however is that following the end of the war and reconstruction Cy finally emerged from his self-imposed isolation as a critic of the Jedi government. Using his unique notoriety Cy became a magnet for Menat Ombo's conscience. Nearly overnight the hermit garnered a wide array of supporters who backed Cy's extreme stance.

Over the next few weeks Cy's following and support surged comprising nearly a fourth of the entire civilian populace. Holding demonstrations in the Visulu Market Forum Cy used his position to openly challenge the new government. In response to the upstart the Jedi recognized their responsibility and ceded the government to a civilian city council. With this political victory over the Jedi, Cy's agenda switched to a darker tone as he openly confronted the issue of the native and urbanized Harakoans. Seen as savages by the majority of New Tythonians Cy played into their beliefs eliciting from them their hate of the natives to garner even more support. Soon afterwards Cy's supporters had gone from a small albeit steadily growing mob to an entity capable of true disorder.

The extremist capacity of the group was demonstrated at a demonstration in the Forum in response to the new government granting Harakoans equal rights as New Tythonian humans. At the rally the Mad Hermit called for violence against the Harakoans and a lone Harakoan man was murdered by being stoned to death. Rioting erupted pitting Cy's malevolent supporters against the equally influential peace movement headed by New Tythonian farmer turned activist Gideon Varos.

Exile

With an arrest warrant issued Cy disappeared once again bringing peace and calm to Menat Ombo. The respite following the violence was short-lived however when an explosion rocked Ooroo Abbey killing several citizens, Menat Council member Marten and even famed Jedi High Councilor Ji. Sometime later Cy's supporters rallied together forming the secessionist movement The Peoples New Dawn with Ozan Miliet as their leader.

It is currently unknown of Cy's whereabouts although it is speculated that he is being harbored by the New Dawn following their secession from Menat Ombo. The reward for his arrest still stands.
