Early Life
Benn was born on Yavin 4 in the year 2 BBY. His father, a Y-Wing pilot, died in the attack of the first Death Star. His mother took him and fled for the outer rim territories and settled on Tund when the Rebels abandoned Yavin 4 for Hoth.
His mother noticed early on that he had “abilities” and did her best to teach him control and guide his powers.
Adolescent/adult years
Benn and his mother became farmers in the small community of humans that lived on Tund. It was during this time Benn discovered his love for the land and for cooking. Farming taught him the benefits of fresh produce and using fresh ingredients for his cooking.
It was also during this time Benn became a voracious reader, sadly the libraries on Tund did not offer much in the way of Jedi teachings.
Benn's mother died when he was 17 standard years old. After a respectful time of grieving, he set out on a quest for knowledge. Working as a cook or freight handler, Benn hopped star cruisers for different planets. He spent time on OseonVII reading any and everything about the Force. It wasn't much. Two or three other planets later he ended up on Coruscant.
Scavenging what he could, he snuck into the ruins of the Jedi Temple, the great library, any black market information or books, data cubes, anything, he could find.
He learned little in the ways of using his Force abilities. But he did find information on different sword styles and meditation techniques.
Run in with a Sith and coming to New Tython
It was during his time on Coruscant that Benn was approached by a member of the Sith. This master could see the potential in the young man, and the possibility of turning such a naïve Force user. Teasing Benn with the wonders of the Brotherhood, he convinced the young and aspiring Jedi want to be, to go to a planet known as New Tython. Home of a clan of like minded thinkers, ones that believed in the Light side of the Force.
Once Benn arrived on New Tython, his understanding in the ways of the Force expanded immensely.
His final quest while there was to create and master his own lightsaber.
Life in the Brotherhood
Benn survived the invasion and destruction of New Tython, barely. His grief at not being able to save more of his fellow Jedi or to find a way to convince
