History

Though known to rival tribes for time beyond record as coastal raiders, the Iwu Tohora of southern Kamuekiko are a tribe only discovered by the Jedi of Clan Odan-Urr in the last decade. From what little archaeological evidence has been found, it is suspected that their people's origins date back to a Harakoan migration from more northern areas of Kamuekiko during the age of the Maia'Toa. Little is known as to why this happened; some speculate climate change was a factor, while others theorize that their Tribal tattoos and marriage practices may have descended from Maia'Toan slave culture.

Located by the Jedi Liam Torun-Urr in 32 ABY, the Tohorans were largely welcoming of the old hermit, whose diplomatic forays opened them to discussion with the Jedi Council; through negotiation and trade, they were able to curtail Tohorans raids and abductions. This would ease their relations with other tribes and allow them to reach out to other groups in peace.

Though their involvement in trade and discourse with other groups would aid them, they would remain largely uninvolved in events that would shape New Tython; the Invasion of New Tython saw their first contact with invaders in the form of a downed Mandalorian fighter, while the events of the Fall of New Tython and its Liberation saw only token involvement as they relied upon their treacherous home terrain and weather patterns to avoid most of the world's attackers. Following the downfall of the Thuron Monarchy, they joined the Treaty of Menat Ombo as part of the Harakoan Tribal Alliance out of pragmatism, rather than loyalty or fear. In modern times, they are quickly becoming an essential trade niche for the fiercely independent, self-reliant Harakoans.
