Biography
Not much is known of his childhood before joining the Jedi Order, but like most Jedi who were recruited into the Jedi Order at a younger age, so was Tai. He was taken to the Jedi temple, and entered into the academy where he trained alongside many other Jedi hopefuls. He spent the next decade studying the ways of the force, and learning the Jedi Code. After graduating from the academy a little earlier than some, he was selected as a Palawan by a Jedi master and they traveled the galaxy, working to complete his training. After working on multiple fronts alongside his Master, the Jedi Council recognized him ready to become a Jedi Knight, and they promoted him. He began working over the next couple of years to improve his corporal prowess, dedicating himself to physical disciplines. He had sought to train independently as a Jedi Guardian. He had become a well respected Knight, though was always under fire for his rebellious nature, and consistent attitude towards authority. A couple of years into his career he had an assignment that would take him to Nar Shaddaa, he had to bust a local trafficking scheme. After waking up on top of a building, from being unconscious, and near death, he found he had no memory of who he was, where he was, or what he had been doing. His connection to the force had become severely weakened, a problem he brought on himself unconsciously. Due to his psychometric abilities he was able to gain some information regarding himself from his lightsaber, but due to the weakness if his connection he was only able to gain bits and pieces. Over the years he used his skills to become a mercenary, finding use with the Jedi training he instinctively had already.
