[edit] Biography
Tariq had had a past relationship of some kind with Leia Organa Solo, as they called each other by their first names, instead of using the surnames and/or titles.
Once the Yuuzhan Vong began attacking planets, Rhinnal decided to accept refugees from these planets. Rhinnal easily accepted ten thousand refugees from Ord Mantell but, while doing so, it had to strain its resources "to the breaking point". Two thousand more refugees where redirected to Ruan as soon as Tariq discovered that Ruan was accepting (and even more, asking for) refugees.
Leia Organa Solo came to Rhinnal the following day with six thousand more exilees from Gyndine. Tariq greeted her from channel four and was as gentle as he could be due to the circumstances. Tariq explained Organa Solo his situation, suggested her to try Ruan and asked for her forgiveness.
