Galen was a short stocky Radnoran, with curly brown hair and very muscular legs. He was a scientist and weapons engineer who lived in the years prior to the Clone Wars.

BiographyEdit

Along with his sister Curi, Galen worked in a weapons factory, developing deadly new weapons for Radnor.

After creating a particularly dangerous toxin, Dol Heep, an ambassador from the neighboring world of Avon, demanded that his world have exclusive rights to it, offering large sums of money to have it.

Galen seemed eager to sell it to the Avoni and collect payment. However, due to the Radnoran's longstanding distrust for the Avoni, Curi convinced him to refuse the offer. Galen was upset and soon he was contacted by a furious Dol Heep. After promising him riches beyond anything he could dream of, Dol Heep had Galen unleash the toxin on his homeworld. It killed millions of citizens in the city of Aubendo and was soon heading for the city of Tacto.

After many of Radnor's government officials fled the planet in panic, Galen assumed control of the evacuation effort as the coordinator of the rescue effort. After a team of Jedi led by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Soara Antana, Ry-Gaul, and Siri Tachi (and their apprentices) arrived on Radnor to help with the evacuation process, Galen quickly sent the Masters to the Isolation Sector, where they couldn't return because of the risk of them bringing back the toxin. Underestimating the Padawans, Galen was proven guilty of allying with the Avoni in helping them take over Radnor after all of its citizens had fled the planet.

By the end of the crisis, Galen was brought into custody by the Jedi. His sister, Curi, was enraged at the crimes he committed and let him rot in prison.
