- "My parents died during the great Toli-X outbreak."
- ―V-Davi
Toli-X was a mutated virus that spread from planet to planet through asteroid mold, contaminating many worlds around 54 BBY. Though lethal to Humans if untreated, the Toli-X infection could be cured by a vaccine created shortly after the virus appeared. During a mission to Kegan[1] in 44 BBY,[2] Jedi Padawans Siri Tachi and Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered that the planet had had a severe outbreak of Toli-X seven years prior, but had never learned of the vaccine because of their isolationist government. The parents of V-Davi, a local boy Tachi and Kenobi became acquainted with, had died of the virus when V-Davi was two years old. To save him from unnecessary grief, the Jedi apprentices decided not to reveal that a cure against Toli-X had been developed.[1]

The Toli-X virus was first mentioned in The Fight for Truth (2000), the ninth installment in the Jedi Apprentice series of young reader novels by Jude Watson.[1] In 2008, Toli-X was given an entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia.[3]
