Vici Ramunee

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Vici Ramunee was a female Human Jedi trainee born on Alderaan more than 4,000 years before the rise of the Galactic Empire.

[edit] Biography

Vici began her Jedi training under Jedi Master Tannis, who while on Alderaan expressed her interest in Vici and her younger brother Veni. Their parents hesitantly allowed the siblings' training; Veni was forced to stay behind a few years while Vici was taken to the Jedi Praxeum on Teya IV.

In 3,999 BBY, 16-year-old Vici reached the end her training as a Padawan under Mistress Tannis. As her final test, she was tasked with traveling alone to the Cave of Truth and to face her "greatest foe" with only the Force as her companion. She set out, but soon sensed someone approaching. It turned out to be Veni who brought her her lightsaber. She refused her weapon, knowing she must follow her instructions if she was to pass her trial and become a Jedi Knight. She told her brother to return to the Praxeum, but he refused, saying he didn't know the way back. With no choice, she brought Veni with her and reached the mountains hours later. There, she sensed a large creature approaching and, with no obvious place to hide or flee, activated her lightsaber to protect her and her brother. The large, monstrous creature, however, turned out to be a Duinuogwuin Jedi Master called Willm Lywin. Lywin, amused by Vici's attempt to "protect" her brother, escorted her and Veni the rest of the way to Cave of Truth, where Vici entered alone. There she faced a number of tests that forced her to overcome her impatience, physical limits, fear, greed, and finally anger. Vici passed her tests.

[edit] Behind the scenes

The names of the Ramunee siblings perhaps derive from Julius Caesar's famous quote "Veni, vidi, vici"—although no known member of the Ramunee family is named Vidi.
