BiographyEdit

Yrada Soludisan, like most Jedi of the era, was most likely trained at the Coruscant Jedi Temple after being identified as Force-sensitive near birth. Graduating the Temple academy and eventually passing the Trials of Knighthood, Soludisan was elevated to the rank of Jedi Knight by the Jedi High Council.^[1]

When the Separatist Crisis broke out between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Soludisan was called before the High Council to accept a mission. The Council informed Soludisan that the Confederacy had been in contact with the Pirates of Iridium in the Atrivis sector and were planning to steal shipments of spice from a host of Republic convoys. Under the leadership of Jedi Masters Kit Fisto and Belsed-Qan Idan, Soludisan and several other Jedi accompanied a task force of Judicial Department agents aboard the Republic cruiser Monitor III'. Protected by a number of Jedi-piloted starfighters, the Jedi were ambushed immediately after coming out of hyperspace.^[1]

Surprised by the Pirates' powerful weaponry, augmented by their unique gem technology, the 'Monitor III sustained heavy damage, killing many Judiciaries and three Jedi Knights. Among the dead were Jedi Aruden Kej, Dovish Hokken, and Soludisan. The Monitor III survived the skirmish and was able to return to Coruscant without any further casualities, though the mission was deemed a failure.^[1]
