Caminus al-Amel was an Arkanian Jedi Knight and soldier of the New Republic. Only becoming a Padawan at the onset of the Clone Wars, Caminus spent much of his youth escaping from Stormtroopers and Darth Vader with a clan of younglings (including Niobe Letto and Zeth Amphion) led by Jedi Master Orem Heb, which he took command of after the Jedi Master's death on Jabiim. Following that, he and the clan joined the Rebel Alliance and subsequently the New Republic.
