| abstract | - U'lik Skirata was born in 18bby to Ruusaan Skirata, the only legitimate daughter of the Cuy'val Dar training Sergeant Kal Skirata, and the Jedi Knight Jochis Maynard. As a result U'lik has undeveloped force powers, a trait of which he is currently unaware, just as he is unaware of the fact that his father was, in fact, a Jedi. Jochis had not been on Coruscant when Supreme Chancellor Palpatine gave Order 66, the order to eliminate all Jedi, and therefore escaped the initial blow of the Great Jedi Purge. After his Clone Troopers tried to kill him and he received word of the march on the Jedi Temple led by Anakin Skywalker he went into hiding on his homeworld of Selonia and it was there that he encountered Ruu. The couple fell in love, quickly married and conceived a child... but Jedi were being openly hunted across The Galaxy, not only by the new Galactic Empire but by Bounty Hunters looking for a quick and lucrative contract. And so it was that their fairy tale was not to be. Ruusaan was five months pregnant and returning from the city marketplace when it finally happened; Jochis was discovered by the Empire. She was forced to watch as Stormtroopers of the Imperial 501st Legion dragged Jochis into the street and dropped him before Anakin, now the Sith Lord, Lord Vader. It was very quick for him as Vader used his own Lightsaber to behead her husband. Jochis's own Lightsaber had been long hidden inside the home and Vader never found it, simply leaving the Jedi Knight where he lay. After retrieving the Lightsaber of Jedi Knight Jochis Maynard and booking transport home, Ruu transported the body back to Mandalore with her for a proper funeral. After arriving at the Kyrimorut Bastion on Mandalore, Kal helped her recreate the Jedi funeral pyre. The funeral of Jedi Knight Jochis Maynard was attended by former Jedi Knight Bardan Jusik, Kal and Ruusaan Skirata, A'den Skirata, Atin Skirata and his Twi'lek wife Laseema, Corr Skirata, Fi Skirata and his wife Parja Bralor, Venku Skirata; the infant son of now deceased Jedi Knight Etain Tur-Mukan as well as Jaing, Kom'rk, Mereel, Prudii and Ordo Skirata and Ordo's wife Besany Wennen. Shortly thereafter, Ruu gave birth to U'lik and the entirety of the Skirata clan came together not only to welcome the newest addition but all pitched in and helped raise him. While Ruu, Laseema and Besany taught him how to cook and clean U'lik learned to hunt and fish from his Ba'buir, Kal Skirata, the former Null Squad taught him about assassination techniques and the former Omega Squad passed to him all their knowledge of weapons and explosives. The women handled his schooling while he received daily lessons in both hand-to-hand and bladed combat from Bardan Jusik.
