'''Yelzrin''' was a [[Human]] [[Sexes|male]] colonist who led a [[Lake Brell colony|settlement]] on the [[planet]] [[Taris]] during the [[Cold War]] between the [[Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|Sith Empire]]. In [[3643 BBY]], the [[Sith assassin]] [[Rora Seake]] was sent to wipe out the colony, but Yelzrin and the other colonists were saved by the arrival of a [[Hero of Tython|young Jedi Knight]] who [[Duel in the Lake Brell colony bunker|defeated]] the [[assassin]].

==Biography==

==Biography==



A [[Human]] [[Sexes|male]], Yelzrin led a group of [[Galactic Republic|Republic]] settlers in founding a colony in a bunker on the western shore of [[Taris]]'s [[Lake Brell]]. In [[3643 BBY]], Yelzrin and his colony were attacked by [[Rora Seake]], a [[Sith (species)|Pureblood Sith]] [[Sith assassin|assassin]], and her two pet [[Jurgoran]]s.<ref name="TOR" />

A [[Human]] [[Sexes|male]], Yelzrin was born well before the [[Cold War]] between the [[Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|Sith Empire]], and his parents told Yelzrin stories of the [[Jedi]] as he grew up, though he always had some doubt about their veracity.<ref name="TOR" /> In [[3643 BBY]],<ref name="Date">{{TOR_dates}}</ref> he was among those [[Refugee (status)|refugee]]s and settlers who were selected by the Republic to resettle the [[planet]] [[Taris]] as part of their [[Taris reclamation effort]], and Yelzrin was chosen as the leader of a group of settlers. His group established a [[Lake Brell colony|colony]] on the shores of [[Lake Brell]], in an old bunker built into the hills. However, his colony was targeted by the Sith Empire in their efforts to sabotage the Republic's resettlement of Taris; the [[Sith assassin]] [[Rora Seake]] was sent to wipe out the colony.<ref name="TOR" />



Yelzrin and his people were saved, however, by the arrival of an [[Hero of Tython|unknown]] [[Jedi Knight]] who had learned of Seake's target from their adversary, the [[Imperial Agent]] [[Watcher One]]. Upon arriving, the Knight attempted to have the settlers evacuated, but it was too late—Seake was already there. The [[Jedi]] fought and killed the Sith's pet Jurgorans, and then defeated the assassin as well, saving the colony.<ref name="TOR" />

Fortunately for the colonists, Seake's mission was leaked to [[Hero of Tython|a young Jedi Knight]] by an [[Watcher One|Imperial operative]], and the [[Jedi]] and a companion reached the settlement before Seake. Yelzrin greeted the [[Jedi Knight]] and offered his visitors whatever they wanted from their supplies, but was confused when the Knight warned him of Seake's impending arrival. Shocked, Yelzrin started to gather the other colonists for evacuation, but it was too late—Seake arrived with two massive creatures known as [[jurgoran]]s that she kept as pets. As Yelzrin fell to his knees in terror, the Jedi intercepted Seake and confronted the assassin, [[Duel in the Lake Brell colony bunker|defeating Seake's pets]] and then the assassin herself. Immensely relieved, Yelzrin offered whatever reward he could provide to his saviors, but the Knight refused. With the Jedi's departure, Yelzrin and his colonists set about building up their settlement's defenses against further incursions.<ref name="TOR" />

==Personality and traits==



When Yelzrin offered the colony's supplies to the Jedi in thanks, they refused, saying that it was not necessary. The Jedi then departed, resuming their pursuit of Watcher One and [[Doctor]] [[Nasan Godera]].<ref name="TOR" />

Yelzrin was a dark-skinned Human with short [[Color|black]] [[hair]] and green [[eye]]s. He was told stories about the Jedi as a child, though he never truly believed them until he met a Jedi in person on Taris. Yelzrin was generous despite his settlement's relative newness; even before the colony was saved by the Jedi, he was willing to share his settlement's limited supplies with the visiting Jedi.<ref name="TOR" />

Yelzrin and his colony were created for ''[[Star Wars: The Old Republic]]'', a [[wikipedia:Massively multiplayer online role-playing game|massively multiplayer online role-playing game]] released by [[BioWare]] on [[December 20]], [[2011]]. He appears in the mission "A More Immediate Concern", part of the Jedi Knight class storyline on Taris, as the target of a Sith assassin. Watcher One compromises with the Knight, revealing the location of Seake's target in exchange for time to interrogate Doctor Godera.<ref name="TOR" />

+

Yelzrin appears in the Jedi Knight class mission "A More Immediate Concern" in ''[[Star Wars: The Old Republic]]'', a [[video game]] released by [[BioWare]] in [[2011]]. The mission is only received if the player has a positive [[Light side of the Force|light side]] alignment at the end of the previous mission; [[Dark side of the Force|dark side]] players are instead sent to acquire stolen Jedi relics from [[pirate]]s. Players can also refuse the mission to help the colonists, which rewards the player with dark side alignment points. As the Jedi Knight is a Republic class and is thus assumed to make decisions that reward in the maximum light side points, this article assumes the player saved Yelzrin and the colonists.<ref name="TOR" />
