Tarm
- "Very well, […] The judgment of C'baoth is that Svan will pay to Tarm the full wages agreed upon. […] The judgment will be carried out immediately."
- ―Dark Jedi Joruus C'baoth
Tarm was a Human male villager residing on the planet Jomark under insane Dark Jedi Joruus C'baoth's rule.[1] In 9 ABY,[2] during Grand Admiral Thrawn's campaign, Svan, another Human villager, attempted to kill Tarm with a slugthrower and Tarm attempted to defend himself with a knife; however, C'baoth and a Jedi who he was training, Luke Skywalker, arrived after they sensed the "evil" in the building the villagers' confrontation was taking place in in and stopped it. Ultimately, C'baoth considered Tarm in the right following his and Svan's motives, and punished Svan with Force lightning and ordered him to pay Tarm the full wages they had set. Tarm had dark skin and a beard.[1]
