Unidentified Chuhkyvi Jedi
A Force-sensitive member of the Chuhkyvi species was native to the planet Iskalon.[1] As a Chuhkyvi, the individual had tan skin pigmentation, yellow eyes, four-fingered hands and a keen sense of smell.[2] The young Chuhkyvi was inspired by the example of Kiro, a Chuhkyvi who became a folk hero among his species as the "First to Swim," a designation he received for leaving Iskalon.[1] Kiro, also a Force-sensitive, fought alongside Luke Skywalker and was offered Jedi training by the Rebel commander, although he ultimately turned down that opportunity. Sometime after 4 ABY,[3] the young Chuhkyvi was inspired to similarly leave the ocean-homeworld of Iskalon, and became a Jedi in the New Jedi Order.[1]
Personality and traits
The Chuhkyvi Jedi was Force-sensitive and had an intense hatred for dishonesty and lawlessness. The Jedi held Kiro in high admiration.[1]
