Vima Sunrider
the daughter of Andur and Nomi Sunrider, Vima was born
with a rich family heritage in the use of the Force. Little in
known about her early training following the death of her
father, but she showed an innate ability to talk with animals.
During the Exis Convocation, Vima grew bored when her
mother refused to train. Using her rudimentary skills with the
Force, Vima stowed away on Hoggon's and convinced him to
take her to Ulic Qel-Droma on Rhen Var. Vima believed that
Ulic would train her in the Jedi way, despite his lack of contact
with the Force, but was unprepared for his initial wrath.
However, Ulic realized that Vima had been sent to him for a
reason, and agreed to train her. Vima was a quick study, and
soon built her own lightsaber. However, to Ulic's dismay,
Vima began to grow impatient with the learning process. She
was quickly calmed by Ulic, who feared losing her to the Dark
Side fof the Force. When Nomi arrived on Rhen Var to take
her home, Vima refused to leave Ulic's side. Ulic, for all his
despair, discussed things with Nomi and convinced her that he
had tried his best to lead Vima toward the Light Side of the
Force. When Ulic was killed by Hoggon, Vima and Nomi saw
Ulic's body disappear into the Force, and realized that he still
had the heart of a Jedi. With his last breath, Ulic proclaimed
Vima to be a Jedi herself. Vima returned with her mother, who
continued her training.
