Afterward , Carrick helped his son and Hierogryph obtain the money and later moved to work at the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine at his son ' s request . Biography . Family tragedy . A Human male native of the planet Phaeda , Arvan Carrick worked as a banker in the era of the Mandalorian Wars . At some point , Carrick married a woman named Reiva , with whom he had five children , including four daughters — their third child , and only son , Zayne , was born in 3982 BBY . The boy showed Force potential from a young age , and just after Zayne ' s fifth birthday , he was brought to the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine in the hopes he would be accepted for Jedi training . Although Jedi Master Vandar Tokare confirmed that Zayne only had a marginal proclivity with the Force , he was impressed with the way the child formed kinships with those around him , and so allowed the boy to be brought into the Jedi Order . By 3964 BBY , Zayne had become a Padawan stationed at the Jedi Tower of the planet Taris , where he trained under Master Lucien Draay . Carrick , who continued to work at his bank in the meantime , stayed in touch with his son , visiting him on at least one occasion . That year , Carrick completed his Jedi training , and all that was left was to find out whether he would be promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight . The five Jedi Masters of the Jedi Tower set up a banquet and a private ceremony for the occasion , and although Carrick and his wife were invited to the meal , they were unable to attend . At the ceremony , four of the five Padawans in the Taris Jedi class were murdered by their Masters ; Zayne , late to the proceedings , was the only one to escape . Zayne became a convenient scapegoat for the massacre and went into hiding as one of the most wanted fugitives in the Galactic Republic . Back home on Phaeda , Carrick and his family never believed that Zayne was responsible . A couple of weeks after news of the massacre broke , Carrick was suddenly transferred , after years of working at the same bank without notice , to the planet Telerath . The corporate crown jewel and subject of the Telerath Interstellar Banking Initiative , Telerath was not only a banking world but a resort world as well , where customers stayed in a luxurious setting while meeting one - on - one with representatives . Carrick arrived on Telerath ahead of the rest of his family and began working as a " personal dispute resolution advocate . " Kidnapped . After only a short time on Telerath , Carrick was assigned a very interesting case — a pair of Arkanian Offshoot s , " Chantique " and " Baron Margryph , " were claiming that the baron ' s account had been frozen due to his name ' s similarity to that of Marn Hierogryph , a Snivvian criminal who was alleged to be Zayne ' s accomplice . While Carrick tried to resolve their case , he was suddenly set upon by the Ithorian bounty hunters known as the Moomo Brothers , whom Jedi Master Raana Tey , one of those responsible for the Padawan Massacre , had hired to keep tabs on the man . Directly defying Tey ' s order to simply watch him , the Moomos kidnapped Carrick . Carrick ' s new clients gave chase but were unable to catch the Moomos — however , Carrick was shocked to see his son , Zayne , there too , trying to rescue him from the bounty hunters . Ultimately , the Moomos escaped with Carrick , bringing him to their ship , the " Moomo Williwaw " . Once on the ship , Carrick was tied up and left in the cargo hold to be watched by Del Moomo . Meanwhile , Zayne and Marn Hierogryph , who was also on Telerath , hatched a plan to free Carrick . Hierogryph met with Dob Moomo at a nearby cantina to arrange an exchange : Zayne for his father . As the meeting went on , Zayne sneaked into the " Moomo Williwaw " and freed his father from his bonds . By then , a drunken Del had stumbled back to the ship to get Carrick . When Hierogryph showed up with a hooded man pretending to be Zayne , Del realized something was afoot and began to argue with his brother — Zayne hit the brothers with an object using telekinesis and , after the brothers began fighting , took the opportunity to escape with his father . The group all returned to the ship Zayne was using , " The Last Resort " , where Carrick learned the whole story . " Chantique " and " Baron Margryph " — the latter of whom had posed as Zayne during the escape — were actually named Jarael and Camper and had been traveling with Zayne and Hierogryph since shortly after the massacre . Still on the run , the group was on Telerath to attempt to withdraw a sum of money that had been in Hierogryph ' s frozen account . Zayne had no idea that his father was working on Telerath , and it was pure chance that he had been assigned to their case . Aiding his son . With the immediate danger behind them , Carrick was able to access the account . At his son ' s request , Carrick transferred a portion of Zayne ' s share to Shel Jelavan , a friend of his from Taris whose brother had been killed in the massacre . After learning that Raana Tey had hired the Moomo Brothers to go after his father , Zayne suggested that Carrick go to Dantooine , where he believed that the family would be safer from attack from the rogue Jedi Masters . Although initially reluctant , Carrick assented to the idea and found himself welcomed with open arms by Master Vandar Tokare . Sympathetic to the Carrick family ' s situation , Tokare set Carrick to work managing the Jedi Enclave ' s finances . Carrick continued to work for some time as Tokare ' s accountant , eventually looking into the Draay Trust — the financial trust that held the fortune of the Draay family , which included Zayne ' s former Master , Lucien Draay — at Tokare ' s behest . Carrick found a great deal of previously unknown wealth in the trust , which Tokare suspected could have been used to create Jedi shadow agents loyal only to the Draays . Zayne was eventually able to clear his name and opted to pass up an opportunity to return to the Jedi Order in favor of going into business with his friend , Marn Hierogryph . Carrick ' s son also had another project in mind — an idea he dubbed the Rogue Moon Project , an organization meant to aid refugees , wrongly accused fugitives , and other individuals without hope . To this end , Carrick helped manage his son ' s finances , investing money that Zayne brought in from a con on the Metellos Exchange auction house and from a bounty collected on the head of the " Corellian Strangler , " Toki Tollivar . This money funded a headquarters for the Rogue Moon Project , hidden in a warehouse on Coruscant . Personality and traits . In the aftermath of his son ' s alleged crimes on Taris , Arvan Carrick and the rest of his family refused to believe that Zayne was responsible and , furthermore , if he was responsible , figured that he had been forced to do that of which he was accused . Although Carrick was deeply affected by his son ' s predicament , he hid it as well as he could while working on Telerath . His transfer to Telerath came as a big surprise to Carrick — he figured that it had to have something to do with his son , not believing that he had been noticed on his own merit . As a representative , Carrick was very polite to his clients and tolerated " Baron Margryph ' s " repeated furious outbursts . Carrick was helpless against the Moomo Brothers and was easy prey to be kidnapped . While being ushered to the " Moomo Williwaw " , Carrick was absolutely stunned to see his son , Zayne , who later rescued him . Carrick was initially reluctant to move to Dantooine as Zayne suggested but agreed anyway , trusting that his son ' s idea was prudent for the safety of the family . Carrick had light skin with brown hair and eyes , wearing a mustache during his time on Telerath . Behind the scenes .
