Eeytch Eeytch was a Menahuun shaman living in the secret community of Hua ' bal near the city of Bartyn ' s Landing in Lamaredd . During his time , the alien inhabitants of the Landing believed the Menahuun to be extinct , but the Menahuun were preparing their reappearance . Eeytch , one of the leaders of the community , helped organizing a challenge through which the Menahuun champions , including Eeytch himself would fight the champions of the Landing to defende what they considered to be their right . Biography . C . 529 BBY , the sentient species Menahuun was thriving in their resource - rich homeworld Lamaredd . The planet was settled by Hugo Bartyn , a Human agent of Outer Rim Oreworks who built the ORO Mining Station LM0228 in the Krakana ' s Maw mountain range and the alien - populated city Bartyn ' s Landing in a nearby bay . Speciesist Bartyn and his cohorts also hunted the primitive Menahuun until what they believed to have been their extinction . Really , the Menahuun had secretly gathered and migrated towards the northwestern area , far away from the civilization — which they called " The Slayer ' s Land " , as they considered Hugo Bartyn to be " The Slayer " . C . 194 BBY , the local flora in their new home began to die because it was too near a waste dump of the mine . The Menahuun incorrectly assumed this to be a new attack from The Slayer , and decided to go back to their ancestors ' land . Following their custom , they would challenge The Slayer ' s " tribe " to a duel of champions , trying to avoid an open war . During their comeback , they found a secret entrance to the mine . The Menahuun began inhabiting the mine , calling it " Hua ' Bal " , for one century and a half , sharing it with the mining droids , while they were learning about the Human ' s customs , skills and power . C . 29 BBY , Eeytch was a shaman and a community leader of Hua ' Bal . At some point , Eeytch had obtained an ORO insignia from an outsider ; this was considered an achievement among his people that allowed Eeytch to become one of the Menahuun champions — specifically the grand champion — to duel with the aliens in the challenge . Although the Menahuun leaders wanted to wait for the challenge before starting any raid , several young Menahuun scouts had secretly performed attacks against the Human community . A group of aliens , officially agents of ORO , investigated these activities and eventually found Hua ' Bal . Eeytch had used his shamanic powers to predict the arrival of these individuals , so he gathered the community in the arena where the duel would take place . He then performed a ritual and waited for the aliens to arrive . He welcomed them and offered to talk , explained the situation : The aliens should win the duel , or the Menahuun would start a war against the Landing . As the aliens were agents of ORO , they held ORO badges and as such Eeytch considered them worthy of the title of champion . Eeytch guided the newcomers to the arena and then he joined the other Menahuun champions in the duel . Eeytch himself had predicted that he still had many years to live , so he was not worried about the possibility of his death ; neither he tried to kill the strangers , preferring only to test them . The Menahuun were defeated and Eeytch , laughing , offered to negotiate the peace . After some diplomatic talks , the Menahuun accepted to live harmoniously along with the aliens , starting a new era in Lamaredd . Personality and traits . Eeytch was short even for a Menahuun — a species that rarely exceeded 120 centimeters of height . His skin was wrinkled as happened with old people . He commonly wore handmade clothes and a leather pouch to carry several magical totems , a crystal he used as a talisman and herbs . Eeytch was a Force Adept , having a number of skills related to the power of the Force , including several offensive capabilities such as telekinesis . His weapon of choice was a spear , and he used the Force to improve its capabilities . He could also use the Force to understand other languages but , when he tried to use this skill to speak Galactic Basic Standard , he presented a strong accent . Most Menahuun were unfamiliar with advanced technology , but Eeytch and the other shamans did know about the effects of fire in a reactor core control room . Behind the scenes . Eeytch first appeared in the role - playing adventure " Reckonings " , written by Cory J . Herndon and published in the magazine " Star Wars Gamer " # 7 ( 2001 ) . Eeytch ' s name was listed as one of the " example names " for the Menahuun species in " Ultimate Alien Anthology " ( 2003 ) . Alternate ending . The article assumes that the player characters of " Reckonings " achieve the best possible ending but , should they be defeated in the duel , then Eeytch would heal them and take them to the dungeons of Hua ' Bal . If the player characters refuse to fight in the challenge , Eeytch would warn them , but otherwise let them leave .
