Tolemite

The Tolemites were a sentient species native to the Wild Space planet Tolis. Living around twenty thousand years before the High Republic Era, the Tolemites were steeped in the Force, which they worshiped as the Peace. During an expedition, the Tolemites discovered the homeworld of the Force-draining creatures later known as the Nameless, bringing some of the beings back to Tolis. However, when the Nameless were removed from their home, the creatures were transformed and corrupted by their hunger and instead fed on the Tolemites. The Nameless, as well as the affliction known as the blight, destroyed the Tolemites' civilization. The surviving Tolemites retreated, constructing three rods using Echo Stones that were used by the Three Ancients to control the Nameless, leading the creatures back to their home.
Although the Tolemites were successful, the survivors numbered only several hundred, and their demise was inevitable. Some Tolemites fled aboard starships to spread the word, while the remaining members of the species constructed a new city on an island, containing a repository that would preserve their story. The Tolemites' new civilization was eventually destroyed in a flood, leaving their city and the repository underwater. Thousands of years later, the Tolemites had fallen into legend. Jedi Knight Reath Silas and former Jedi Master Cohmac Vitus investigated the Tolemites, hoping to learn their knowledge of the Nameless and the blight. The pair discovered the location of Tolis and traveled there, uncovering the Tolemites' repository.
