Yana Ro's mother

The mother of Yana Ro was an Evereni female who escaped an attack against the Ro family on the planet Genetia, the townspeople attacking the family because they believed they were the reason their crops had failed. The sire of their daughter was killed in the attack, along with Yana's grandparents. They and Marda Ro's mother killed a family of Theelins to take their starship and escape the planet. Eventually, the ship's life-support systems began to fail and left them hungry and cold. Their ship was then towed by a Hutt Clan trawler to Nar Shaddaa, where the Hutts attempted to force them into slavery. However, the cult known as the Path of the Open Hand paid for their release and they and her family escaped to the planet Dalna, where they lived as members of the Path at the cult's compound on the planet. Yana's mother taught Yana to keep her emotions bottled up deep inside her, something Yana would always remember throughout her life. They also taught Yana how to say or avoid a goodbye, and then they and Marda's mother left, leaving Yana and Marda with the Path. Marda later believed that their mothers had wanted them to stay together.
