Master Gostner Falk was found for training ninety years ago. Much as he was pacifistic and political, so was his Master. Though trained to use the lightsaber, he never resorted to using it against another lifeform; his style was solely defensive. He rarely used the Force for more than divining future events.
A great number of diplomatic missions are attributed to his name, most of them successful. He also trained many Padawans in his life time.
At the age of 90, he was shot and killed by a sniper at a political rally on a Republic world. The shot had been meant for the Senator speaking, but the sniper apparently missed and hit Master Falk in the forehead. Some theorize that he foresaw his death and allowed it to happen.

Almania is the war-torn namesake of the Almania sector. It has always been ruled by an upper caste known as the Je'har. In the past, the Je'har have done horrible things to the lower castes, but in the past one hundred years the Senate (as it is a Republic world) has reasoned with the upper caste and ended its tyrannical ways (at least for now). Senator Wojaine is a member of the Je'har.
The world has also faced several wars, mostly civil wars. The capitol, Stonia (where you are headed) is an oasis in the gray, burnt deserts around, just north of the Sea of Holes (infamous site of an orbital bombardment). The Je'har control the capitol, where many are impoverished.
The planet has three moons- Pydyr, Auyebesh, and Drewwa.
Pydyr is a tropical moon, inhabited by the lazy and wealthy Pydyrians. The natives use the tropical beaches and larger cities as tourist traps, drawing in the Galaxy. However, outside of the big cities, the Pydyrians live primitive lives in muddy homes, using droids for mundane work so that they may live lives of leisure. They don't care about the rest of the Galaxy besides the tourists, and so allow Senator Wojaine to represent them.
Auyebesh has no notable landmarks or history; mostly grassy plains and a few settlers.
Drewwa was colonized by a few minor corporations to test various battle droid prototypes and firearms on the hostile wild life. Devoid of sentient life, otherwise.
All three moons, in addition to Almania, have a long history of issues with slavers. Pydyrians are rarely taken for labor (too lazy), but human and Twi'lek settlers on the moons are often captured. Almania also suffers from slavery raids, worsened by Wojaine's dealings with Svidrigailov.
