Early Life

Vaner was born on Balosar in 2 ABY. As a young boy, his parents were both caught up in the Balo mushroom trade, leaving him with a lonely childhood, but also allowing him the freedom to explore his city and planet on his terms. This encouraged his free spirit, rebelliousness, and a bit of the legendary Balosar selfishness. Eventually his parents were both caught by the New Republic for dealing death sticks, leaving him alone on the planet at the age of 13.

He began harvesting, eventually worked up to planetary transportation and to his dream job-Inter Planetary Transportation. He got to pilot a starship loaded with product throughout the galaxy. Until 25 ABY, Vaner was an elusive mushroom transporter, known for his knack at being able to get in and out of the mission target without being spotted. Near the end of the year, Vaner was arrested by the New Republic for selling balo mushrooms and sentenced to 5 years. His jailtime helped him to avoid most of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion.
