Biography

The human Iric Lams served as part of the Jedi Order as a Jedi Padawan during the High Republic Era.^[1] He^[2] was present in the Republic outpost on^[1] the planet^[4] Eriadu^[1] in 228 BBY. That year,^[5] after being vetted to attend, Lams attended a meeting hosted for members of the Republic Defense Coalition and the Jedi Order that was led by the Republic Admiral Pevel Kronara to plan a mission to rescue prisoners from the Nihil prison ship Korvix Vorn.^[1]

The Padawan stood next to Jedi Master Fleur Ridleg as Kronara displayed a hologram of the vessel and explained its armaments—laser cannons and blister bombs. When Lams indicated to the admiral that they had bombers of their own to counter the Nihil's weaponry, Kronara countered that their enemy's shield generators would deflect their attacks while it was active. Shortly after the meeting's end, the Republic and Jedi carried out the mission^[1] and successfully rescued the Korvix Vorn's prisoners.^[6]

Later in 228 BBY,^[7] Lams joined his Jedi and Eriaduan allies as part of the Eriaduan resistance to repel the Nihil invading Eriadu. With a group of allies, he used his lightsaber to defend against Nihil snipers. The Eriaduan resistance defeated the Nihil on the world not long afterward, with the resistance celebrating their triumph.^[3] The Nihil collectively surrendered to the Republic not long afterward.^[8]

Personality and traits

During the Nihil conflict, Lams was loyal to the Jedi Order and the Republic during their joint fight against the marauders. He had been among several individuals rigorously vetted to attend the briefing meeting for the Korvix Vorn mission and felt that beating the ship's defenses would be easy work. Lams had dark eyes, tan skin, and brown hair, some of which he kept styled in a Padawan braid.^[1]
