Eremin Tarn

Eremin Tarn was a Force-sensitive individual who lived during the Galactic Republic's reign. At the age of thirteen, Tarn was taken as a Jedi Padawan by Jedi Master Maks Leem and trained to wield the Force, serving in the Jedi Order as a protector for the Republic. A headstrong yet principled student, Tarn defied the authority of many people, including his Master.

When the inter-galactic Clone Wars began in 22 BBY, Tarn was one of many Jedi to become disillusioned with the Jedi Order. He left the Order and became a follower of Jedi Master Sian Jeisel, who believed that the Jedi should have been fighting against the seemingly corrupt Republic rather than defending it against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In 19 BBY, Leem conversed with Jedi Grand Master Yoda about her former Padawans, expressing her sadness that Tarn had followed Jeisel by departing the Order.
