Peleg Ryn

Peleg Ryn was a Force-sensitive Noghri who served as a Jedi Master of the Jedi Order during the High Republic Era. In 228 BBY, a plague known as the blight was discovered to be present in the Shrine in the Depths, a Sith temple buried under the Jedi Temple on the Core Worlds planet Coruscant. In response to the discovery, Grand Master Yoda took it upon himself to lead the Jedi's efforts to slow the blight's spread by meditating inside the shrine.

At the time Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh visited the shrine to speak with Yoda, Ryn and Master Jenneh Ley were meditating alongside Yoda in the Sith temple. Ryn and Ley continued to meditate as the Grand Master left the shrine and spoke with Rwoh, though his brief time away resulted in the two taking on enough added burden that Jedi Inith Lowera was forced to enter the shrine and assist the two Jedi. Yoda returned to his meditation after he was finished talking to Rwoh.
