Operation Influx

Operation Influx was a three-stage Jedi military operation led by Jedi Master Vannar Treece during the Republic Dark Age in 1032 BBY. Its main objective was to disrupt the export of baradium, a volatile compound used in the production of munitions, from the planet Chelloa. Chelloa was part of the Sith Lord Daiman's fiefdom, the Daimanate. Daiman intended to use Chelloa's extensive baradium resources to aid his war effort against his rival and estranged brother, Lord Odion. Vannar Treece was aided by intelligence supplied by the undercover former Jedi Knight Gorlan Palladane, who was the leader of the Chelloan resistance.

Operation Influx involved infiltrating Sith space via the planet Oranessan, a key regional transport hub. This would then be followed by a Raid on Chelloa itself. The Jedi mission would then depart on a direct hyperspace line to neutral space. Despite its initial successes on infiltrating Oranessan, the Jedi mission was killed on Chelloa during an attack by the Sith Lord Odion, who unleashed a kinetic corruptor which razed large areas of the surface. Odion personally slew Vannar, leaving Kerra Holt as the sole survivor of the mission. Despite the failure of the operation, she succeeded in establishing contact with the Chelloan resistance led by Gorlan and helped evacuate the planet on the Freedom Fleet during the Destruction of Chelloa.
