BIOGRAPHY:
Corvis Kai was born on the planet Espirion to a Human female Mother and a Twi’lek male Father. His parents moved to Espirion because of the welcoming attitude the planet has towards inter-species families. He grew up knowing very little of his heritage on either side because his Mother had no living relatives and his Father was shunned for loving a human. His parents raised him to respect and appreciate other people’s heritage and traditions but they made no effort to instill their own species’ traditions on their child.
Corvis showed force sensitivity early on, but there with no Jedi presence on Espirion. His parents did not want to send him off-planet to a Jedi academy, so they accepted the fact Corvis would not become a Jedi. When he was 9, Corvis demonstrated his connection with the force while shopping at the bazaar with his parents. A Blurrg at one of animal trader stands began behaving erratically an lashing out at the owner of the stand. Corvis, feeling compelled to act, approached the animal, reaching out with the force and calmed the creature. The few who witnessed this event just assumed the boy was lucky, but Haldus, a Devaronian watching nearby, recognized immediately that the boy acted with the Force. Haldus followed the family unnoticed until they left the market where he approached them as they walked to their speeder. Haldus explained that he witnessed Corvis' use of the Force and inquired about his training. Haldus appreciated the parent's desire to keep their son on planet with them as he felt the act of taking younglings away from their families at such a young age, as Haldus himself was, was not conducive to Jedi training. Haldus explained that this, and other reasons he chose not to disclose, were why he left the Jedi order years before. Haldus did not reside on planet, but traveled there often for work and trained Corvis in the ways of the Force every visit he made to Espirion.
As an adult, Corvis Kai works as a field biologist for hire. He's typically hired by various traders to locate and collect rare plants used in food and medicine. Having a strong connection to animals, Corvis refuses jobs that require the capturing of wild animals.
