Description: oolan was an Ithorian male who lived during the High Republic Era. In 382 BBY, he was a member of the Path of the Open Hand cult and was one of its Littles. He was the son of Path member Tragor. During the Night of Sorrow, The Mother, one of the leaders of the Path, tasked Boolan with planting thermal detonators throughout the caves at the Path compound, but he was stopped by Path members Yana Ro and Marda Ro.
Boolan eventually became a Baron and an infamous Nihil scientist who operated as Eye of the Nihil Marchion Ro's Minister of Advancement. He led the Children of the Storm, Jedi hunters who captured Force users for him to experiment on. He also became obsessed with the Nameless and their connection to the Force.
Biography
In 382 BBY, Boolan was a member of the Path of the Open Hand cult and was one of its Littles. He was assigned alongside fellow Littles Tromak and Naddie to deliver food to Ric Farazi, a journalist who was visiting the Path compound on the planet Dalna and had fallen ill. When Jedi Knight Oliviah Zeveron and Jedi Padawan Matthea Cathley discovered Farazi also while investigating the Path, Boolan, Tromak, and Naddie found them in Farazi's hut, immediately recognizing them as Jedi and as the enemy, Boolan blaming them for the rains and for Farazi's illness. When Farazi collapsed and passed out due to her condition, Boolan and the others ran to the other Path members screaming that the Jedi had killed her.
Later, during the Night of Sorrow, Boolan was tasked by The Mother, one of the leaders of the Path, to plant Thermal Detonators throughout the caves at the compound the Path was operating from. The Mother hoped to blame the catastrophe on the Jedi and escape unscathed. However, he was discovered by Yana Ro, a Path member who had grown weary of the cult and the Mother, who confiscated the detonators from Boolan. Eventually Yana was discovered by her cousin Marda Ro, who thought that Yana had been planning to plant the bombs. Marda refused to believe that Yana wasn't planting the bombs until Boolan reappeared and Yana pointed a blaster at his head, threatening his life unless he revealed who ordered him to place the detonators. Boolan admitted that he had been ordered by the Mother alongside littles Utalir and Tromak, though Tromak had refused, the Mother telling him that it was the only way to get back at the Jedi for his father's death. Marda told Boolan that she had been there when his father died and that it wasn't the Jedi's fault, urging him to go find the other Littles and tell them to stop planting the bombs. He ran away from her, chanting 'The Force will be free.'
Following the Destruction of Starlight Beacon in 230 BBY, the leader of the Nihil pirates, Marchion Ro appointed three new Tempest Runners, including Boolan.
