Kastays

Kastays was a male Aaris.

The last days of the Aaris
Kastays was a member of the Aaris species, and lived on their homeworld of Aaris III several thousand years before the Galactic Civil War. A scholar of some importance among the population, he resided in a tower that loomed over a city. One night, he witnessed a comet streaking across the night sky. A day later, a military legion entered the city with a relic&mdash;a triangular metal ingot that they referred to as the Plaque of Victory.

When the Plaque of Victory was brought to the city, and the population began to turn on each other under its influence, Kastays was part of a faction that attempted to hide the artifact. Hiding it in a floor vault in the Place of Kastays, Kastays recorded the downfall and "last days" of the Aaris civilization from his tower.

Legacy
His recordings were discovered thousands of years later by Imperial science team MS-133.

Because the members of MS-133 had no knowledge of the true name of Kastays's chamber or city, they took to calling both after him&mdash;as the Place of Kastays and the City of Kastays respectively&mdash;as he was the only Aaris whose name they had learned.
