Roni von Wasaki was a male Human Jedi Knight of the Expansionist Era who established and maintained the peace in several frontier sectors. His presence earned the ire of local crime lords, who retaliated by placing a large bounty on his head. Though Wasaki was able to fend off any would-be captors, he fell prey to Leshy Drobo, Gammid, and XT-8. Though he was able to kill Gammid, the other two apprehended him, encased him in carbonite, and prepared to deliver him to their client.

However, Wasaki used the Force to enter Drobo's mind, and convinced the hunter to set him free. The droid learned of this, and killed Drobo, but in the process, destroyed the hyperdrive of their craft, the Starkiller. The thirty day trip was elongated to 20,000 years, and Wasaki, preserved in carbonite, was slowly driven insane. Stumbled upon by a group of intrepid soldiers of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Wasaki was freed in the Imperial era, a desolate madman.
