Mebara Jos was a female Togorian who lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Due to her Force-sensitivity, Jos was shunned by her own people, so she eventually left them and attempted to enroll at the Almas Academy, a Jedi academy that was located in the Cularin system. However, the Jedi refused her entry into the academy, and she left the system, vowing to have revenge against those who had spurned her. Jos founded the Fireclaw Horde, a Togorian criminal gang, and twenty years after her rejection by the Jedi, she returned to the Cularin system, determined to have vengeance against the system's inhabitants. However, her first two attempts at terrorist attacks, a scheme to capture the carbonite-frozen Jedi Ji-Ad Sarain and a raid on the luxury liner Queen of Cularin, were unsuccessful. As a final, desperate act, Jos planned to stage an attack on the Cularin Classic, a swoop race that was set to take place on the planet Cularin. During the race, she jammed the controls of a speeder bike that was being used by Team SoroSuub, one of the competing teams, sending the vehicle hurtling toward a crowd of spectators. A group of freelance agents prevented the bike from making contact with the crowd, enraging Jos and causing her to attack them using the dark side of the Force. However, they eventually defeated her.
