Biography[]
Liam was a youngling who became part of the Jedi Order some time prior to the Clone Wars. During the Separatist Crisis, he was part of the Bear Clan,[1] a class of younglings trained by Jedi Grand Master Yoda. During a session in which the younglings trained to use a lightsaber, Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi inquired to Yoda regarding the location of the planet Kamino, which he could not find in the Jedi Archives. Kenobi displayed a map of the galaxy in the training room, and Yoda requested that Liam lower the shades. He did so, and the room darkened so the map could be viewed.[2]
