The Exodus of Proloxis IV & The Fight to Survive on Korriban[]

It became apparent how low Cas-Lo was willing to go in order to reveal what he had sensed to the Royal Court. Unwilling to except whatever Cas-Lo had sensed within the Grand Master, Gigin-Taue openly chided his first apprentice for even suggesting that Skywalker was in league with Montagra and the Space Raiders. At the height of the feud between Masters Skywalker & Vont, Putag and Tenel Ka burst into the chamber with news of the planets impending global flood. faced with the destruction of his kingdom, Soear ordered an planetary evacuation aboard the Relief Effort vessels. Chi-Ro was unlucky enough to board the vessel carrying the Masters Skywalker,Gigin-Taue Soear & Umble Zarr,Kam Solusar,Cilghal,Putag,Cas-Lo Vont,Lowbacca, as well as Acheff-9 whom was assigned the task of guarding the beast Montagra in the cargo hold. Mid-flight Masters Solusar,Cilghal & Soear convinced master Skywalker and his wife that they needed to Delve into the mind of Montagra to obtain the identity of its Master before Master Vont could attempt to pin the entire chain of events upon Master Skywalker. while making their first mental connections the masters where knocked backward by a blast of force energy from the master, this blast was strong enough to knock the vessel out of hyperspace.

While journeying through the vast temples of Korriban The beast began a conversation with Mara Jade-Skywalker on the subject of her son, it wasn’t long before the master took control of the conversation and began to threaten Mara. causing Luke to lunge at the beast and rain blows upon it while giving into his anger the Master openly questioned the beast about what they where really here to obtain. not before long Master Soear and Chi-Ro where able to separate Skywalker from the injured Beast, whom seizing the moment took back his Saber Hilt from Rahem. In the Melee the beast drove the blade into the Ocular Cavity of the downed ships Pilot while reciting a Sith Montra to infuse raw force energies within the mummified corpses of the Dark Lords of old, instantly the entire tomb became alive with legions of ravenous Sith Mummies whom overpowered the small Jedi convoy. In the midst of this ensuing slaughter Montagra made for the location of his masters interest as Chi-Ro was forced to watch master Cilghal be ran through by four Lightblades,rushing to her defense Rahem was able to vanquish the killers of the Mon Cal Healer as well as take up her Orange Bladed Lightsaber and demonstrate his efficiency in the Jar'Kai form. At the insistence of Master Lowbacca the exhausted group departed the Tomb with the Sith Mummies in constant pursuit, the group would continue fighting off the Mummies the entire passage through the lower sections of the Temple until they entered the final chamber before the Temple of Prophesies.Within this Chamber the Jedi Convoy would encounter a far greater threat than the Sith Mummies whom themselves went around the chamber in fear of the Mighty Guard, the small convoy took notice of the large Gorax but did foresee the creature to be of any threat until it engaged its crimson bladed Lightsaber and assumed a classical fighting stance.

Behind the scenes[]

Name[]

The name Chi-Ro comes from a three year old mispronunciation of Depressis's first name by that of his sister during her infantile years. The last name Rahem however was written on the back of a Return of the Jedi lunchbox he collected as a child. The full name dates back as far as early illustrations of a Sequel Trilogy comic book he did while living in Seattle in October 2000.

Portrayal[]

CHI-ROCONCEPTART

The look of Chi-Ro Rahem went through several stages; the first depiction from October 2000 was something of a near-human species, in The second version he was a much older Jedi. However when the Fan-Film trilogy of 2001 started to become a reality; the character was re-imagined as something of a force-sensitive homage to Bruce Lee and Dragon Ball Z by Depressis's cousin whom was slated to portray the character. Much of this approach stuck, even though the fan-film was abandoned. In this period of time the scripts went through a series of drastic rewrites, in all the early stages the character of chi-ro was too central and became something of a nuisance to the stories. The Greatest contribution to the character and the trilogy from the authors cousin would have to be the Light-Chukes; from which spawned the question how does one use these things? And from which the answer ultimately became the Overlords of the Teräs Mundri. In the Sequel Trilogy Photo-Novel Chi-Ro is depicted by a ROAD CHAMPS MXS Ricky Carmichael action figure.
