Aven, a Mirialan male, was a Padawan in the Jedi Order. During the Cold War era, specifically the period of tension between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire, Aven trained on the Jedi homeworld of Tython. Characterized by black hair, green eyes, olive skin, and the distinctive facial tattoos of their species, Aven, who learned Basic later in life, served the Jedi Masters at the Tython Temple by informing new arrivals about available learning resources. In 3643 BBY, when a young initiate who would become the Hero of Tython arrived, Aven directed them to Master Muheeda for instruction in the Force and other Jedi skills.
Aven is a character featured in Star Wars: The Old Republic, the massively multiplayer online role-playing video game released in 2011 by BioWare and LucasArts. The character can be found at the entrance of the Jedi Temple on the planet Tython. As a part of the Jedi Knight quest called "The Arm That Holds the Saber," Aven guides new players to Master Muheeda, serving as an introduction to class skill trainers.
