Barruk was a member of the Guardians of the Whills religious order during the High Republic Era. In 382 BBY, Barruk was stationed at the Second Spire in the Holy City of the moon Jedha while it held a peace summit between the warring Outer Rim planets Eiram and E'ronoh. When an explosion rocked the Second Spire, Barruk and other Guardians, including Selik and Jance, ran to the source and discovered that Eirami Ambassador Lian Cerox had been injured. Selik then sent Barruk and Jance to guard and escort Jedi Master Creighton Sun as he brought Ambassador Cerox to the Spire's medical station.
