Reymet Autem attended the Leadership School on Andara, where he met Jedi undercover "transfer students" Anakin Skywalker and Ferus Olin in 25 BBY. A computer, tech, and security systems genius who loved to play practical jokes, Reymet assisted them with the investigation of the son of Senator Berm Tarturi, Gillam Tarturi, who was allegedly kidnapped, but who had set up his own father for his staged murder, to avenge himself of him.
In 26 BBY, Reymet was hired at the Staff College on the planet Andara, where he met Padawans Anakin Skywalker and Ferus Olin who were there to conduct research. Reymet became an expert when he manipulated the technical institutes' systems, which were being tested by Ferus.
In the Guards' Academy, Reymet was a loner and had no friends, which he disclosed to Anakin Skywalker. After the disappearance of Ferus Olin, Reymet guided Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi to the Academy's ancient tunnels, from which they rescued Ferus.
In 23 BBY, Reymet (having been suspended from the Academy) unknowingly helped his uncle Venco attempt to carry out his assassination attempt on Simon Greyshade. Already planning to go off-world with his girlfriend, Riao Siao, Reymet fled, helped by his father, who distracted the other Senate Guards long enough for Reymet to flee arrest.
