A Force-sensitive being, T'Bolton was trained in the ways of the Force by the Jedi Order. Attaining the rank of Jedi Knight, when the Clone Wars erupted between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, T'Bolton survived until the final year of war when he was dispatched to the front lines of Saleucami under the command of Jedi Master Oppo Rancisis.
During the fighting there, Jedi T'Bolton was killed in the fighting with the Morgukai Shadow Army. During the funeral of Master Rancisis, fellow Jedi K'Kruhk mourned his fallen comrade, along with the others who had died on the battle field.
The Jedi remember the fallen.
Comic writer John Ostrander based the character's name after the screename of a poster on the Dark Horse forums. Ostrander speculated that T'Bolton was a male Lorrdian from Lorrd born in 42 BBY.
