A Force-sensitive being, Xeltek 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, Xeltek 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, Xeltek was killed in the fighting with the Morgukai Shadow Army. During the funeral of Master Rancisis, fellow Jedi Xiaan Amersu mourned her fallen comrade, along with the others who had died on the battle field.
Xeltek was named after the message board screen name of Star Wars fan Christian Flobrant. Jan Duursema had the name used to honor Flobrant who died mere months before the release of Revenge of the Sith.
