The renowned Aleena podracer Ratts Tyerell's son was Deland Tyerell. Following Ratts Tyerell's death in the 32 BBY Boonta Eve Classic, Deland established the Ratts Tyerell Foundation. This organization was created to reveal the perils inherent in podracing. His advocacy led to a significant drop in the sport's popularity by 22 BBY, ultimately resulting in its prohibition within the Core Worlds. He was the father's son.
