Ebya T'dell was a female Human who was born on the planet of Kesh circa 4992 BBY. She was the offspring of Kanika T'dell and Nafjan, both Sith who served as crewmembers aboard the Sith dreadnaught called the Omen. This vessel met its end when it crashed on Kesh in 5000 BBY. In 4985 BBY, at the young age of seven years, T'dell underwent an examination by the notable Sith Seelah Korsin. This assessment was to ascertain her suitability for bearing children within the strictures of the Sith society.
Around 4992 BBY, a female Human named Ebya T'dell came into the world on the planet of Kesh. Her parents, Nafjan and Kanika T'dell, were Sith crew members of the starship Omen. These individuals had survived the crash of the Sith dreadnaught on Kesh eight years prior. In 4985 BBY, Lady Seelah Korsin examined T'dell to determine whether she would be permitted to procreate within the newly formed Keshiri Sith society. Korsin, who knew her parents, scrutinized T'dell, noting her prominent cheekbones and expressing concern over the child's "florid" coloring. Eventually, Korsin decided that T'dell could potentially have a family, provided a suitable partner was found. Relieved to learn that she might not be a genetic dead end, T'dell went outside to play.
Ebya T'dell, a child with a serious demeanor and sound physical condition, displayed respect and obedience towards the Sith leaders on Kesh, including Seelah Korsin. Despite being only seven years old in 4,985 BBY, T'dell harbored a strong desire to have a family and felt relieved when Korsin's examination did not rule out that possibility. She held the belief that her duty as a Sith was to emulate Korsin, a notion that T'dell's examiner chose not to dispute.
The character of Ebya T'dell made her debut appearance in Lost Tribe of the Sith: Paragon, a 2010 eBook authored by John Jackson Miller.
