Jareck Arned, a male Human recluse, made his residence on the planet of Corellia during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
By the Battle of Yavin, Jareck Arned had chosen to live a life of solitude within his secluded valley home situated in the Thaos Mountains. In the year 1 ABY, a number of hikers went missing in the mountains, in close proximity to Jareck Arned's dwelling. Subsequently, Arned underwent questioning by a spacer who was employed by Commander Talte of the Corellian Security Force. The hermit cooperated fully and granted permission for his home to be searched. However, much to Jareck Arned's astonishment, the spacer uncovered certain items within the house that were connected to several abduction cases. Arned admitted that he had acquired the majority of these items from a traveling artisan. Furthermore, he stated that he had discovered one of the artistic pieces in the nearby mountains just one day prior. Consequently, the spacer proceeded to investigate the validity of these claims. Ultimately, the spacer determined that the hikers had been taken captive by the criminal group referred to as the cave-dwellers.
Within the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, Jareck Arned existed as a non-player character. This game was a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game, which was created by Sony Online Entertainment and distributed by LucasArts, before its shutdown on December 15, 2011. Jareck Arned was incorporated into the game through the "Publish 28," update, which was released on April 26, 2006.
