O-Melie was a Human female hailing from Kegan. She was married to V-Nen and was the mother of Olana Chion (originally named O-Lana), who would later become a Jedi Knight.
O-Melie and V-Nen secretly made contact with the Jedi Council, prompting them to dispatch a team to Kegan. This team consisted of Jedi Masters Qui-Gon Jinn and Adi Gallia, along with their respective Padawans, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi. However, the Force-sensitive leading members of Kegan's government, known as the Benevolent Guides, possessed the ability of precognition. They foresaw Kegan being subjugated by Masked Soldiers and the Galactic Empire. Consequently, they abducted Olana and sent her to the Re-Learning Circle to indoctrinate her in the principles of The Learning. Nevertheless, the Jedi successfully rescued Olana after Kenobi and Tachi were captured and sent to the Learning Circle, but later escaped. Upon discovering Olana's Force sensitivity, the Jedi took her back to Coruscant for training. Meanwhile, V-Nen and O-Melie adopted a young orphan named V-Davi, who had escaped the Re-Learning Circle alongside Kenobi and Tachi. O-Melie and her husband participated in a clandestine resistance movement against their leaders. Following the Jedi's exposure of the activities at the Re-Learning Circle, the city's residents peacefully removed the Benevolent Guides from power.
