Tarkos Sund, a male Human entrepreneur and innovator, established Sund Technologies. This tech firm was created during the Cold War period separating the Galactic Republic from the Sith Empire. Driven by a thirst for adventure, Sund aimed to obtain a prototype accelerator rumored to have vanished during the destruction of the planet Taris some 300 years prior. However, his efforts to extract the item from the Tularan Marsh were thwarted by the region's indigenous creatures. Consequently, Sund enlisted the help of other people located nearby, and they were ultimately successful in recovering the accelerator on his behalf.
