Venerated Ones


Venerated Ones of Vandelhelm Lillindri Nanimei Filda Vandelhelm XXXII and Endrodanar Tiopuld Shaamador Vandelhelm XXIV. The original discoverers and colonizers of the planet Vandelhelm, known as Vandel and Helm, were the founders of the world's Metalsmiths Guild, and the Venerated Ones were their descendants. Because of this heritage, they possessed significant symbolic value for the planet's metalsmiths. The metalsmiths considered them to be hereditary royalty and were known to halt their work without the Venerated Ones' approval. During the time of the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire imprisoned two young Venerated Ones, specifically Lillindri Nanimei Filda Vandelhelm XXXII and Endrodanar Tiopuld Shaamador Vandelhelm XXIV, in an effort to seize control of the metalsmithing industry on Vandelhelm. For a period of three years, the children were held on Ord Vaug until the Alliance of Free Planets rescued them and returned home. Soon after, "Lilli" was chosen as the Guildmaster of the Metalsmiths Guild, establishing solid connections with the New Republic, the Alliance's successor.
