Sora Bulq was born into a wealthy Weequay merchant family which owned most of Ruul, a moon of the Weequay homeworld, Sriluur, and on which they had their estate. Identified as Force-sensitive early in his life, Sora was taken in by the Jedi Order to be raised as a Jedi. During his training, Sora was one of the Jedi Temple's most promising students, and as he rose up through the ranks of the Jedi Order, he became exceptionally skilled in lightsaber combat, eventually mastering all lightsaber combat forms except Form VIII and was considered to be one of the most formidable swordsmen in history. Eventually Sora became a Jedi Master and a lightsaber instructor in the Jedi Temple.
