When I was around 5 years of age, I was travelling with my parents from Mirial to Bonadan when the freighter we were on was highjacked. I was taken along with a number of other children (Not sure what happened to my parents when we were separated). Over the next 5 years I was sold from slaver to slaver until I ended up in the hands of Teemo the Hutt on this desert planet (Tatooine). Because of my size i was immediately chosen & trained for the fighting pits. My trainer was a human named "Praetoran", and for some reason he took a liking to me. He kept me out of trouble and ensured i wasn't mistreated. By the time i was 18 I graduated from the pits to guarding Teemo's underlings. Ultimately I was released from servitude (well mostly). Every now and then I am reminded of my obligation to Teemo, and required to do tasks on his behalf (usually for low pay). I do it mostly because of Praetoran, who was like a father to me and I still in keep in contact with.
**10/22/16 - (joeb) A few years earlier while learning/training/fighting in the Pits, A Tusken Raider was forced to fight in the Pits, which was odd because Hutts usually had some arrangement with Tusken Raiders (you leave my stuff alone and not only will i leave your 'stuff' alone but I will sometimes direct you towards other 'stuff') One day, the Tusken Raider was being jumped by multiple other fighters and Calesh got involved and assisted the Tusken Raider and thus a 'friendship' was born. The best Calesh could dechipher...RooGaa was his name. RooGaa began teaching Calesh in the way of the Gaffi Stick and he became so proficient at it that RooGaa and Calesh made him his own Gaffi Stick. One day RooGaa was taken away and never returned. Calesh knows he did not die in the Pit or else Calesh would have found out about that.
