Jerid was a human male member of the Path of the Open Hand cult who lived at their compound on the planet Dalna. He had a little sister named Vemian[2] and in 382 BBY[1] was the oldest of the Path's Littles who were looked after by Path member Marda Ro.[2]
That year, while giving away flowers with Ro at a station in the Dalnan city Ferdan's market, he teased fellow Path member and Little Utalir that her yellow head tendrils were prettier than flowers and wondered what the Path would get in return if they gave her up as a gift freely given. Shortly after, a Jedi briefly came to their station, and afterwards Jerid told the Littles that his mother said it was easier to follow the Path if you weren't Force-sensitive and tempted to use it. When Utalir asked, he told her that he'd heard that Jedi were Warriors who fought monsters.[2]
Jerid also had a crush on Yana Ro, and was disappointed when he saw her kiss her girlfriend Kor Plouth. When the Path's compound was threatened by flooding, the Littles stayed with Elders Old Waiden and Mabel Wiss. He and Utalir even looked after three toddlers during the event.[2]
