Kirana Ti was born into the Singing Mountain Clan on planet Dathomir. She fought with her clan against the evil Nightsisters. Though the witches of Dathomir were all force users, Kirana Ti was the first to leave the planet in order to study the ways of the Jedi.
Kirana Ti was one of Luke Skywalker's original 12 students on Yavin IV. After a year at the academy she was promoted to Jedi Knight. Over the next several decades Ti would serve the New Republic in the Yuuzhan Vong War (25 ABY), the Dark Nest Crisis (36 ABY) and the Second Galactic Civil War (40 ABY).
Kirana's niece Sanola Ti eventually joined the Jedi order representing a new generation of Dathomir witches to convert to the ways of the Jedi.

Behind the Scenes
Though Kirana Ti does not feature in current Star Wars canon, many witches of Dathomir are important to the ongoing narrative. Asajj Ventress, Mother Talzin, and Morgan Elsbeth all carry on the mantel of Dave Wolverton's original Dathomir witches.
