Biography

By 3 ABY,^[2] Covell had joined the Galactic Empire and achieved the rank of captain in the Imperial Officer Corps. He was stationed on the Outer Rim moon Toshara^[1] in 3 ABY,^[2] where he came into possession of a datapad containing information about the Crimson Dawn crime syndicate. Realizing that he could sell the information to the rival Pyke Syndicate, Covell stored the data at the Imperial Forward Base on Toshara and traveled to the Pyke market in Toshara's capital city, Mirogana.^[1]

Covell eventually approached the thief Kay Vess in the market, knowing that the young thief had connections with the Pyke Syndicate. Covell proceeded to inform Vess of the Crimson Dawn datapad he had at the Imperial base and commanded Vess to pass along their willingness to exchange the information for a cut of deals made by Gorak Palas, the Pyke's underboss on Toshara. Refusing to pay Vess for passing along the message, Covell ended the conversation by invoking his name and military rank. Vess later infiltrated the Imperial facility and stole the tablet for herself before facing the decision of whether she would be best served selling Covell's information to the Pyke Syndicate or back to Crimson Dawn.^[1]
