Galo Thriven was a Human male from Thule who served as an elite commando in the military of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
A dark sider[1] who supported the Confederacy's aim to reform the "archaic" Galactic Republic,[2] Thriven led an elite unit of soldiers and successfully struck at vulnerable targets in the Republic during the Clone Wars.[1] Though trained to evade capture, he and his team were prepared to kill themselves if captured alive to preserve Thule's status as a hidden Sith fortress world[3] and Force nexus[4] and prevent information about the planet from falling into the wrong hands.[1]
As an elite soldier, Thriven wore a combat jumpsuit, armed himself with a blaster rifle and vibroblade, and carried a number of fragmentation grenades, detonite charges, electrobinoculars, and medpacs. Like many of the residents of Thule, he was fluent in both Galactic Basic Standard and the ancient Sith language.[1]
