"This one was smart enough. Take a good look at him, Antilles. Maybe next time you'll recognize an Imperial spy when you pick one up."
"An Imperial spy, huh?"
"A free-lancer, anyway. Just as dangerous."
"I suppose we ought to thank you."
"I'd think you should, yeah. If it hadn't been for us, you'd have been a juicy little item in the next Imperial Intelligence report."
"I suppose we would have. What are you going to do with him?"
"We'll take care of him. Don't worry, he won't be making any reports anytime soon."
―Aves and Wedge Antilles[1]

This Walrus-faced individual was a male Aqualish who worked as a freelance spy for the Galactic Empire. He was active on a planet[1] located in the Dona Laza sector of the Expansion Region.[3][4]

Wes Janson, Wedge Antilles, Derek Klivian and Aves with the Aqualish spy

During the Thrawn campaign of 9 ABY, the New Republic pilots Wedge Antilles, Derek Klivian and Wes Janson went to the Mumbri Storve cantina just prior to the Battle of Bilbringi. They spent an hour at the cantina in an attempt to drop a hint that the New Republic would be attacking Tangrene instead of Bilbringi. They were successful at first, as they were being followed by this Walrus-faced Aqualish spy. However, they were intercepted on their way out by Aves, a member of Talon Karrde's smuggling organization. Aves and two of his men then neutralized the freelance Imperial spy by knocking him unconscious.[1]

The Aqualish spy being taken away by Aves and his men aboard a landspeeder

Aves assured Antilles that the Aqualish freelancer would not be making any reports anytime soon for the Imperial Intelligence. As a result, their evening spent spreading disinformation seemed entirely wasted. In order to accomplish their objective anyway, Antilles dropped Aves a hint that the New Republic would be attacking Tangrene in twenty-eight hours, in the possibility that the smuggler would sell the information to the Empire. The Rogue Squadron pilots and the group of smugglers then parted ways, with Aves telling Antilles that any messages left with the night bartender at the Dona Laza tapcafe would reach him.[1]

Following the encounter, Aves and his men left the scene aboard a landspeeder, taking with them the still-unconscious Aqualish spy.[2]
