Unidentified Pau'an Nihil

The title of this article is conjectural. Although this article is based on canonical information, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

A Pau'an pirate served within the Nihil marauder organization and piloted a hauler to and from the starship Gaze Electric during the High Republic Era. In 228 BBY, the pirate alerted the crew of the hauler to break after another ship was in their hyperspace exit path. After the crew managed to evade being destroyed and celebrated, the two humans who occupied the ship, Alys "Crash" Ongwa and Krix Kamerat, ordered the occupants to surrender. Following one pirate's death after they did not comply, Ongwa instructed Kamerat to tie up the remaining Nihil.
