- "Then came the battle. We won that day, against a laughing menace and her fiendish warriors, and we extracted the rebels we had been sent to save. But only thirty-seven Twilight soldiers survived the clash."
- ―Gadren, to Hazram Namir
A leader and her warrior group held members of the Rebel Alliance captive at Ferrok Pax[1] at some point by 1 BBY.[2] The Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry was sent to rescue the rebel captives, and over 200 rebel soldiers were deployed by foot to flank the warrior group, opting to not drop in from the air in order to maintain their stealth. Although the company took severe losses, the 61st clashed with the warriors and won, extracting the captive rebels.[1] In 3 ABY,[3] the 61st soldier Gadren, a veteran of the battle, recounted his time at Ferrok Pax to the tentative leader of the company Hazram Namir on the junker world Heap Nine, calling the warriors fiendish and their leader a laughing menace.[1]

The group of warriors was mentioned in the 2015 novel Battlefront: Twilight Company, written by Alexander Freed.[1]
