Crans was one of the Cavrilhu Pirates under the command of the pirate captain Zothip.
Crans, Zothip, and several other pirates including Portin, Grinner, and Control, infiltrated Moff Vilim Disra's quarters on the Imperial Remnant capital of Bastion. Crans didn't realize that they were being followed by the Mistryl Shadow Guard known as Karoly D'ulin. Once inside, Karoly killed Zothip. After Zothip's death, Control took over as the head of the Cavrilhu Pirates.
