Prevaro attacked Azool, who revealed that she was actually Savan, Xizor's niece. She made Prevaro her lieutenant. Later, she took Prevaro with her to Hurd's Moon on a mission to capture the human replica droid Guri, who had gone rogue after Xizor's death. They determined that Guri had gone to the scientist Massad Thrumble, and Prevaro gathered a group of thugs to help capture her.
While Savan confronted Guri, Prevaro encountered the Heroes of Yavin, including Luke Skywalker, who cut off his right hand.
