Abam Tev served as the Imperial governor of a remote and impoverished system; she was female. Her world became the site of A-9 Vigilance interceptor production, which was contracted out by Kuat Drive Yards. Tev managed her shipyards with total disregard for the laborers' well-being. Ultimately, the workers revolted, joining forces with the New Republic circa 10 ABY, and supplied them with a quantity of A-9 interceptors.
