Avax was a Zabrak of the female persuasion. She existed during the era of the Galactic War. She was once an assassin who worked for the Chevin Conglomerate, but she and her brother Chrone rose to become leading figures in the Kanawyn Syndicate operating out of Rishi, alongside a character named Dastid. The year 3637 BBY saw the Syndicate attempt to seize the smuggling operations of Thera Markon, making demands for her routes and clientele. Thera initially deterred the Kanawyns by leveraging the fearsome reputation of her bounty hunter mother, Crysta Markon, who had trained the Grand Champion of the Great Hunt. This tactic proved effective for a period. However, its effectiveness waned, leading to Crysta's demise at the hands of the Syndicate, an act that ultimately led to their downfall. Thera, utilizing her financial resources, placed bounties on all three Syndicate leaders. The Grand Champion claimed these bounties, eliminating the bosses and inflicting significant damage upon the Syndicate.
