Basile, a Captain in the Imperial Navy, was a Human who demonstrated unwavering loyalty to Emperor Roan Fel. He was the second in command to Admiral Tohri Challon on the Pellaeon-class Star Destroyer named Dauntless during the events of Operation: Thunderstroke. Basile, along with the rest of the crew of the Dauntless, died while valiantly creating a window of opportunity, allowing the Emperor's shuttle, Defender One, to successfully jump to hyperspace.
