Camren, a Nautolan major of the Galactic Republic and male, found himself stationed on Belsavis amidst the intense Galactic War that pitted the Republic against the reconstituted Sith Empire. The Invasion of Belsavis circa 3641 BBY proved devastating; his entire unit was annihilated by Imperial forces, leaving Camren consumed by rage and unfit to continue serving actively. Driven by an unwavering resolve to retaliate, especially after the Imperials seized control of a vital power station, Camren sought out a Republic citizen, tasking them with its destruction.
