Claris served on a New Republic Intelligence squad dispatched to assist with freeing Verkuyl. Partnering with the local Verkuylian resistance, she planted explosives near Verkuyl's primary communications transmitter, aiming to isolate the Imperials from reinforcements. However, the message she attempted to send to the New Republic fleet that was poised to attack, was intercepted by Imperial forces, leading to her capture. Following Selby Jarrad's successful contact with the fleet and the subsequent liberation of Verkuyl, she was freed, having survived the operation.
