Conro, a member of the human species, held the rank of captain within the Navy of the Galactic Empire. He was in charge of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Conro, along with Captain Shan, journeyed to the Castell system under the orders of Commodore Idel, with the objective of seizing the yacht named Imperialis. This vessel had been stolen by a group of thieves headed by the smuggler Lando Calrissian. Ultimately, the three Imperial officers were unsuccessful; Calrissian deceived Conro and Shan, causing their Star Destroyers to crash into each other, which allowed him to flee the system.
