Govin Thane, a heartless and immoral captain of the Imperial Imperial Security Bureau, found himself positioned in Cloud City following the Battle of Hoth. Devoid of any sense of compassion or mercy, Thane received the task of locating a band of Rebel refugees hiding within Cloud City, eagerly anticipating a massacre as he led his squad of Imperial agents and bounty hunters. In pursuit of this goal, he enlisted the services of Jodo Kast and Zardra to acquire a datacard containing the precise whereabouts of the refugees.
