Horley, a male Human smuggler, made his home at Fort Nowhere situated on Ruusan during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
In 5 ABY, while on sentry duty for the town, he received a call from Carole Grawley inquiring about her missing husband, Grif. Later that night, Grif arrived on foot. Horley, when asked about the mayor's location, pointed him toward the Smuggler's Rest. Grif's cryptic comment about the Empire soon causing more trouble for the mayor than he currently faced left Horley perplexed.
During ensuing battle on the planet, Horley met his demise.
