Keong, a moff within the ranks of the Galactic Empire, found himself on a list created by New Republic authorities seeking to detain Imperial personnel in 5 ABY. Subsequently, a team of New Republic agents, headed by the pilot Norra Wexley, apprehended Keong. Following this capture, the moff's name card was added to a collection kept on the crew's starship, the Halo, which included other cards representing Imperials captured by the group. Temmin Wexley, a member of the team, remembered the circumstances of Keong's capture as he added yet another name card to their growing collection.
