Klito, holding the rank of Lieutenant, was an Imperial officer within the ranks of the Imperial Navy. He worked as a Hangar Deck Officer on the Victory-class Star Destroyer known as the Subjugator. As the Galactic Civil War raged on, the Subjugator was attacked by a task force belonging to the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Consequently, Captain Kolaff, who was the commander of the vessel, instructed Klito to ready the command shuttle for immediate launch, facilitating the escape of the Imperial engineer Lira Wessex.
