Krepkit, a General in the Galactic Republic army, was a male Human who lived through the Galactic War. While the Battle of Hoth raged, he spoke with Generals Shodarra and Uchang about the surprising return of the legendary Bane Brigade on the planet Hoth. They had been thought to be annihilated more than a decade prior, during the Battle of Rhen Var. Uchang suggested sending additional troops to Hoth, but Shodarra dismissed the idea, claiming to have witnessed the Bane Brigade's destruction. Due to the Bane Brigade's past destruction of Krepkit's people's capital, he insisted that the truth, whatever it may be, needed to be discovered.
