Lonkin was a heroic trooper of the Imperial forces, particularly renowned on Divac 7. As one of the most skilled fighters within the Restored Empire – a faction born from the power vacuum following Emperor Palpatine's demise at Endor – he served in 13 ABY. His assignment placed him on RZ7-6113-23, an asteroid that housed a facility. During a vibro-lance demonstration intended to impress Kir Kanos, an Emperor's Royal Guard, Lonkin met his end at the hands of Ennix Devian. Kanos expressed his displeasure at this loss, deeming the death of such a capable soldier a regrettable occurrence.
