Murell, an individual affiliated with the Rebel Alliance, held the position of a tauntaun caretaker. This role was carried out at Echo Base, the Alliance's base of operations situated on the planet of Hoth. The scarcity of available handlers resulted in a work schedule for Murell that did not allow sufficient time for both meals at the mess hall and adequate sleep. Consequently, Murell, along with the other handlers, received sustenance via food deliveries from other members of the base. On one particular day, specifically in 3 ABY, Chase Wilsorr acted as the delivery person, bringing food and caf to Murell, as well as colleagues Baesoon and Jordan Smythe, while they were on duty at the tauntaun enclosures. Murell accepted a portion of the delivered goods with gratitude.
The character of Murell was featured in the short narrative titled "A Good Kiss." This story was authored by C.B. Lee and included in the 2020 anthology of short stories, From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back.
