Perry functioned as a Peacekeeper, a law enforcement officer, in the Outbound Flight Colony. This colony was the resultant government formed by the survivors of the Galactic Republic's survey vessel, Outbound Flight, following its destruction in a star cluster known as the Redoubt.
During 22 ABY, Trilli, a Human member of the crew, told Jorad Pressor that Perry, alongside Quinze, was responsible for guarding the Quarantine section, the area where the colony monitored Force-sensitive children. In that same year, Commander Chak Fel was exploring the wreckage of Outbound Flight and came across the small prison. A female attendant who was guarding the children initially thought he was Perry, but soon understood her mistake.
The character of Perry was referenced within Survivor's Quest, a novel authored by Timothy Zahn and released in 2004.
