Quin Amarant was a Lamproid male, once part of Lourna Dee's Tempest within the Nihil organization. He hailed from the planet Florn, but was banished after committing murder against his own nest. Amarant joined Dee in the Nihil's assault on Valo, but was apprehended by the Jedi archivist OrbaLin. Later, the Jedi permitted Amarant to flee Valo so they could discover the Nihil base situated on Grizal. During the ensuing battle, Dee killed him because he neglected to inspect his stolen starship for homing beacons.
