Rotham, a Sith Warrior of the male persuasion, was a member of the reconstituted Sith Empire during the period known as the Cold War, which involved conflict with the Galactic Republic. After Clan Varad, a Mandalorian clan, took control of the Republic warship Allusis, Darth Malgus chose Rotham, along with the Sith Inquisitor Vincine, Kyrenic (a bounty hunter), and the Imperial agent Andan, to create a team with the objective of retaking the ship. This team faced resistance from a Republic strike team, with only one of the two teams ultimately surviving the confrontation.
