A Chosen individual, known as a Storm-hair, was a warrior serving under the warlord Nuso Esva. These warriors, including the Storm-hair, originated from an unidentified planet alongside Esva. This Chosen one, among Esva's most devoted, possessed black hair alongside distinctive, multifaceted bright yellow eyes. In the year 8 ABY, this warrior of Esva stood guard outside the Dwelling of Guests structure, located within the planet Quethold's Red City.
As the Queen of the Red, ruler of the Quesoth and Esva's ally, approached the dwelling's entrance, the Storm-hair swore allegiance, a Quesoth tradition Trevik viewed favorably. Subsequently, the warrior and the Queen's retinue entered the building, where the Storm-hair warlord engaged in conversation with the monarch. The day after, during a battle involving Storm-hair, Quesoth forces, and the Empire of the Hand, both Esva and the Chosen were killed.
The novella Crisis of Faith, penned by Timothy Zahn and released in 2011, included the Storm-hair. This novella was part of the 20th Anniversary Edition of the novel Heir to the Empire from 1991.
