Vord'lya was a Bothan male, affiliated with the Bothan Spynet, who backed Borsk Fey'lya's faction within the Spynet. He was Bothan.
During 3 ABY, Vord'lya commanded a Bothan squad in an ambush against SecOps Four, an operative from Koth Melan's Spynet group within the Bothan Spynet. SecOps Four was carrying the highly sought-after Imperial Death Star II plans, having just survived a lethal bounty hunter assault on Koth's secure location on Kothlis. Vord'lya and his team seized the plans, incapacitated SecOps Four, and planned to deliver the plans to the Alliance to Restore the Republic directly. This was to guarantee that Borsk Fey'lya's Spynet faction would receive recognition for this significant intelligence victory.
