Zyn, a hefty Sith Inquisitor of the Human male persuasion, was in the service of the rebuilt Sith Empire in the era of the Cold War.
In the time of the Cold War, Zyn came to know of a homicide that occurred within the confines of the Sith Academy's walls. Seeking details, Zyn apprehended and then inflicted torture upon a witness, Alif. Overseer Harkun dispatched a Sith Acolyte to Zyn as a component of the apprentice's trials; Zyn then allowed the acolyte to conclude the interrogation and unmask the murderer.
