Nilim Firith, nicknamed Nil by his friends, was a male Twi'lek bounty hunter during the Great Galactic War and former lieutenant in the Imperial Military. After deserting he was captured by the Empire some time later. After spending nearly two decades in an Imperial prison, he met and escaped with a young Mandalorian named Kyram Beviin and the pair became successful bounty hunters until they came in contact with a Imperial Intelligence officer, Tobin Sesk, eventually leading them to a contract with the Sith Empire.
