Skivvers was a male Ho'Din who operated out of Ord Mantell as a slicer. Due to a bounty placed on his head, he was forced to keep a low profile, yet this did not prevent him from keeping in contact with his underworld connections. These included the veteran Rebel recruiter Tay Vanis. In 0 BBY, Skivvers passed on a message from Vanis to Raleigh Dawn, enabling her to join the Rebel Alliance with three other recruits.
