Major Pathel was a Human male who served as major of the Imperial Army until he joins a Sith cult known as the Revanites during the Cold War. He was head of security at the Wall on the Sith Empire's capital planet of Dromund Kaas. In secret, he helped initiate new members into the Revanites by interviewing them during their Pilgrimage, the name given to the final task Revanite initiates undertook before being accepted or rejected from the cult.
