Sivrak, the wolfman of Mos Eisley, was one of the city’s newest denizens when Luke and Obi-Wan entered the Mos Eisley Cantina. The locals knew very little about him and since Sivrak kept to himself, no answers were forthcoming.

By making some educated guesses, a few believed that Sivrak must be from the Uvena star system, a group of planets ruled exclusively by the Shistavanen Wolfmen. The quiet beings are excellent hunters and regarded as possibly the best scouts in the Empire. Superior dexterity and survival skills make them ideal explorers of unknown and untamed worlds.

For this reason, and by the notched blaster rifle he carries slung over his back, Sivrak was presumed to be a scout of some skill. However, scouts were hard-pressed to find work in the era of the Empire’s restriction of exploration. The only allowed exploration was strictly supervised by the Empire, for the empire was only interested in conquering newly discovered civilization rather than developing new worlds.

What the locals did not know, and what required an extensive search of Alliance data banks to learn, was that Sivrak was really Lad Sivrak, a famous scout responsible for charting many of the Empire’s most dangerous territories. Lak, however, was wanted by the Empire for concealing the presence of a Rebel safe world in a system he discovered while scouting the Unknown Regions for the Empire.

Since Sivrak spent most of his time out of touch with civilization, he had no idea of the Rebellion against the Empire. To him, all Senators were bureaucrats and it really didn’t matter who was in charge as long as he didn’t have to deal with them very often. Then he found the colony secluded on a rocky moon.

The people were wanted "traitors to the Empire," as well as refugees from devastated planets like Dalron Five. Sivrak assumed the beings were settlers, or perhaps crash survivors, and offered them his services. The Rebels’ initial suspicions were alleviated as he helped them organize and prepare for the upcoming winter months.

Over campfires and dinner tables Sivrak began to learn about the tyrannies of his employers and the pride and purpose of the Alliance. When he next decided to "move forward" (his own phrase for when he feels the urge to change location), he vowed not to betray his newfound friends. He went on to another sector and finished a hasty report for the Empire.

As luck would have it, however, another scout discovered the colony and alerted the Imperial Navy. While spies for the Alliance managed to alert the colony in time to save most of the refugees, a few Rebels were captured. Under notoriously efficient Imperial Interrogation methods, they revealed the visit by Sivrak some months before.

The stormtroopers he blasted convinced Sivrak that the Empire was after him, so he altered his name and headed toward the opposite side of the galaxy. While in Mos Eisley, he assisted several Rebel agents. Sivrak was eventually recruited by the Alliance and served in many battles prior to his death during the Battle of Endor.
