Corwin Shelvay was a male Human Jedi Knight at the time Emperor Palpatine began the Great Jedi Purge. The apprentice of Darrin Arkanian, Shelvay traveled the galaxy with his master until he was captured by the Empire on Coruscant. Arkanian rescued him at the cost of his own life, falling to the blade of Antinnis Tremayne. Shelvay got his revenge on Tremayne, grievously injuring him, but came perilously close to the dark side in the process.

After wandering the galaxy in search of a new purpose, Shelvay eventually joined the Rebel Alliance. In the following years he recruited new members into its ranks and led special forces teams in attacks against the Empire. He may have even trained students of his own in the ways of the Force.
