Chates

Chates was a human male who became a scumrat in the White Worms gang on the planet Corellia after his father was killed by muggers. He looked up to fellow gang member Rebolt and hoped to impress him by beating up the scumrat Han, who he saw escape from the gang's leader, Lady Proxima.

Biography
At a young age, the human male Chates traveled to Coronet City on the planet Corellia with his father, who worked as a farmer. The pair visited a bank in the city, but during the visit, muggers attacked and killed Chates's father, leaving him alone in the city. He quickly fell in with the White Worms gang, who were based out of a den in an abandoned industrial complex in the city.

Chates became a scumrat within the gang, and in the year 13 BBY, was present in the den when fellow scumrat Han was brought before Lady Proxima, leader of the gang. Han, who had returned from a trade with no goods for Proxima, used a rock to break a shutter behind the gang leader and bath her in light, which burned her skin. Using the distraction, Han then pushed through the other scumrats and escaped.
