Devore Korsin was a Human male officer in the Sith mineralogical corps during the time of the Great Hyperspace War. The son of a veteran admiral in the Sith navy, Korsin started work with the Sith mineralogical service after a spice addiction derailed his naval career. During these years, he married a runaway slave of Sith Lord Ludo Kressh named Seelah, and together they had a son, Jariad. In 5,000 BBY, Korsin was assigned to a Lignan mining mission to the planet Phaegon III, where he was to work under his half-brother, Yaru Korsin. Korsin was envious of his brother's position of authority and appealed to Dark Lord of the Sith Naga Sadow for Yaru's job, to no avail.

However, a Jedi attack deflected Korsin's ship, the Omen, off-course as it jumped to hyperspace bound for Kirrek; the Omen crashed on an uncharted planet, although Korsin and most of the crew, including his wife and son, survived. Korsin soon became resigned to the fact that the crew would not be able to escape the planet after an examination of the Omen wrecked remains and, under the influence of spice, he had a confrontation with his brother that descended into an all-out lightsaber duel. Ultimately, Devore was defeated and dropped off a cliff by his brother, his body swept away by the ocean below.
