Biography
"Well my Jedi friend, thank you for your timely rescue! You just name your reward. You'll find the Empire is good for it.''" "''Got no doubt. I'm taking your cargo, Captain."

- Captain Piard to Cade Skywalker.

In 137 ABY, Captain Piard was commanding an Imperial shipping vessel delivering a cargo of Thunderbolt Mark 7 blasters. His ship was boarded by Black Sun pirates on the 5709-DC Shipping Lane and shortly after by the crew of the Mynock, which consisted of Cade Skywalker, Jariah Syn and Deliah Blue. Skywalker and his crew managed to subdue the pirates while Piard, who mistook Skywalker as a Jedi helping them out, gave thanks and offered a reward. He was surprised when Skywalker then demanded for his entire cargo. Piard and his aide Guerno's memories were then altered by Skywalker into believing that it was the Black Sun pirates who stole their cargo.

Behind the scenes
His name is most likely a reference to Star Trek's Captain Picard.
