Biography
"Stop! Just stop. Right there!"

- Davan is alarmed by the mercenaries

In 9 ABY, Davan served as a soldier of the New Republic. He was the sole crewmember of a prison transport that was guarded by New Republic security droids. However, it was boarded by a team of mercenaries, who sought to rescue the prisoner Qin. After fighting a number of security droids, they arrived at the control room where Davan was based. The soldier sprung from his seat and aimed his blaster pistol at the four mercenaries. Despite him telling them to put down their blasters, the mercenaries slowly surrounded him.

Davan then held up a distress beacon, which if activated, could call in reinforcements from the New Republic. While three of the mercenaries wished to kill him, though, the bounty hunter known as "the Mandalorian" opposed the idea. The Mandalorian argued with Mayfeld, resulting in a confrontation between the pair with the Devaronian Burg backing Mayfeld. The other mercenary, Xi'an, then threw a vibroblade at Davan, killing him immediately. Despite this, the soldier had activated the distress signal, summoning a New Republic squadron to the transport.
