Hakin was a Human native of the planet Alderaan during the Galactic Civil War. A skiff racer, Hakin had learned to bargain on the black market and later joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic—which valued his black market bargaining skill—shortly before the Battle of Yavin in the year 0 BBY. That year, Hakin, who had by then become a corporal, was stationed aboard the Rebel CR90 corvette Tantive IV during its attack by the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Devastator.
