For a regular soldier with no real outstanding qualities but good instincts, Captain Harron Tavus really did beat the system of Force Sensitives hogging the spotlight. Sure, he didn't have as much trailer screen time as Jace Malcom, nor is he as cool as the name taking and butt-kicking Theron Shan, but he did make a name for himself – one any Trooper will know intimately in The Old Republic.

Not much is known about Harron Tavus' early life, but during the beginnings of the Trooper storyline on Ord Mantell, he informs the player that he was with Havoc squad since he was barely a man. Harron saw nearly three decades of direct conflict, all the way from the Battle of Alderaan, Sacking of Coruscant, and various special forces conflicts in Imperial space by the orders of General Garza. He surely didn't adhere to military doctrine. As seen in Threat of Peace, he had an odd relationship with Satele Shan after he helped rescue her and a flourishing friendship with Jedi Master Orgus Din, even going so far as to help him in diplomatic missions and offensives, like the Sith invasion of the Minos Cluster.
