Aric Jorgan was a male Cathar soldier of the Galactic Republic who fought in the Cold War, the Galactic War and the war against Zakuul. Born on Rendili, Jorgan enlisted in Republic Military and joined an elite sniper squad called the Deadeyes, eventually becoming its commanding officer. Accepting a promotion to Lieutenant, Jorgan was transferred to Ord Mantell and fought in the Separatist War until he was blamed for the defection of Havoc Squad to the Empire and demoted to sergeant. General Vander assigned Jorgan and the last loyal Havoc Squad member to reform the squad, after the which the Republic Special Forces Division General Elin Garza ordered Jorgan and his new CO to hunt down the former Havoc commander Harron Tavus and his followers. The new Havoc foiled the traitors' operations on Taris, Nar Shaddaa, Tatooine and Alderaan, eventually neutralizing Tavus himself. Afterwards, Havoc Squad led a mission to destroy the new Imperial superweapon called the Gauntlet and fought in the Battle of Corellia, where the Squad reclaimed the Bastion and captured General Arkos Rakton, for which Jorgan and every other Havoc members received a Gold Crescent.

During his service in Havoc, Jorgan learned that his former unit, the Deadeyes, had been captured by the Empire and shipped to slave labor camps across the galaxy. He relentlessly pursued their tracks despite the interference from Republic Strategic Information Service agent Zane. Eventually locating the last of his former squadmates on Hoth only after two of them had already died from cold, Jorgan learned that Zane intentionally planted hundreds of Republic soldiers into Imperial POW camps, hoping that one of them would eventually lead to the mythical station Dusk 9. In 3636 BBY the galaxy was attacked by the Eternal Empire of Zakuul and early in the Eternal Empire conquest, Havoc Squad's commander went missing. Havoc members drifted their own ways, and with only Jorgan remaining in active military service, he was promoted to the rank Major and given full command of a new Havoc Squad. Becoming disillusioned with the way Republic was run by Leontyne Saresh and its inaction in opposing the Eternal Throne, Jorgan took Havoc Squad on an unsanctioned mission to Zakuul. There, Jorgan allied with the Alliance Commander to plant a wiretap on a Knights of Zakuul listening outpost. Later, Jorgan assisted the Alliance again on a mission to take control or disable the GEMINI frequency at the Hyperwave relay station located below the Zakuul Spire. The mission was a near-total failure, with four of six Havoc Squad members dead, though the team did manage to retrieve a data archive on the GEMINI droids. In the aftermath, Jorgan fully committed to the Alliance cause, continuing the fight against Eternal Empire oppression during the Assault on the Gravestone and the Assault on Odessen.
