Jod Na Nawood

Jod Na Nawood was a Force-sensitive human male pirate who operated under many aliases such as Crimson Jack, Dash Zentin, Professor Umiam Gorelox, Emissary, Jodwick Zank, or the "Mad" Captain Silvo. As captain of his own pirate crew during the New Republic Era, Na Nawood was deposed and imprisoned by his lieutenant Brutus around 9 ABY. Locked in the brig of Borgo Prime, he encountered a group of four children: Wim, KB, Neel, and Fern, and struck a deal with them; offering to help return them to their homeworld of At Attin in exchange for a reward. In truth, At Attin was reputed to be the location of an immense treasure horde, which Na Nawood sought for himself. The group worked alongside the droid SM-33 aboard the antique pirate ship, the Onyx Cinder.

Growing up in poverty on a desolate planet, Jod Na Nawood was found by a Jedi, who noticed his Force-sensitive potential and taught a slight amount of knowledge to him. However, at some point before 9 ABY, Na Nawood's master was found and killed in front of him as part of the Great Jedi Purge. Sometime later, Na Nawood worked with the astronomer Kh'ymm and the bounty hunter Pokkit, under different aliases, both of which he later betrayed.

By the New Republic Era, Jod Na Nawood became the captain of his pirate crew, taking on the alias of "Silvo". However, his incompetence cost him the confidence of his crew, who led a mutiny against him and imprisoned him in their base on Borgo Prime. There he encountered Wim, KB, Neel, and Fern, four lost children from At Attin, the lost planet of eternal treasure. Na Nawood proceeded to to work with the children alongside the droid SM-33 under the pretense of returning them to the planet for a reward, while secretly planning to reach and take the rumored treasure of the planet for himself. Na Nawood would eventually find the location of At Attin, betraying the children and returning to his crew. He was able to convince his crew of the existence of At Attin and kill the new captain, Brutus, to reclaim his captaincy. Na Nawood would ultimately stage an invasion on At Attin, a plot which failed after the Skeleton Crew repelled his invading forces with the support of the New Republic.
