Josen Shire was a Human male slave of the Serpent Masters of Ophideraan during the era of the Galactic Civil War, and the father of Tanith Shire. Shire and his daughter crash-landed on Ophideraan a number of years before 0 ABY and forced into servitude by the Serpent Masters, a clan of lizard-riding bandits who ruled the barren planet.
After some years toiling to maintain the planet's Great Well, Shire's daughter Tanith—who was allowed to work offworld, steering salvage wrecks towards Ophideraan—returned with Rebel agent Luke Skywalker in tow. Shire became acquainted with the young Force-user during his time on Ophideraan, and ran interference for Skywalker as he worked to overthrow the Serpent Masters and free those they subjugated.
