Ramid was a Human captain of a starship who was a former love interest of Ania Solo, a descendant of the smuggler Han Solo. During the last years of the Second Imperial Civil War, he and Ania Solo were imprisoned at an Imperial prison camp on the planet Drash-So. At some point, Ramid and Solo attempted to escape their prison camp. While Solo managed to escape offworld to the Carreras system, Ramid was recaptured, beaten and imprisoned by the guards. Following the defeat the One Sith, Fel Empire forces liberated the Drash-So prison camp and freed Ramid. Due to his experiences on Drash-So, Ramid harbored a deep sense of bitterness and resentment towards his former lover.
By 139 ABY, Ramid had become the captain of a starship that traveled throughout the Outer Rim Territories. That year, an opportunity to settle scores with Solo emerged when the Galactic Federation Triumvirate, the new galactic government, placed a bounty on her head for the alleged murder of the Imperial Knight Teemen Alton. While Solo and her companions were visiting Lasgo Port, Ramid and his crew tricked Solo into coming aboard their starship under the pretext of repairing their damaged engine systems. Once aboard, Solo was kidnapped and imprisoned. Ramid and his crew intended to take her to the next inhabited system and hand her over to the Imperial authorities. However, Ramid's plans were thrown into disarray by the arrival of a third party—a mysterious bounty hunter who had been Solo and Ramid's former jailer.
Following a prolonged pursuit over a remote world that rained acid, molten silica, and glass, the bounty hunter succeeded in downing Ramid's starship and killing his crew. However, Ramid and Ania Solo survived the crash and joined forces to evade the bounty hunter and make their way to the planet's sole settlement, where they hope to get a transport offworld. While sheltering under Ramid's speeder bike during a "glass storm", the former couple reconciled their differences. Ramid forgave Solo for abandoning him on Drash So while she forgave him for kidnapping her. After the storm had subsided, they made their way to the settlement only to come under attack by the mysterious bounty hunter. During the confrontation, Ramid attempted to sever the bounty hunter's prosthetic hand but she broke his neck, killing him. Despite his death, Solo managed to clear her name with the help of the Imperial Knights Yalta Val and Jao Assam.
