Gorn Sweevas was a male Rodian slave of an Imperial military interrogator during the Cold War. While he was in a slavery, he became totally brainwashed, and his free will was completely subdued. In 3643 BBY Sweevas was with his master on Nar Shaddaa, where he was interrogating Republic spies. One of the spies use the Force to kill all Imperials, including Sweevas' master. Sweevas himself escaped to safety of the secret Imperial Surveillance outpost in Tiernon building. There he met with a team of Imperial operatives who were assigned to deal with Republic technological advancement on Nar Shaddaa. Sweevas asked them to come into the interrogation chamber and kill the rebelling slaves.
