Biography . Galactic Alliance Security . Javon Thewles was a male Human who lived in an apartment on the galactic capital Coruscant around the time of the Second Galactic Civil War . He joined Galactic Alliance Security and had achieved the rank of lieutenant by 44 ABY , when he was preparing to be tested for a promotion to captain . Thewles was present when the " Lambda " - class shuttle " DeepRay " returned to the Senate Building on Coruscant . Piloted by one " Sela Dorn , " " DeepRay " returned Chief of State Natasi Daala ' s Chief of Staff , Wynn Dorvan , General Merratt Jaxton , and Senator Fost Bramsin from the first Tendrando Arms Celebrity Sabacc Charity Challenge . Thewles met with Dorn and ordered that she take off again , as she had only been authorized to drop off the passengers and leave . However , when she began a false restart of the ship ' s powered - down systems , she set off a staged explosion of the right stern thruster . Dorn feigned anger at him , but smoke from the staged explosion set off the hangar ' s fire - control systems , causing foam to smother them . Thewles then granted Dorn time for a mechanic to look over the " DeepRay " and agreed to take her out on a dinner date . Unbeknownst to Thewles , Dorn was in fact the Jedi Knight Seha Dorvald , and the " DeepRay " true mission was to sneak Jedi Masters Kyp Durron and Octa Ramis into the Senate Building in preparation for a Jedi coup of the Galactic Alliance government . Thewles took Dorn out for dinner and dancing , and according to Dorvald , the date went well . Meanwhile , a conspiracy involving Imperial Moff Drikl Lecersen , General Jaxton , and Senators Fost Bramsin and Haydnat Treen also planned to overthrow Daala . They noticed Dorvald ' s actions and wished to discover what her purpose was , and to that end they faked a poisoning of Jaxton , Lecersen , and the Senate water supply , making Dorvald appear guilty of the act . Dorvald — whose charade as Sela Dorn the Galactic Alliance had discovered — was wanted as a suspect for attempted murder . Soon afterward , Thewles was arrested by the Galactic Alliance Military Police for conspiracy to commit murder , as he had been seen with Dorvald . He was soon acquitted due to lack of a motive , but he quickly began arranged his resignation from Galactic Alliance Security anyway . Before his resignation was processed , however , he used multiple favors to speak with Dorvald in the Senate Building ' s Security Center . After sweeping the room for listening devices and making sure they would not be overheard , he began to interrogate her . She insisted that she had not poisoned them , but Thewles began to dig further into the issue , suggesting that she had become aware of the conspiracy involving Lecersen and Jaxton . She warned him to be careful , and suggested that he was going to just get himself killed . When he showed no signs of backing out , she tried to plead that she was psychotic and thought that the Senators were all impostors , but he just wished her luck and left the room . Thewles ' resignation was finally processed and , released from duty , he became a civilian . Soon afterward , the New Jedi Order set into motion a coup of the government to oust Daala from her office . As the news of the coup unfolded , crowds of beings swarmed the Senate Plaza , which was barricaded by security troopers . There , Thewles saw a holocam operator moving toward the Senate Building , which was protected by several sets of quad - linked lasers with enough power to shoot down starfighters ; lasers that were set to fire if anyone came within fifty meters . A Quarren corporal ordered the man back , but he ignored her , and Thewles pushed his way through the crowd and convinced the corporal to shoot the man on the stun setting , lest he move within range of the lasers and they open fire on the crowd . The Quarren stunned the man in time to stop him , and the crowd reacted with outrage . Meanwhile , the Jedi were successful in their coup , and a triumvirate was established . Guarding Amelia Solo . When Jedi Knight Leia Organa Solo prepared to go on a mission to the planet Klatooine to improve the relations between the world and the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances , Dorvald suggested that she hire Thewles to head the security detail of Solo ' s adopted daughter , Amelia . Thewles was hesitant at first , having never guarded someone so young before , but with Solo ' s reassurance he accepted the job offer and traveled to Klatooine with the Solo family . There , he accompanied Amelia and her pet nexu , Anji , at all times . However , Amelia began to have Force visions that showed her mother — who was , unbeknownst to the majority of the galaxy — actually Hapan Queen Mother Tenel Ka Djo — being killed ; and she also felt the presence of a darksider . Soon afterward , Djo traveled to Klatooine to join in the negotiations , and while Organa Solo , her husband , Han , and Djo all attended a meeting with the negotiators , Amelia decided to take matters into her own hands . Thus , when the family protocol droid , C - 3PO , went missing , she decided to go out looking for him in hopes of finding the dark side man and stopping him from hurting her mother . Thewles did not want to allow Amelia out of the Solos ' ship , the " Millennium Falcon " , because Organa Solo had given them orders to stay in ; but he agreed to accompany her outside anyway when he realized she would bother him about it constantly if he did not . They soon found C - 3PO , who had been integrated into a meeting of the Manumission Mandate Militia , a droids ' rights group . They sent C - 3PO to the negotiators ' meeting , but on their way back to the " Millennium Falcon " Amelia managed to slip away from Thewles and the other security troopers . When they realized she was missing , Thewles contacted Organa Solo , who quickly went to find her adopted daughter . Amelia , meanwhile , located the dark side man — who was actually Querdan Dei of the Lost Tribe of Sith — and stopped him from his completing his mission to assassinate Djo . Dei turned to attack Amelia , but was beset by Anji and then killed in a duel with Organa Solo . Personality and traits .

Later , he showed hesitancy when approached by Organa Solo regarding heading Amelia ' s security detail , as he had no experience in guarding children — he feared he would be incompetent for the job . Nonetheless , he agreed to the task , and managed to entertain and humor Amelia . When confronted with the problem of the holocam operator moving too close to the Senate Building ' s laser defenses , Thewles knew that he had to be shot and stunned before the lasers opened fire , killing dozens or even hundreds of beings .
