Unidentified Ishi Tib pirate (Silvo's pirates)

An Ishi Tib pirate was a member of a pirate crew during the New Republic Era. Originally serving under Captain Silvo, he switched his allegiance after a mutiny elevated Brutus as the new leader. With his eye lost during a raid on a merchant freighter, the Ishi Tib underwent a surgery to replace the missing organ with a cybernetic prosthetic. Equipped with a new replacement, he subsequently took part in the Invasion of At Attin.
==Biography==
===The eye lost===
An Ishi Tib pirate was a member of Silvo's crew during the New Republic Era. Around 9 BBY, he took part in a raid on a bulk freighter crewed by New Republic merchants. Finding himself in the second wave of invaders, the Ishi Tib made it in alive, passing by the dead corpses of some of his comrades. Upon boarding, the pirate was shot in his right eyestalk, an injury he quickly shrugged off before gunning down the crewman who had deprived him of the eye.
Although the bulk freighter was successfully intercepted, the shipment the pirates were after proved insufficient compared to the loss of lives they suffered. A subsequent mutiny against Captain Silvo established Brutus as the new leader.
===A cyborg implant===
Under the new leadership, the pirates traveled to Borgo Prime, where the Ishi Tib had a cyborg eye welded onto his injured eyestalk. As another individual carried out the surgery inside a kiosk, the Ishi Tib cried in pain, flailing the medical equipment in the process.
In the meantime, Brutus's pirates had a run in with the Skeleton Crew, which comprised four youngling who had accidentally left their homeworld and found themselves lost in the galaxy. Because the children claimed to hail from the planet At Attin and had an Old Republic credit on them, Brutus ordered arresting them. When in a brig, the Skeleton Crew joined forces with former Captain Silvo, who gave credence to their story and together with them escaped to their starship. However, Silvo soon found that the vessel was stuck on a fuel line, significantly constraining his room for maneuver. Meanwhile, Brutus and his crew—including the Ishi Tib—gathered on the landing platform. The captain ordered using a cannon, but before it could hit Silvo's starship, the former captain jumped into hyperspace and sent the snapped fuel line bouncing back on the platform. As the asteroid drowned in chaos, the Ishi Tib narrowly avoided danger when a loose scaffolding collapsed right in front of him.
