Legend

this man was an undercover agent who worked for the Empire during the height of the New Order. He held the rank of Commander in the Imperial armed forces at the time of the Battle of Yavin, and was often under the supervision of Darth Vader himself, working to infiltrate the ranks of the Alliance and learn the whereabouts of Alliance bases and personnel. One aspect of his double agent role was to make contacts in the criminal underworld, and Finn was able to earn the respect of the Feeorin pirate Nym. About a year after the Battle of Yavin, Finn was assigned to recover the holocron which had been left behind at the Alliance base on Dantooine. In order to complete the mission, Finn insinuated himself close to Leia Organa, and was able to earn the mission as an Alliance agent. He needed someone who could handle Dantooine's varied ecosystem, and was able to recruit Dusque Mistflier to the Alliance's cause. Unknown to Dusque, Finn accomplished this by having her partner, Tendau Nandon, executed on suspicion of being an Alliance supporter. Finn then preyed upon her emotions, knowing that she would want to avenge the death of her friend. His hunches proved accurate, and they set out on their mission. During the trip to Dantooine and the struggle to find the ancient Jedi base, Finn and Dusque began to fall in love, although neither would admit to it. Finn was at odds with himself over the emotion, since he knew that he would have to either convince to rejoin the Empire or kill her at the end of the mission. On Dantooine, Dusque was able to help him recover the holocron. However, as he tried to download its contents and transmit them to his nearest contact, Dusque discovered his actions and destroyed the holocron. Unable to allow her to return to the Alliance with the knowledge of his betrayal, Finn stabbed Dusque in the chest and then fled. He returned to Vader with only a few of the name hidden on the holocron, and expected to be executed for his failure. Vader, however, sensed a growing anger in him and allowed him to live. Finn retained a place in his heart for Dusque, however, and grudgingly refused to give away the location of the Alliance's base on Corellia.
