Cade Tylinn was a mercenary who worked for the Rebel Alliance. Around the year of 0 ABY, Cade was sent to Nar Shaddaa to rescue an Alliance Corporal named Brian Tonike from the hands of Darth Vader, who was planning to interrogate Tonike in hopes to receive information on the design schematics of a new Alliance warhead. He was then later assigned to rescue large population of Gungan prisoners taken by the Galactic Empire.
