Malik Argoné was a male Human native of Christophsis who served as a colonel in the planetary army. He first saw action as an infantryman during the Clone Wars when the Confederacy of Independent Systems invaded his home world. By 4 BBY, he was a colonel. Argoné turned against the government due to it being practically a puppet of the Galactic Empire. He created the Free Commanders Movement, which was made up of military personnel that fought against the regime during the Christophsian Revolutionary War. Victory came in 1 BBY with the aid of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Argoné then founded the Christophsian Revolutionary Council, a military junta that ruled the planet.
