Kocte Maard was a male Chev mercenary. Initially enslaved by Chevin masters, he was freed through the machinations of Takro, for whom he became a bodyguard in gratitude. Kocte acted as the muscle to draw attention from and deter threats to Takro, often carrying multiple blasters and sometimes a disruptor on his person.
Kocte accompanied Takro to meet with Dolre Thyle and Crile Craetor on Feriae Junction in 1,384 BBY; he distrusted the two Sith, but spent the majority of the meeting passively alert for threats.
