Praetoris Kavan was a Human male who was born on Naboo during the planet's blockading and invasion by the Trade Federation. A child during the Clone Wars, Kavan enrolled in the Imperial Naval Academy at the age of eighteen and graduated with distinction thirty standard months later. Serving as a pilot of TIE/LN starfighters, Kavan proved himself in the eyes of his superiors during the Bombardment of Falleen. After this he was briefly assigned to Black Eight Squadron before being transferred to Darth Vader's personal squadron, Black Squadron, which he was assigned to at the time of the Battle of Yavin. After surviving the battle, Kavan was awarded the Imperial Medal of Valor by Emperor Palpatine personally. Following the disbandment of Black Squadron after Yavin, Kavan co-founded Angriff Squadron, alongside Oeter Zarbo. When Angriff Squadron was requisitioned by Grand Admiral Thrawn two years after Yavin, Kavan was stationed aboard the Chiss' command ship, the Admonitor. One year later, following a series of personnel transfers that separated Angriff Squadron, Kavan reorganised the remainder into Punisher Squadron, recruiting pilots from other squadrons to fill out numbers. Kavan would continue to serve as the commander of Punisher Squadron until his death eight years after Yavin. He was succeeded by Norvan Cheval.
