Codo was human male who was a member of Saw Gerrera's rebel cell, the Partisans, during Jyn Erso's time in the cell before being abandoned by Gerrera in 5 BBY. Codo taught Jyn how to swim but would not talk to Jyn after being refused when he tried to kiss her. After being brought back to Gerrera's base in the Catacombs of Cadera following the Battle on Jedha, Jyn asked a human female about Codo, to which the women responded by putting an imaginary blaster to her head and pulled the trigger, conveying that he had died.
