An Abyssin male served as a guard at an outpost on the planet Serenno after it was invaded by Abyssin mercenaries who answered to Count Ramil. The Jedi Dooku and Sifo-Dyas, having traveled to Serenno after Dooku's sister, Lady Jenza, asked for assistance, targeted the outpost in order to acquire a tank. Sifo-Dyas used the Force to create a storm of dust that blinded the Abyssin and his fellow guard Oster, who were then killed by Dooku.
