Gaib was a young male Human who was the partner and mechanic of TK-0. He and TK specialized in stolen industrial technology as a kind of high tech bounty hunters. They had been hired by Kal Skirata to find someone trying to beat the Republic's cloning ban. Providing information to the Null-class ARCs Mereel and Ordo, the clones were led to a secret cloning base on Dorumaa.
When Jabba the Hutt's son, Rotta, was kidnapped during the Clone Wars, the crime lord hired Gaib and TK-0 to find the location of his son. They successfully traced Rotta's location to Teth. Jabba was so impressed with the pair's work, he kept them on retainer.
