Kale Longo, known in the Imperial criminal system as Inmate ICN 544450, was a prisoner on-board the Imperial prison barge Purge alongside his brother, Trig Longo. The barge broke down during its mission to transport a shipment of prisoners to a detention moon. Kale and his brother were two of six survivors on-board the Purge after a recon team contracted and spread the disease from a nearby derelict Star Destroyer.

[edit] Purge
Kale was captured along with his brother, Trig, and father, Von, during a routine sweep made my an Imperial patrol. Accused of smuggling, the three were placed aboard the Purge, which would transport them and 500 other inmates to an outlying penal moon. During the voyage, Von managed to establish an uneasy relationship with the leader of the Delphanian Face Gang, Sixtus. The gang agreed to leave Von and his family alone, provided Von would be able to supply the group with stolen weapons and equipment. After Von's death, Kale attempted to continue dealings. Upon meeting with te gang, Kale learned that Sixtus had been killed, with his right-hand man, Aur Myss, taking his place. The Delphanian betrayed them and ordered his men to kill the brothers. Kale grabbed several piercings in Myss' face, wounding him and supplying them with enough time to escape to the upper levels of the "Purge." In retaliation, Myss placed a ten thousand credit bounty for the death of Trig and Kale. Myss also bribed a guard and was transferred to a cell adjacent to Kale and Trig's.
When the plague eventually reached the Purge, the brothers were unaffected. Hearing screams and smelling the dead bodies in the cells around them as other inmates, such as the Rodians in the cell accross the hall from them, and guards fell victim to the plauge. At some point, a guard ran past their cell with a bloody cut in his isolation suit, though they saw no one after that and the brothers were not receiving food. Trig was frightened and Kale did all he could to soothe him as well as tried to get him to talk about what happened to their father Von Longo, though to no avail. During this time, Kale wrote an unfinished and unsigned letter to Von and hid it under his mattress, though Trig found the letter and added content to it without his brother's knowledge.
Wembly's last act was to open the cell doors. Kale and Trig were almost immediately attacked by Aur Myss. Kale thrust a knife through Myss's skull, killing him. The two brothers made their way to an escape pod, but encountered Jareth Sartoris. The prison guard left in the pod, leaving Kale and Trig behind. They made their way to the escape pod on the other side of the Purge, but couldn't access it without the launch codes. They ran to the command center, fleeing the dead who had arisen due to the plague. Kale was bitten by the body of his father, Von Longo. He escaped and they boarded the Vector, along with Zahara Cody, Han Solo, and Chewbacca.
[edit] Vector
Kale was unable to walk due to the bite and so stayed behind with Cody while Han, Chewbacca, and Trig went to the command center to disable the tractor beam. Once the beam was disabled, they planned to take one of the ships in the Star Destroyer and escape. The bite from his dead father was affecting Kale, and soon a large chunk of flesh was gone from his leg. It began spreading up his body, but Cody cut into his abdomen and removed the fluid that was killing him. However, the zombies, now carrying blasters, made their way to Cody and Kale and began firing at them. Kale told her to leave him, but she refused. She ran, dragging Kale along with her. Kale was killed by a bolt that hit him in the face. Cody dropped his body and left.
[edit] Death and zombies
Kale's body was infected with the plague and arose from the dead. Trig came across Kale, and only seeing half his face, did not yet realize his older brother was dead. Trig followed Kale into a room full of dead bodies. Trig escaped through a ventilation shaft, but was followed by Kale. Kale dropped on top of Trig and tried to bite him. Realizing his brother was dead and there was nothing to change the fact, Trig pushed Kale out of the vent, plunging hundreds of meters down.
