Beatas was a Klatooinian mercenary with dark green skin, functioning as the leading operative within Ploovo's Protocol Team.
Beatas's early life involved acts of juvenile delinquency, yet he was fortunate in that he never experienced slavery. Upon reaching adulthood, he commenced employment as an enforcer for various criminal entities. During this period, the light emitted by the Timja Suns resulted in his eyebrows acquiring a yellow hue. His arsenal included a heavy blaster pistol and grenades. At one point, he was in the employment of Thar Lasan, a Gotal loan shark, and his enterprise situated within the Corporate Sector. Following Lasan's unforeseen demise, his organization was absorbed by that of Ploovo Two-For-One's, circa 5 BBY. As a consequence of being one of Lasan's resources, Beatas began his service under Ploovo. Ploovo then placed Beatas in Ploovo's Protocol Team, where he was tasked with the collection of debts. Beatas came to find immense satisfaction in this role: When encountering a debtor who had defaulted on a payment, Beatas would assault the individual until the required funds "miraculously" materialized. At times, even the debtor was perplexed by the sudden appearance of the money. Furthermore, Beatas held a particular fondness for the term "miraculous," considering it his preferred and most lengthy word. His enjoyment of his duties fostered a strong sense of loyalty towards Ploovo.
