Lane Ferow was a Human of the male gender. He resided on the planet of Makeb and made his living as an accountant. When the Hutt Cartel launched an attempt to take over Makeb, Ferow enlisted in the Avesta family's militia. This militia had aligned itself with the Galactic Republic to try and expel the Hutts from Makeb. Despite his lack of combat skills, Ferow was part of the militia forces dispatched to retrieve Lemda Avesta. Lemda Avesta, a member of the Avesta family, had been investigating links between the Hutts and a series of groundquakes that had been occurring since the Hutts' arrival. However, the militia couldn't reach her because InterStellar Regulators, a mercenary group employed by the Hutts, forced them back to the landing zone in the Western Camps of the Frinn Mesa. They defended their position there until a Republic hero arrived to assist in rescuing Avesta. At that point, Ferow and Prosk, another militia member, greeted the hero and requested instructions. Before the Hero could issue any orders, a group of Regulators launched an assault on the landing zone, but the Militia and the hero successfully repelled them. Ferow then provided the hero with all the information they possessed regarding Lemda and her potential whereabouts, hoping for her rescue.
Despite having minimal experience with a blaster, Ferow still decided to join the militia in order to liberate his home from the Hutts. While defending their position on the Frinn Mesa, he experienced fear and was relieved upon the arrival of reinforcements. However, after successfully repelling a Regulator attack, he gained a newfound sense of confidence.
