Pertaal Shenvehr

On Findris, Shenvehr held the position of Assistant Features Editor for Colonial News Net, a daily publication focused on data. He authored various columns, notably "Ask Argothil Anything," within which he embedded encrypted communications for Rebel Alliance members. Information was provided to Shenvahr by Alliance operatives through questions posed on the Imperial NetPost, which he then integrated into his column using metaphorical language.

An acquaintance working in the Imperial Sector Command on Findris served as Shenvehr's source of intelligence. While Shenvehr's messages were broadly accessible to the Alliance, General Airen Cracken deemed them of limited value due to their complexity. Despite their shared employer, he did not know that Fionna Flannis was also a Rebel operative.

Shenveehr was a Human male of modest stature, standing at only 1.5 meters in height. He sported a beard longer than contemporary fashion dictated and seemed to wear the same business tunic daily. He was not particularly social and approached his editorial responsibilities with great seriousness.

Shenveehr was a skilled journalist with extensive knowledge of the Colonies. He possessed a talent for uncovering information, but he lacked field experience and combat training.

Shenveehr typically carried only a datapad and a recording rod.

Peter M. Schweighofer created Pertaal Shenveehr for Cracken's Rebel Operatives, a supplement for the Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game released by West End Games in 1994. Brian Schomburg provided the illustrations.
