Sly Moore was a laconic political advisor from the planet Umbara. At some point during the final years of the Galactic Republic, an assassin of the Zabrak species abducted Sly and imprisoned her somewhere within the Cron Drift. The spirits of long-dead Sith Lords discovered her, and tormented her, spiritually assaulting her on a regular basis until a living Sith, Palpatine, discovered her and freed her from her prison. Palpatine cared for Sly in the coming months and the two grew quite close to one another. He learned of Sly's Umbaran mental abilities and confessed to possessing acute psychic prowess of his own. He eventually revealed that he was the Sith Lord known as Darth Sidious and presented Moore with his plans to bring order to the galaxy.

Sly Moore remained close to Palpatine for several years and the older man took the Umbaran under his wing. It is believed that he may have nurtured her latent psionic abilities and trained her in the ways of the Dark Side of the Force.

When Palpatine was elected to the office of the Supreme Chancellor in 32 BBY, she became his administrative aide. Sly kept a close vigil on the members of the Galactic Senate and was even known to impersonate Palpatine's Darth Sidious persona to keep dissidents in line.

Sly was present at the Chancellor's office in 22 BBY when Palpatine learned about a failed attempt to assassinate Padmé Amidala.

She stood by Palpatine's side three years later when he revealed the declaration of his New Order and established the First Galactic Empire. Sly Moore became one of the newly-Christened Emperor Palpatine's elite inner circle.

One of her first missions under the new regime was to go to the planet Byss where she attempted to convert captured Padawans from the Agricultural Corps to the dark side of the Force.
