3 rings to bind them all!
Some thoughts on possible take-over candidates for Ahayford, Possum permitting and if you want to go that way, A:
1. Captain OKeefe, a white-haired female human. Her and her astromech droid Crash have so far only pilotted the team's spaceship, but she could come out on missions at the drop of a hat, especially if vehicles of some kind are involved. They are right now waiting in our Rebellion spaceship at the city spaceport.
2. A droid being the classical SW slicer character, how about TB itself? Definitively has all the limitations of playing an owned droid (Sloor is its somewhat-legal owner: "Gawt the papers right here!"), and only minimal character sheet changes realistically possible until we reach the end of this adventure segment, but its "awakening" might make for some downright challenging roleplay. Presently with the group.
3. Warrick Raden, a sleazy devaronian. Very little is known about him (and so everything can be made up) except that he's an ex-gang leader, he's rumoured to be a spice addict and constantly tried to get his people invited into Darga the Hutt's organization. The rest of the team is seriously looking down on him right now, so you'd start at a sociological disadvantage. AND he may not survive the current battle (seeing as his death is the other team's "goal" ). Presently with the group.
4. Indirect connection to one of the existing PCs: Sloor has no doubt worked with a number of slicers/muscle during his carreer as a petty criminal, as has Mack in *his* carreer as a SWAT on Alderaan ("computer expert", they would be called then, I guess, working on the right side of the law and all that). Or he could be a Universal Geographics tech/cameraman/mixer/boss that worked under/with/supervised Mir before. Personnal connections in addition or instead of the above are of course a possibilty too (ex-boyfriend/girlfriend, close or distant friend, etc). Combined with "Captured as a slave" or "Reluctant servant of the Empire" this could make a great intro!
(If you want a real shocker, there's also a certain force-sensitive ithorian mentor/protector that's common to both Mir and Sloor's background... )
