Biography

After Valerian and Laureline return to Alpha, Filitt informs them Alpha's center has been infected by an unknown force - where the troopers sent to there and not return. Valerian and Laureline are assigned to protect him. He was later seen torturing a Pearl. During the summit, Pearls start to attack the room and kidnap him to their lair on Alpha. Valerian chases their ship, but loses control and crashlands his vehicle.

The two venture into the area, discovering that it is nontoxic. They reach a shield-like hall where Filitt was there. They met with Pearls' leader, Emperor Haban-Lima, who explains to them his people were living peacefully on their home planet - until a war broke out between humans and an unknown species. Filitt ordered to launch the doomsday weapon to destroy the enemy fleet's mothership, which eventually crashes and destroys the planet. Valerian and Laureline realize that he was the one who destroyed the planet and he admits he had to in order to stop the war.

Filitt then orders his K-Tron robots to attack both Valerian, Laureline, the human soldiers and the Pearls, but they are defeated by the human soldiers. He was later tied up by Valerian and Laureline and found by the remaining troops and reported to the Major, where he orders them to release Filitt to be arrested by the Federation for his crimes, treachery, and betrayal.
