Legend

this immense bull was one of the Swimming People of Dellalt, living on the planet during the early years of the New Order. Kasarax was also Shazeen's nephew. After Shazeen grew tired of being Top Bull and abandoned the lake, Kasarax named himself the Top Bull. He gained a lot of power over the humans who used the lake, as well as the other sauropteroids, by bullying his way around and charging exorbitant prices for transport while harshly discouraging other Swimmers from operating on the lake. When Han Solo arrived on the planet Dellalt, he asked for transport across the lake after the Millennium Falcon was confiscated by J'uoch's people. Kasarax demanded 40 driit each, a price that enraged Shazeen. The older bull agreed to take Han and his companions across the lake for free, just to show Kasarax that he was out of bounds in his demands. This led to a race and, eventually, physical combat between the two bulls. Kasarax was ultimately bested by Shazeen, and was forced out of power. Shazeen sincerely hoped that Kasarax would come to realize the error of his ways and return to his position as Top Bull, but with a more accommodating attitude toward the other Swimmers as well as to the Dellaltians.
