Legend

this Duros weapons dealer worked on Coruscant following the Battle of Endor. He made shipping runs with his freighter, Star's Delight. It was known that Nootka liked to read Duros adventure novels, and often used the names of characters and ships within them as aliases in his own business. He was captured on Garqi by Mosh Barris while trying to ship X-Wing parts and proton torpedoes to the New Republic, but was eventually rescued by Corran Horn and Dynba Tesc. Tycho Celchu claimed to be meeting with him at the time Corran Horn claimed to see Celchu talking with Kirtan Loor at The Headquarters. They were supposed to be discussing a supply of Z-95 parts. He disappeared shortly afterward, and could not be found to testify at Celchu's trial. In addition, more than 247 Duros were known to be dead from the Krytos virus, so his wherabouts could not be pinpointed. It was suspected that he was either eliminated by Imperial forces, or was working under an alias. His death was confirmed to Nawara Ven by Kirtan Loor, during their initial meeting at the Hutt Haven.
