Legend

this Twi'lek was a supporter of the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. He claimed to be a former slave who escapde from captivity on his homeworld of Ryloth and set out on his own, becoming an independent spacer. Many believed that he had actually fled Ryloth in order to escape a conspiracy against him. Loh'khar arranged to transport Alliance operatives from Kelada to Gelgelar. He eventually became a member of the crew of the FarStar, during its search for Moff Sarne. He had been on Kal'Shebbol when Page's Commandos launched their assault on Moff Sarne's stronghold, and shot down Loh'khar's ship by accident. Loh'khar joined the crew for two reasons: to get his ship repaired, and to exact a measure of revenge on Sarne. Loh'khar always wore a heavy cloak which was filled with pockets, and the pockets were always full of small tools and datacards full of information. Loh'khar always travelled with the three Turazza sisters, Nizzal, Rizzal, and Vizzal, whom he had raised since they hatched from their eggs while he was visiting Galliwig's Cantina. When Nizzal defected with Khzam, Loh'khar felt betrayed and hurt. However, much of this was a facade used to cover his plans to defect from the FarStar, which he had developed with Gorak Khzam. The two aliens planned to discovered the source of the DarkStryder artifact and sell it to the highest bidder, splitting the profits with Khzam. To this end, Loh'khar took possession of a battered YT-1300 freighter at Q'Maere and ordered Cobb Unser to get it spaceworthy again. However, their efforts were ultimately thwarted, and Loh'khar disappeared.
