Legend

this rugged man was a mamber of Mirith Sinn's New Republic cell on the planet Phaeda. He was openly suspicious of Kir Kanos, and discovered that Kanos was wanted by Carnor Jax for crimes against the Empire. When Sinn ordered him to back off, Massimo challenged her to a duel for control of the Republic cell. They never got a chance to fight, because Colonel Shev's troops invaded their stronghold, on the information provided by double agent Tem Merkon. Massimo believed Kanos had betrayed them, until Sish Sadeet discovered that the traitor was actually Tem Merkon. Massimo executed Merkon by stabbing him in the heart. He then led the flight and defense of the base at Collo Fauale, holding on until the Lusankya arrived to defeat the Steadfast. He then flew the Phaeda's Hope to the huge ship, and requested a shuttle to follow Sinn to Yinchorr, where he could apologize for assaulting her. He arrived too late to save Sish Sadeet, but managed to recover Mirith. She then fled the New Republic, joining Grappa the Hutt in an effort to locate Kir Kanos. Massimo followed her, and offered to tell Grappa about her true motives for the right price. Massimo told Grappa that Mirith had been spying on his organization, in an attempt to break up the pirate raids he had been staging on New Republic ships. When Grappa caught Sinn, he had both Mirith and Massimo turned over to the Zanibar for their dealings.
