Legend

this Talz worked as a test pilot for Trinkatta Starships, in the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Boll Trinkatta assumed that Bama had been killed when Bartokk assassins working for Groodo the Hutt stole the droid-equipped starfighters that Trinkatta's corporation was building. In reality, Bama Vook had slaved the starfighters together and "stolen" them himself, in order to ensure that the Trade Federation didn't take possession of them. In order to better communicate, Bama Vook wore a voice translation unit on a thick collar around his neck. After taking the droid starships, Bama Vook disguised himself with an eyepatch, in hopes of escaping notice long enough to find the Jedi Knights who had come to Esseles. Qui-Gon Jinn soon realized that it was Bama Vook who had alerted Adi Gallia to the presence of the Trade Federation on Esseles, and the building of the droid starfighters. When he stole the starfighters, Bama Vook also obtained a prototype hyperdrive developed by the Neimoidians, presumably for use the starfighters.
