Legend

this Ruurian, a member of the K'zagg colony, was an expert on human history from the Tion Hegemony's pre-Old Republic era, during the early years of the New Order. Skynx was still in his larval stage when Alexsandr Badure approaced him to help translate the log-recorder that Lanni Troujow had recovered from the Queen of Ranroon on Dellalt. His agreement to help Badure came from a yearning to experience a true, human adventure before moving into his pupal stage. In addition to his historical knowledge, Skynx was adept at playing the musical instruments of his people. Skynx proved a valuable asset during the mission to Dellalt, helping to translate the ship's log-recorder and later tricking Gallandro into following him into the Queen of Ranroon's holds. This activated the ship's anti-weapons systems, killing Gallandro before he could kill Han Solo. When the mystery of the Queen of Ranroon was finally uncovered, Skynx left to return to his studies, hoping to complete them before he was forced to spin his cocoon and metamorph into a chroma-wing flier. He also offered Hasti and Badure a job, working with him as transport agents for the university and, after his transformation, as the university's caretakers. Skynx also offered Bollux and Blue Max positions at the university, since they were the only known automatons who had ever interacted with the Guardian Corps.
