Sorran
this man was the pirate captain who staged an assault on Naboo's TFP-9 space station, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. He commanded the assault from his flagship, the Velumina. He claimed to have been employed by Challep, the planetary governor of Agamar, who wanted to obtain several of the Naboo N-1 starfighters and a Naboo Police Cruiser, in an effort to reverse-engineer the Nubian drives and bolster his own security force. Sorran was told that Dren Melne, a member of Naboo's Bravo Squadron, would assist in obtaining the starships. However, Dren didn't count on resistance from Essara Till and the loyal Naboo pilots of Echo Flight. When it became apparent that Dren would be unable to deliver the starfighters, Sorran ordered Dren's own ship destroyed, in an effort to remove any link back to his employers. The Velumina then jumped into hyperspace and disappeared.
