Legend

a native of the planet Entralla, this crimelord suddenly found himself in possession of the Shard of Alderaan computer program, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. He arranged to hold an auction aboard the Dune Princess, hoping that his friendship with Heater would provide him a measure of protection against Jabba the Hutt. Tok was known for his sabacc parties, although he lost more often than he won. Tok owned Jabba a large sum of credits, and hoped to pay off the debt by selling the Shard of Alderaan. Knowing what the program was, Tok invited members of the Alliance and the Empire to participate in the auction, as well as several independent interests. Unfortunately for Tok, the Dune Princess encountered a huge sandstorm and was grounded. During the resulting confusion, he lost control of the datapad which held the code for the Shard of Alderaan. The computer program was lost,and Tok was eventually executed by Jabba's henchmen.
