Legend

a smuggling overlord and contemporary of Talon Kaarde, Billey ran much of the black market bacta on Coruscant shortly after the planet was liberated from Ysanne Isard. It was believed that he was a native of Corellia, although Billey himself never revealed his origins. He was something of a legend among smugglers, surviving in the profession for more than sixty years. He believed that he was his own good-luck charm, since he seemed to be able to escape from any possible situation. His luck lasted a few years, until he was injured in a botched spice run during the height of the New Order. He was imprisoned at the Goshyn Detention Center, where he refused cybernetic replacements for his most-damaged parts. Billey spent much of his life in a repulsorchair in order to get around, and was forced to trust in his lieutenants - Brask, Par'tah, Ellor, and Dravis - to do most of his negotiations and business travels.
