Legend

this Barabel was the owner of the Night Raider. He was a pirate and smuggler by trade, but would take a passage in order to make an "honest" living. Yarrku would charge an exorbitant fee, and often deliver his passengers into slavery. He once tried to swindle Nyo out of 25,000 credits for transport to Nar Shaddaa, but Kinnin Vo-Shay prevented the young man from wasting his credits. The Herglic Doune then contracted Yarrku and his pirates to intercept Vo-Shay and Nyo. Vo-Shay tricked the Barabel into believing the shields on the Ashanda Ray were down, knowing that the redundant systems would kick in shortly, then sent a bomb out in a probe as "payment" for letting them go free. Yarrku opened fire once the probe was retrieved, only to have the bomb explode just as his ship's blasts bounced off the hull of the Ashanda Ray. Yarrku and his crew were killed in the explosion.
