Legend

this female Twi'lek and her husband, Jer, feared that their son, Ree, had become entangled in the criminal underworld surrounding Podracing, during the early years of the New Order. The Blankuna's concern for their son was actually part of a ruse, however, as Jer was secretly working for the Desilijic Hutts. Jer and Gelune were charged with locating a team of freelance agents to "rescue" Ree, in an effort to get closer to Kaeline Ungasan without alerting him to the presence of Desilijic agents. The Blankuna's, in fact, had no biological children. They engaged the freelancers during a series of interviews run from the Blankuna mansion, which orbitted the planet Alderaan. After the agents broke up Ungasan's hold on Ando Prime, the Blankunas were relocated by the Hutts, and the freelance agents were never paid.
