Legend

this Toydarian ostensibly ran a small shop on Treasure Ship Row, on Corellia, during the last decades of the Old Republic. A close friend of Rostek Horn and nejaa Halcyon, Lorfo often used his underground contacts to help the pair locate an individual or solve a crime. When Aayla Secura and Ylenic It'kla arrived on the planet to recover Ratri Tane, it was Lorfo who first greeted them by trying to buy a drink for Aayla. She politely refused, but later accepted his help in reaching the lair of Tendir Blue. Lorfo, who was working with Horn and Halcyon to ensure Tane's survival, pretended to play both ends against the middle by alerting Blue to the presence of the Jedi. This allowed Halcyon to pretend to be the real Ratri Tane, and to allow Blue the opportunity to reclaim the prototype Tane carried and "kill" Tane. Lorfo then pretended to help Blue escape the Jedi, until Blue betrayed him and left him to be "arrested," completing the ruse and giving the Techno Union the false impression that they had nothing to fear from the Old Republic.
