Legend

this man was the king of the daylight side of a remote planet, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He worried that peace would never come to the two sides of the planet, and that his own daughter, Princess Risa, would no produce a male heir. When Han Solo crash-landed on the planet, he provided Cleroff with a plan to solve all his problems. Han arranged to have Prince Gil kidnapped by other brigands, so that King Cleroff could pay his ransom and make Gil's family indebted to him. In this way, Cleroff could demand Gil's marriage to Princess Risa as recompense. He didn't count on his own brother, the vizier Marius, plotting to voerthrow him, but he gladly accepted Han's help in eliminating any threats.
