Legend

this pale blue-skinned humanoid made his home in a remote corner of the galaxy during the height of the New Order, earning a meager sum of credits as an artist. He remained aloof from the rest of the galaxy, preferring to work in solitude. Much of his artwork was created from the cast-off technology of a given society, and the battles of the Galactic Civil War provided him with a wealth of raw material. It also provided him with a vision of himself that was fed by his isolation, a vision in which he singlehandedly brought control to the galaxy. Using specialized droid "bugs", Perek was able to create a form of virus that spread through machinery, transforming it into a violent form of "artwork" that was controlled by Perek. In this way, he planned to take over the galaxy by turning every machine into a tool. These machines would then convert all living creatures into fuel, utterly subjugating the entire galaxy. Perek himself was discovered to be little more than a cyborged head attached to a mechanized frame. It was rumored that Han Solo defeated Perek during the early years of the New Republic, by hitting the mad artist with a Corellian spark grenade that disabled Perek's source of power and rendered Perek inert.
