Legend

this vindictive Ewok served as Jae Juun's first mate aboard the XR808g and, later, the DR919a, during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He opposed the notion that they should help Han Solo locate the nests of the Colony, and often swore a blue streak about it in Ewokese, if only to vent his frustration. Despite his vehemence, however, Tarfang was extrememly loyal to Jae Junn, and followed his every move with dedication and perseverence. When they were forced to confront the Gorog nest ship near the Tusken's Eye, about a year after the Qoribu Crisis, Tarfang found himself the prisoner of Lomi Plo. Luke Skywalker diverted the mission to destroy the Gorog ship's hyperdrive long enough to catch hold of the Ewok with the Force, then drew Tarfang back to safety. During their escape from the nest ship, Tarfang was able to locate the lost lightsaber of Mara Jade Skywalker, and used it with maniacal glee to cut his way to freedom. In the aftermath of the blockade, Jae Juun and Tarfang found themselves being approached by Admiral Nek Bwua'tu, who offered them positions as intelligence agents. Bwua'tu knew that their knowledge of the Colony, as well as their contacts at Second Mistake Enterprises, put them in a position to gather information about the Killiks. Jae Juun and Tarfang heartily agreed to the offer.
