Legend

this Bimm was a native of Glastro. He once discovered the wreckage of an Imperial Research and Development vessel on the planet, and salvaged a large quantity of parts and materiel. He eventually sold the stuff to an Alliance operative for a tidy profit, and Glah convinced his brothers to buy a ship and acquire as much valuable salvage as they could. It nearly bankrupted them, but they managed to locate some truly rare items which kept them wealthy and kept their business running. Known as Glah Ubooki's Strange and Wondrous Imports, the shop maintained a mixture of worthless junk and unusual relics. In order to continue to seek out new wares, Glah's brothers helped run the shop. Each brother claimed to be Glah Ubooki, and the real Glah always pretended to know a customer, whether he had actually met them or not. Eventually, all eighteen brothers of Glah's took part in the ruse, and their family prospered.
