| Good day. I didn't think I'd see you again. I believed I was boring you. How did you know I would be here? Oh yes. Max Rebo? I should have known. I'm a regular at the Mos Eisley cantinas. I was always the first at the door of Chalmun's Cantina, visiting with my friend, the bartender, Wuher. Anyway, as you know, I have an extensive music collection. When I heard that Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes had arrived on Tatooine to play for Jabba, I tried to get my self onto his good side. I wanted so much to hear the band. But that didn't work out. My plan was fed to the Rancor. I must admit, I was depressed. I retreated to my apartment and recuperated. I went back to Wuher and I had a new plan. I convinced Lady Valarian to choose the Figrin D'an's band to play at her wedding reception. Jabba would be angry if he found out. I informed him. He raided Lady Valarian's reception. She refused to pay the band, for she was infuriated. Wuher wouldn't offer them a job at the cantina. D'an and the band agreed to sign a two year contract at Chalmun's. There, Figrin accepted my challenge to a game of sabacc. When we were done, I owned all of their instruments, except Doikk Na'ts's Fizzz. They weren't able to leave the planet until they had bought all of their instruments back. So I had a concert from my favorite band every day. I was going to be a spy for the empire, but Jabba died, and then there was the destruction of the Second Death Star. So I linger here on Tatooine... sadly. Now, I really must have a drink. |
Have I seen you before? For some strange reason, I believe I've seen you before! Have you ever been to Jabba's palace? Or... the late Jabba's, should I say? I'm Yarna. I'm the daughter of a tribal chieftain on the desert planet Askajia. I danced for the honor of my tribe. We Askajians could hold water in our bodies, swelling, in preperation for dry seasons. I was married to Nauteg, and had four cubs. But when a slave - raiding party came across my village, one of the cubs were killed. The remaining three were taken by the Slavers, along with myself and my husband. We were brought to this planet, to Jabba's palace. My cubs were sold to Mos Eisley's Imperial prefect, Eugene Talmont. My husband stood up to Jabba, but was dropped into the Rancor pit. I heard him screaming... and screaming. I became one of the dancers in Jabba's palace. Many people were cruel, but Jabba never treated me anything but beautiful. I signed an indentured service contract to earn my freedom. The other dancers looked to me as a mother. But I could never bond with them for Jabba killed them all so quickly. Once, there was this girl that Bib Fortuna brought in. Her name was Oola. She refused to dance. Jabba thought it was funny. Bib said that she was a beautiful dancer. I told her not to resist Jabba. But on the third day, she finally danced. It was beautiful. And Jabba had had enough. He dropped her into the Rancor Pit. I turned away. But then a young man claiming to be a Jedi showed up. Soon, Jabba was dead by the hands of an Alderaanian woman. This was my chance to be free. I stole goods from the palace and bought back my children. Now I am free of Jabba. |
Well hello there. You've just sat beside the greatest spy in all of Mos Eisley, did you realize that? Too bad I've told you. You look like an interesting creature yourself. Well anyway, I'm also known as Long Snoot. You can probably tell because of my long nose here. I wear these dark goggles because I am sensitive to red wavelengths of light. I thought maybe you were wondering. I am a Kubaz from my desert planet, Kubindi. Many can't tell because of my long cape that I wear everywhere and this hood over my head. If ever you know who is in need of information I have it... at a price of course. And that's me... I don't think it's wise to tell you anything else. I don't know you. And you won't know me. So I must be going now. |
Hello. I'm Gaerial. I'm from Bakura? You? I was an Imperial Senator on my planet. I was the daughter of one. I was used to hearing the never ending bickering and political machinations. When the Empire attacked my planet, two senators could not cooperate and we fell quickly. My parents were killed along with many others. So I was raised by my aunt and uncle, Tiree and Yeorg Captison. My uncle was aloud to stay on as prime minister, but the role was largley ceremonial. I was elected to the senate, and spent a year training at an imperial Center, doing postgraduate work in government. I finally returned to Bakuran capital city of Salis D'aar to fill my past, just in time for tragedy to strike again. The reptilian Ssi-ruuk invaded. It's all very complicated. If I ever see you again I'll be sure to explain. Good day. |
