Ak-rev

Ak-rev was a male Weequay drum master and a bodyguard for Jabba Desilijic Tiure. He was born in the Sriluur's capital city of Al-Campur. While on Sriluur, he studied at the Weequay monastery to their god of thunder, Am-Shak. While he was outside the monastery, Ak-rev often fought in the streets of Al-Campur. While on a trip to the desert world of Tatooine, Ak-rev was hired as a bodyguard by the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure, after the Hutt witnessed a fight between Ak and one of Jabba's Gamorrean guards. While in Jabba's employ, Ak would play a large set of drums to back up the Max Rebo Band along with a Klatooinian, Umpass-stay. In 4 ABY, he witnessed the death of one of Jabba's slave dancers, the Twi'lek Oola, for insubordination. After the death of Jabba at the Great Pit of Carkoon at the hands of the Princess of Alderaan, Leia Organa Solo, Ak and Umpass set out across the Dune Sea to Mos Eisley. While making their way across the dunes, the pair was attacked by Tusken Raiders, and Ak was beaten to death by the Sand People.
