Grox

Grox was a male Lasat who led a pirate crew aboard a cruiser during the Galactic Civil War. At one point he lost one of his eyes, which he replaced with a cybernetic eye. Grox's pirate crew regularly sold scavenged goods to the Tech Masters, who paid well for their work. Some time after the Battle of Yavin he encountered Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa as the two searched for the missing medical transport Nema aboard the Millennium Falcon. The pirate cruiser sent out out a distress call, which Skywalker and Organa responded to. When they approached with the Millennium Falcon, the pirate ship captured the YT-1300 light freighter with a clamp, and siphoned its power. Grox then led a boarding party onto the Falcon, consisting of the Nephran Mirack, the Quarren Kragan Gorr and an assassin droid nicknamed PALLAS-Eleven. Finding only an apparently empty ship, due to the Millennium Falcon crew hiding in a secret compartment, Grox ordered his crew to bring the ship to the planet Trionak, where they planned to sell it to the Tech Masters.
