Kar Ranth

Canon Legends version → Linked from 2 articles

Kar Ranth was a Gotal smuggler who worked as a representative for Jabba the Hutt. He used to be a spice user, but chose to stop using it and remained sober ever since. During the Galactic Civil War, at some point before 1 BBY, Kar Ranth was assigned to conduct business with the Black Sun syndicate on the planet Ylesia.

A squad of rebels who were forced to do Jabba's bidding met up with Ranth at the Mos Eisley spaceport. Ranth briefed the group on the nature of the spice before heading off to Ylesia. The group arrived at the ruins of an ancient structure where the meeting was held. The representative of the Black Sun was Galek, a man who Ranth had injured in the past, and now bore a nasty scar across his left eye. Kar Ranth checked the product and confirmed that everything was accounted for. Before the deal was sealed, the Black Sun's lookout reported TIE fighters inbound. Galek then accused Kar Ranth of drawing the Empire's attention and fatally shot him.
