Kortanio

Kortanio was a Kessurian member of the Path of the Open Hand cult who ventured into the Galactic Frontier in service to the Path and was not present when the cult met its violent end on its home planet Dalna in 382 BBY. At some point between the Path's dissolution and around 381 BBY, Kortanio and their partner Esstrop were among the few Path members tracked down by the pirate leader and former Path member Marda Ro and joined her group. Ro subsequently showed them a creature called the Great Leveler.

Kortanio served Ro as a pirate alongside Esstrop, the human Milan Stor, and the Twi'lek Fori Nagor. At some point no earlier than 379 BBY, they undertook a raid on a refugee camp. Nagor presented refugees captured by the raiders during the attack to Ro in the Gaze throne hall, but Ro ordered her to set them free. Kortanio and Esstrop later escorted the Evereni twins Vika and Velya Faer to the throne hall for a meeting with Ro. At some point, Ro mentioned Kortanio in a recording she made for her descendants, to which her great-great-grandson Marchion Ro had listened by 252 BBY.
