Rill

Rill was an Espirion who held the title of consul on his homeworld of Espirion during the war between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, he helped to arrange a meeting between Beon Beonel, the chief of Espirion's Alder-Espirion hybrid population, and two representatives of Princess Leia Organa of the planet Alderaan, Jora Astane and Uwa Pareece.

The representatives hoped to persuade Beonel and his people to join Organa's forces, as all Alderaanians were being hunted by the Empire following their homeworld's destruction. However, their efforts failed after Beonel realized that Astane was disgusted by his mixed ancestry. At the representatives' urging, Rill tried to organize further talks and was eventually persuaded to promise Beonel that Organa would meet him personally, but the chief was uninterested.
