Rokko

Rokko was a Hutt crime lord who operated on the planet of Coruscant in 19 BBY. A member of the Besadii clan, he operated mainly in the Yaam Sector, trafficking in stolen merchandise. During this time, he had dealings with the Jedi fugitive Jax Pavan, initially hiring him to track down a Cerean named Toh Revo Chryyx for him. However, in the process of attempting to apprehend the Cerean, Chryyx committed suicide, which led to Rokko refusing to pay Pavan. When Pavan used the Force to defend himself against Rokko's bodyguards, the Hutt alerted sector police to the fugitive's presence, but Pavan was able to defeat the stormtroopers who were sent to arrest him.

Pavan later came to Rokko seeking help in locating the droid 10-4TO, which supposedly had information important to the group Whiplash, a secret resistance organization opposed to the Empire. Rokko agreed to help Pavan, believing that there would be a sizable reward for him. However, after a Sullustan named Den Dhur arrived at Rokko's home with a droid named I-5YQ, who knew Pavan, Rokko suspected Pavan's plea for help was a plot aimed at killing him. Though he had his bodyguards attack the group, he was forced to quickly order them to stand down after I-5 threatened to destroy his prize possessions, decelerated luminescent images, rare pictures of Nal Hutta. Pavan and the others were then able to flee from the Hutt.
