Tweigar

The Tweigar was a freighter owned and operated by Captain Gormo just prior to the Onderon Civil War.

While visiting Onderon on business, the Tweigar landed in Iziz and Gormo's starport visa was stolen while he was in the city. Stranded without a starport visa in Iziz, Gormo was unable to travel back offworld or even return to his ship at the starport. Unsympathetic Onderonian soldiers refused to allow Gormo through the starport entry checkpoint, even after the Tweigar's crew came out and vouched for him, confirming he was their captain. The stubborn adherence of the Onderonian soldiers to protocol- that no one could enter the starport without a starport visa- infuriated Gormo and in conversation with Meetra Surik, he vowed that if he succeeded in leaving Onderon, he would never be coming back.
