Unidentified cape

A red cape was one of several artifacts held as battle trophies by the Slinani at the Migration Shrine Red Mist. Although the cape itself was worth little as an artifact, Minister Pitina Voor of the Galactic Empire's Coalition for Progress discreetly hired the archaeologist Chelli Lona Aphra to acquire the cape in order to manipulate her into stealing the Farkiller weapon as part of the former's plot to assassinate Emperor Palpatine. Aphra, as Voor predicted, foiled the Rebel Alliance's own plans to also use the weapon to assassinate Palpatine, and Voor revealed her plot to the archaeologist. Aphra utilized a slicing kit she had hidden within the cape to hijack a cam droid, exposing Voor's plot to the galaxy.
