Curao was a male associate of Rogun the Butcher during the Galactic War. In 3640 BBY Rogun sent the Voidhound to meet Curao on Corellia to try and get to Darmas Pollaran and Bevera Dodonna. However, before the smuggler could reach him, Curao foolishly attempted to bribe Republic General Elin Garza and was promptly arrested, forcing the Voidhound to look for other allies on the planet.
