Vurrha Jantsk was a Zabrak male who served as the leader of the Jantsk mercenaries, a mercenary group based on the planet Endor.
During the Galactic Civil War, Emperor Palpatine sent an unidentified Imperial spacer on Endor to work with Jantsk in a plot to discredit the Rebel Alliance in the eyes of the monarch of Naboo, Queen Kylantha. The Queen had proven her loyalty many times over to Palpatine, but he eventually came to suspect that her sympathies actually lay with the Rebellion.
Jantsk and his men's mission was to go to the Mid Rim world and attack Queen Kylantha's chambers. Thanks to a falsified datadisk, the attack would then be attributed to the Rebels. On the Emperor's instructions, it was imperative that none of Jantsk's men knew that the Empire was hiring them. When his usefulness came to an end, Jantsk was killed in his base by the Imperial spacer on Palpatine's orders. This way, any connection to the Empire disappeared with Jantsk.
Vurrha Jantsk was a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. Vurrha Jantsk was added to the game with the revamped "Imperial Theme Park," released with the "Chapter 6.12" update, on September 13, 2007.
