Bakku was a male Reigat. He was a member of Sleeper Cell V-16 serving the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
Living in Downside, a slum within Fabrillan, which served as the capital city on the planet of Malthor, Bakku toiled as a strongman for the local gang leader, also acting as a bouncer at her establishment. Circa 0 BBY, he provided the brute force for Sleeper Cell V-16, a Rebel Alliance sleeper cell.
With a quiet, intimidating, and anti-social nature, Bakku found himself drawn to the Alliance. This was because they permitted his inherent nature, rather than enforcing regulations and rules upon him, unlike the Galactic Empire.
Bakku was a formidable fighter, possessing remarkable strength and prowess in unarmed combat. Additionally, he demonstrated proficiency with diverse weaponry, including blasters, grenades, and melee weapons.
Bakku typically wielded a Vibro-ax along with a heavy blaster pistol. His hidden weapons stash contained an assortment of explosives and six Fragmentation grenades.
Ted Stark conceived Bakku for Cracken's Rebel Operatives, a supplement released by West End Games in 1994 for the Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. Brian Schomburg provided the illustration of the character.
