During the Cold War (between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire), Dugan Cortess, a Lord of House Cortess, was a male Human. Savorin Malfus the Seventh was attempting to gain Dugan's approval.
In Star Wars: The Old Republic, a video game that BioWare launched in 2011, Dugan Cortess is a character featured in the Bounty Hunter mission titled "Spiking the Punch," where he is among those to whom Savorin Malfus requests the player deliver presents. Players have the option to fulfill Malfus's requests to gain light side alignment points; however, considering the Bounty Hunter is an Imperial class and is generally expected to make dark side decisions, this article operates under the assumption that the hunter declined and physically assaulted Malfus.
