Evet Scy'rrep, a notorious starship pirate, managed to commandeer more than fifteen sizable vessels before his capture, amassing a fortune in the millions. His reasoning for exclusively targeting opulent passenger liners was simple: "That's where the credits reside."
He was profiled in an episode of Galactic Bandits, a hologram program that a youthful Luke Skywalker enjoyed, developing an admiration for Scy'rrep.
The creation of this character is a tuckerization of Steve Perry, the writer responsible for his introduction in the novel, Shadows of the Empire.
