Farks was a Patrolian alive throughout the age of the High Republic Era. This individual, a pal of the pirate queen Maz Kanata, presented her with a vonduun crab skull sourced from Zav Alox; Kanata then chose to keep this skull within her castle located on Takodana. Subsequently, following an infant Aloxian coming under Kanata's guardianship and starting to wear the aforementioned skull, Farks journeyed to Takodana at the pirate's request and informed her regarding the skull's beginnings and the Aloxians themselves.
