Gorto Zaga was an Aqualish of the male variety. He held the position of chief in the Kiffex settlement known as Deadend, and was a frequent patron of the Black Hole cantina located there.
In 30 BBY, he met his end at the hands of Vilmarh Grahrk. Grahrk, along with Quinlan Vos, Zao, and Tholme, was attempting to flee from a force of Anzati warriors. This force, led by Aayla Secura, had launched an assault on the Black Hole cantina.
In at least one instance, the name of Zaga is incorrectly written as Gorto Draga within the Star Wars: Darkness trade paperback.
