Lechee, a Gran male merchant, lived within the Vargo Spaceport located on the planet Varkana. Unknown to most, he served as a clandestine operative for the First Order, facilitating the movement of their goods and resources via black market routes. Upon discovering the true identity of Norath Kev, a Resistance spy, he informed the bounty hunter known as Ax Tagrin.
The character Lechee made his debut in "The Missing Agent," a 2019 installment of the Star Wars Resistance television series, with Fred Armisen providing the vocal performance. His name is an homage to Leland Chee, a member of the Lucasfilm Story Group, who also supplied a stand-in recording of the character's lines.
