Pilar VanDeef was a male Human dwelling on Tatooine in the Galactic Civil War time period. At some point following the Battle of Yavin, he was kidnapped by the White Thranta Shipping Company's criminal element. Kashi VanDeef, his wife, sought a spacer's assistance in saving him, but Pilar was killed.
Pilar VanDeef is present within the directory tree files associated with Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, the 2003 video game that served as a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game. This game was created by Sony Online Entertainment and released by LucasArts, before it was shut down on December 15, 2011. Based on these files, which were implemented with the 2005 "New Game Enhancements," Pilar was intended to be included in a quest from Kashi VanDeef in the Mos Eisley section of the "Legacy Quest." However, it is not believed that Pilar VanDeef ever manifested as a functional non-player character on the live game servers. Still, an emulated image extracted from this character's Interchange File Format shows his potential appearance had he been incorporated into the game.
