Shoja Ko, a male human, held the position of crime lord within the Zenowai Crime Society. This occurred during the time of the Galactic Civil War period known as the Iron Blockade. Ultimately, Shoja, along with other emissaries of the Zenowai Crime Society, became the target of a young smuggler who was contracted for their assassination.
The initial introduction of Shoja Ko to the Star Wars universe was in Star Wars: Uprising, a mobile game released in 2015.
