A Jablogian born on Nar Shaddaa , Azmorigan was a crime lord who operated in the Outer Rim Territories near the planet Lothal . He owned a C - ROC " Gozanti " - class cruiser called " Merchant One " and had several masked minions . He was a known associate of the Devaronian crime lord Cikatro Vizago . In 4 BBY , Azmorigan did business with the galactic entrepreneur Lando Calrissian , trading him a puffer pig in return for the Twi ' lek pilot Hera Syndulla . Syndulla , however , outsmarted Azmorigan and knocked him and his men out . She then escaped the crime lord ' s ship in an escape pod and returned to her own ship , the " Ghost " , where she rejoined Calrissian and her rebel crew . Seeking vengeance , Azmorigan then tracked Syndulla and Calrissian down to a plot of land that Calrissian had purchased from Vizago , and demanded the return of the Twi ' lek and the pig as well as the " Ghost " and its crew . When the rebel crew refused , Azmorigan and his men attacked them , sparking a gun battle . During the battle , Azmorigan ' s henchmen were overwhelmed by the the crew of the " Ghost " with several being killed . At the height of the fighting , Azmorigan took the Lasat rebel Garazeb Orrelios hostage and offered to spare him if the rebels surrendered Calrissian . However , the astromech droid Chopper fired on him with the " Ghost " turret cannon ; knocking him to the ground . Now at the mercy of the rebels , Azmorigan accepted an ultimatum from Syndulla to leave Calrissian ' s compound . He and his two remaining henchmen then fled into the night . Settling old scores . Later that year , Azmorigan ordered a shipment of five power generators from Cikatro Vizago . The two gangsters arranged to rendezvous on the icy planet of Nixus . However , on the way , Vizago was incapacitated and imprisoned in his own ship the " Broken Horn " by the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka . Later , Ohnaka was joined by the rebels Ezra Bridger and Chopper , who had encountered Azmorigan during an earlier adventure with Calrissian . Upon arriving at Nixus , Azmorigan took Ohnaka and Ezra captive since he distrusted them showing up without Vizago ; possibly intending to double cross Vizago originally if the opportunity presented itself . Azmorigan knew that the Rang Clan had placed a bounty on Ohnaka ' s head and recognized Ezra as part of the rebel group that had aided Calrissian . Azmorigan ordered his men to load Ezra and Ohnaka into a loading dolly , where they would deposited into space . He was delighted because he had a chance to settle the score with Ezra and eliminate Ohnaka and also to seize their generators . However , Chopper attacked him with the fifth crate , knocking his men over . During the ensuing blaster battle , Azmorigan opened fire on Chopper . Taking advantage of the confusion , Ezra broke free and used his lightsaber to shoot stun shots at the henchmen . Chopper also entered the fray by firing two blasters at Azmorigan and stealing his credit s . After rescuing Ohnaka , Ezra , Chopper and the pirate escaped into space on the " Broken Horn " . Treasure hunting on Wynkahthu . In 2 BBY , Azmorigan obtained the flight plan and manifest for an Imperial Class four container transport transiting near the planet Wynkahthu . He learned that the transport was ferrying proton bomb s and treasure from worlds plundered by the Empire . Azmorigan struck a deal with Hondo to raid the cargo ship . Hondo and his Ugnaught crew managed to disable the ship with ion mine s . However , the ship drifted into the stormy upper atmosphere of Wynkahthu . After losing most of his Ugnaught crew with the exception of Melch , Hondo solicited the services of the Lothal rebel cell . Upon boarding the rebels ' ship " Ghost " , Azmorigan received a cold reception from the Spectres particularly Hera , who remembered him as the bag of " bantha fodder " who bought her from Lando . Azmorigan responded that she was the feisty one who had hit him with a tray and claimed that he still technically " owned " her . The Spectres , at the urging of Ezra , agreed to support Hondo ' s plan after learning about the presence of proton bombs on the container transport ; something that the rebellion needed desperately . The rebels agreed to take the bombs while Hondo and Azmorigan agreed to divide the spoils from the treasures among themselves . Due to his overweight physique , Azmorigan struggled to climb down the stairs which led to the " Ghost " cargo bay . Hondo tried to dissuade his partner by claiming that he was frail . However , Azmorigan threatened not to let the recovery mission go ahead if he was not part of the recovery team . The rebels managed to leap onto the hull of the cargo ship and board it through a manhole . Inside , Azmorigan , Hondo , and the rebels encountered a furious Melch , who attacked Hondo for abandoning him . At the insistence of the rebel team ' s leader Zeb , Hondo revealed that he had made an unsuccessful attempt to board the cargo ship . Later , Azmorigan , Hondo , and the rebels managed to find their way to the cargo bay . While Azmorigan and Hondo helped themselves to the loot , the rebels used the ship ' s grappling guns to fire tow cables onto the " Ghost " . They then began loading the proton bombs aboard their ship . While the rebels were loading , Azmorigan was accosted by an Imperial sentry droid , which had been reactivated when the rebels ' astromech droid Chopper reactivated the ship ' s power plant . He was locked in the ship ' s brig . When Zeb went to find him , he too was taken captive and stun ned by the droid . Ezra and Chopper managed to free Azmorigan and Zeb from the brig . Together , the four made their way back to the cargo bay only to encounter the sentry droid . Despite Zeb ' s orders to keep low , Azmorigan disabled the droid with his blaster pistol and loudly exclaimed that he was a " hero " . However , his actions activated the four remaining sentry droids , which pursued the rebels , Hondo , and Azmorigan . While the rebels fought the sentry droids , Azmorigan and Hondo raced on their treasure chests back to the " Ghost " . The rebels and their confederates managed to escape the droids before the cargo ship crashed into the vortex and exploded . Once aboard the " Ghost " , Azmorigan and Hondo fought over their treasure chests only to discover that Melch had smuggled himself aboard one of them . At Hera ' s insistence , Azmorigan , Hondo , and Melch returned to Hondo ' s stolen Imperial landing craft with their loot . Personality and traits . Azmorigan was extremely lazy , only walking when necessary . He loved to eat , this being one of his favorite pastimes , and he had a large number of men to do things for him . He was also impatient , hot tempered , and rather gullible . Azmorigan had a weakness for the opposite gender , a trait that was exploited by Lando Calrissian during his scam to obtain a puffer pig . As a crime lord , Azmorigan was vindictive and unforgiving towards those who had wronged him . On one occasion , he and his henchmen invaded Calrissian ' s compound on Lothal and attempted to kill him after Calrissian swindled him . On another occasion , Azmorigan ordered the attempted killing of the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka and the rebel Ezra Bridger since the two had wronged him in the past . While Azmorigan had limited combat skills , he was able to take Garazeb Orrelios hostage on one occasion with a blaster . However , he often let his henchmen do most of the fighting . Due to his weight , Azmorigan had trouble walking and exercising for long distances . However , he was willing to endure hardship in order to reap pecuniary gain . Azmorigan also had a high - pitched singing voice . While Azmorigan was known to be cowardly , he once single - handed took on an Imperial sentry droid out of fear . Destroying the droid gave Azmorigan the sense of accomplishment that he was a " hero . " Azmorigan was motivated by profit and fought with Hondo for his share of stolen treasure from an Imperial cargo ship . Despite his antagonistic earlier encounter with the Spectres , he was willing to work with them in order to obtain treasure for himself . Despite his lazy nature , Azmorigan was nonetheless able to manage an RK - 3 blaster pistol . Behind the scenes .
