Kebbo Kebbo was a Rodian male who served as the Chief Magistrate of the Pembric Security Legion in 8 ABY . A career criminal , Kebbo was also a member of crime lord Crev Bombaasa ' s cartel on the planet Pembric II in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories , and the Security Legion operated in the cartel ' s best interests . In 8 ABY , Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne was removed from power in the sector by the New Republic . Bombaasa moved to take control of Pembric II , establishing a puppet government that proclaimed pro - Imperial loyalties to deter New Republic overtures . Kebbo , in his role as head of the Security Legion , enforced Bombaasa ' s will , arranging for the crime lord ' s enemies to be detained and keeping the population under control by denying them the right to travel off - world by making it expensive to leave . The same year , Kebbo and Security Legionnaires under his command encountered an undercover landing party from the New Republic CR90 corvette " FarStar " when they landed on the planet seeking Breslin Drake , the manager of the ThrusterBurn Tapcafe . The Rodian was aware of the party ' s allegiance , information that had been provided to him by Bombaasa , and had been sent to ascertain their intentions while on - planet . He later escorted the delegation to a meeting with Bombaasa himself , where he unsuccessfully attempted to arrest them under suspicion of obtaining transit visa s without paying for them . Biography . Kebbo was a male Rodian who resided on the planet Pembric II in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories . A member of crime lord Crev Bombaasa ' s criminal cartel , he made a name for himself through acts of theft , intimidation , protection , and robbery . By 8 ABY , Kebbo was the Chief Magistrate of the Pembric Security Legion , Pembric II ' s law enforcement agency . Although outwardly resembling an actual police force , the Security Legion was massively corrupt . When the local Imperial warlord , Moff Kentor Sarne , was ejected from his capital on Kal ' Shebbol by the New Republic , his control over the planets in the sector was broken . The Bombaasa Cartel stepped in and took over governance of the Pembric system , installing a puppet government that feigned loyalty to the Empire in a bid to keep the New Republic out of the system . Under the Cartel ' s control , the Security Legion began to operate as a law enforcement organization again , but it mainly benefited Bombaasa and his operations . Kebbo ' s role as Chief Magistrate gave him broad powers to detain the Cartel ' s enemies . With the Bombaasa Cartel in control of the planet , strict emigration rules were enacted to stop citizens from leaving Pembric II . Expensive transit visa s and exit pass es were required for individuals to depart from the planet . Kebbo was known to promise to arrange transport for those able to pay , then strand them at the spaceport with no money and no way to support themselves . Not long after Sarne was ousted from his capital , the New Republic CR90 corvette " FarStar " entered the Pembric system in search of a man named Breslin Drake , hoping that he would be able to direct them to someone who could assist with technical problems they were having with their ship . Aware of Pembric II ' s reputation , the commander of the " FarStar " , Captain Kaiya Adrimetrum , chose to send an undercover team posing as illegal arms merchants under the nominal command of Twi ' lek procurement specialist Loh ' khar the Finder . The " FarStar " " Aegis " - class combat shuttle , stripped of New Republic markings , was used as their transport . However , one of the Cartel ' s mining outposts in the Pembric asteroid field recorded their arrival . Kebbo was sent to meet the shuttle at the spaceport ' s Pad 642 and was aware that the crew were New Republic agents . He was authorized to answer the crew ' s questions , albeit not entirely truthfully , and to ascertain their reason for being on the planet . Kebbo was not to reveal that he knew their allegiance , and he was instructed to ensure that the delegation " disappeared " if needed . After collecting their landing fee , Kebbo — for a further fee — directed the New Republic delegation to Drake , who was the manager of the ThrusterBurn Tapcafe . The Rodian also suggested that , for a fee of 1 , 000 credits , he could arrange for security measures to be taken to ensure the safety of their ship , noting that theft often occurred when the measures were not taken . As the negotiations concluded , a disturbance by civilians wanting to leave the planet demanded Kebbo ' s attention ; several other Security Legionnaires used their blaster rifle butts as clubs to subdue the crowd , and Kebbo gave orders to shoot any protester who did not leave the landing area . After giving the delegation directions to the ThrusterBurn , Kebbo detailed a pair of Legionnaires to escort them . Unbeknownst to him , the Legionnaires were , in fact , deep cover agents loyal to Moff Sarne . Although the Bombaasa Cartel had attempted to purge the planet of Imperial loyalists following Sarne ' s defeat at Kal ' Shebbol , some remained in hiding . The two Imperial agents , along with five thugs , attempted to capture Loh ' khar and his companions . The New Republic crew fought back , subduing their attackers and retrieving a data plaque from one of the agents that contained transit visas . Kebbo , backed by a squad of Legionnaires , later traveled to the ThrusterBurn , interrupting the New Republic delegation ' s conversation with Drake . The Chief Magistrate informed them that Crev Bombaasa wished to see them , and made sure to convey the suggestion that the invitation could not be turned down . Bombaasa met them in the ThrusterBurn ' s casino and revealed that he knew of their allegiance . After presuming that they did not have the authority to negotiate a deal to keep the New Republic out of the Pembric system , he invited them to leave the planet but mentioned that the travel visas would be expensive . Kebbo , who had noticed that the two Legionnaires he had assigned to escort the delegation had disappeared , prepared to search the crew for the transit visas that the guards had been carrying . The New Republic delegation resisted , and a fight broke out . Drake and his bouncers waded in on the New Republic ' s side , helping them to escape . Shortly thereafter , the New Republic team was successful in liberating a slicer named Gaelin from Bombaasa ' s incarceration to help them with their technical problems , and subsequently fled the planet . Personality and traits . Kebbo was a violent and ruthless individual , but his loyalties could be bought , and he tended to side with the strongest organization to ensure he remained on the winning side . On Pembric II , he felt that the Bombaasa Cartel was the most stable , reasoning that it had outlasted Imperial rule and would presumably outlast the New Republic as well . Kebbo was courteous and witty , with an eccentric sense of humor , but was also cruel and corrupt and often took bribes . The Rodian was not above insinuating that harm would befall the ships of any visitor to Pembric II if a security fee was not paid in order to secure extra credits for himself . Kebbo was trained to use a blaster , specifically pistols , and carried both a heavy blaster pistol and a hold - out blaster . He was proficient at unarmed combat and was an intimidating and persuasive individual when the need arose . Kebbo knew about alien species , languages , and planetary systems , and was knowledgeable about the value of starships . A competent pilot , Kebbo was able to fly capital ships , smaller vessels , and starfighters , and could navigate them through hyperspace . He was also able to operate the on - board sensor , weapon , and deflector shield systems . In addition , he could operate ground vehicles , hover vehicles , and repulsorlift vehicles . The Rodian ' s technical skills included the ability to repair a number of vehicles , including capital ships , space transports , starfighters , ground vehicles , and hover vehicles . In addition , Kebbo was also trained to repair capital ship weapon systems and program and repair computers . He had a working knowledge of security systems and carried a security toolkit . A career criminal , Kebbo was stealthy and knew how to con or bargain with other individuals . He was also a skilled forger , specializing in ship IDs . He generally carried a comlink and a credit voucher worth 5 , 000 credits . Behind the scenes . Kebbo first appeared in " Crisis " , the fourth RPG adventure in West End Games ' " The DarkStryder Campaign " , published in 1995 . The adventure was written by Eric S . Trautmann and Paul Sudlow , with illustrations by Tim Bobko .
