Dengless Rinn Dengless Rinn was a male Human official of the Galactic Empire , serving as the prefect of the planet Kallistas . An ambitious bureaucrat with a high opinion of his skills , Rinn coveted a higher rank . However , his superior , Governor Linrec , didn ' t share Rinn ' s estimate and thus did not offer Rinn any such promotion . Rinn hired bounty hunters to fight both the local agents of the Alliance to Restore the Republic , including Rinn ' s arch - nemesis Pallas Quintell , and pirates such as Jondrell Inx . He also resorted to these kinds of agents as part of a plot to topple and replace Linrec . The Empire discovered the scheme before it could succeed , and the civil servant became a fugitive . Authorities believed he was hiding in the Outer Rim Territories . Biography . Dengless Rinn , a Human male and an official of the Galactic Empire , was the Imperial prefect of the mining planet Kallistas . He believed he was overqualified for his own job and desired a promotion . Rinn ' s superior , Governor Linrec , thought that this opinion was exaggerated and therefore did not offer the Prefect a promotion . Rinn saw Linrec as the individual responsible for his career stagnation and thus despised him . For years , Rinn ' s public nemesis was Pallas Quintell , an agent of the Alliance to Restore the Republic . Eventually , a bounty was posted on Quintell ' s head , and novice bounty hunters Sirenas Firil and Chandrex Grenn captured the Rebel . When Linrec arranged his daughter Cressis ' s wedding to Moff Raiss , Rinn , who considered himself a potential fiancé for her , thought that Governor Linrec had devised the wedding only to insult Rinn personally . To this end , the Prefect decided to conspire against Linrec . Rinn contacted an organization of bounty hunters and soldiers of fortune , the Mantis Syndicate , and made an order for a company of mercenaries that included demolition specialists . Mantis arranged a meeting between Rinn and smuggler Tarquin Zian , who could provide Rinn with several loads of weaponry and gear . In exchange for these services , Rinn offered Zian some Kallistan gem s that the Prefect had obtained illegally . Rinn also ordered his men to create fission bomb s from radioactive minerals in the mines of Kallistas . Rinn intended to end the preparations and then declare himself dictator of Kallistas , despite the fact that such a move would prompt Linrec to send his troops to Kallistas to arrest Rinn . The Prefect intended to allow Linrec ' s soldiers to land , overwhelm them with his mercenaries , and threaten them with the bombs . Following his plan , the troops would then surrender , allowing Rinn to access their transport . The Mantis mercenaries would hijack the starship and fly to Linrec ' s palace , pretending to be Linrec ' s troops returning with a captured Rinn . Once they were in the palace , the mercenaries would take over the building and arrest Linrec on false charges . Rinn would then make a deal with any ambitious subordinate of Linrec to legitimize the Governor ' s removal . Cressis , who disliked her fiancé , decided to run away with a local pirate , Jondrell Inx . Inx feigned interest , but he really wanted to sell her as a slave to the Zygerrian Slavers Guild . As Inx operated on Kallistas , Linrec notified Rinn . The Governor ordered Rinn to find his daughter in three days , or Linrec ' s troops would be sent to Kallistas and take over the search . Rinn was afraid of Linrec discovering the preparations for his coup , so he decided to look for Cressis . To do so , Rinn hired three bounty hunters : Demos Traxen , Sirenas Firil , and Chandrex Grenn . Believing that the hunters might betray him , Rinn asked Zian to watch them . Several bounty hunters foiled Rinn ' s conspiracy , which was discovered by the Empire . The Empire then issued an arrest warrant on Rinn for treason , conspiracy , and illegal possession of weapons . Rinn quickly left Kallistas with little more than the clothes he was wearing at the moment — thereby adding flight to avoid prosecution to the charges against him . The law enforcement agencies believed that Rinn had used his smuggling contacts to hide in the Outer Rim Territories . By 10 ABY , he had not been captured , although at that point an Imperial TracSheet on him , # 66690933 - USAW - 854400 , had been already issued . Personality and traits . Dengless Rinn was noticeable for his long mustache and , to a lesser extent , his beard , severe eyes , and fierce expression . He also appeared to be older than he was . His Imperial TracSheet specified that Rinn was arrogant and had a sense of self - importance . He was not beyond threatening or imprisoning people at whim to make them obey his desires . Rinn was an experienced manager , financier , negotiator , and political leader . He was also a polyglot and had developed other abilities , including computer use , crime prevention , and astrogation . When he was a prefect , Rinn commonly carried a customized blaster pistol that caused greater damage than expected , even though he had no experience with shooting . He also had a datapad and a comlink to communicate with the local security center in his possession . After leaving Kallistas , he lost the datapad and the custom gun . As a fugitive , he carried only the comlink , an off - the - shelf blaster pistol , and some cash . Behind the scenes . Dengless Rinn first appeared in the roleplaying adventure " Two for the Price of One " by Rick D . Stuart , published in " " , a 1994 supplement to West End Games ' s " . " The book included an image of Rinn drawn by Terry Pavlet , which was used again in " " , published later in 1994 . This second book provided a new set of updated role - playing stats for Rinn , representing his advanced experience and new knowledge obtained after leaving Kallistas . " Galaxy Guide 11 : Criminal Organizations " describes Rinn as " Tall and lanky . " In the same box , Rinn ' s height is listed as 1 . 40 meters , which is normally not considered tall for a Human male .
