Wargo Wargo was a Drovian member of the notorious Tarisian swoop gang known as the Black Vulkars who later joined the rampaging Mandalorian Neo - Crusader army in the early stages of the Mandalorian Wars . Rarely seen without his close Zabrak friend Frazznik , the powerful and brutish Wargo worked for the Vulkar lieutenant Benno . In 3964 BBY , Wargo and Frazznik encountered the wanted fugitives Zayne Carrick and Marn Hierogryph , but instead of turning them in for a hefty bounty , they were convinced by Hierogryph to shake down a group of nearby Wookiees — and sustained a beating that cost Wargo several teeth . When the Mandalorians besieged Taris not long afterward , Wargo and Frazznik abandoned the Black Vulkars and joined the invading force , eventually being sent to a staging point on the planet Jebble in preparation for a raid on the Core World Alderaan . Wargo was caught on Jebble when the influence of the ancient Sith artifact known as the Muur Talisman turned thousands into mutated rakghoul beasts — although he fought against the monsters , Wargo eventually perished on Jebble . Biography . A Drovian male , Wargo lived in the Lower City of the Outer Rim planet Taris as of 3964 BBY , where he was an active member of the notorious swoop gang known as the Black Vulkars under the the Vulkar lieutenant Benno . That year , four Padawans at the Taris Jedi Tower were massacred . Surviving Padawan Zayne Carrick and local criminal Marn Hierogryph were blamed for the crime , and had extremely large bounties placed upon their heads . Wargo and his Zabrak friend Frazznik , also a Black Vulkar , were among the first two people to encounter Carrick and Hieorgryph as they attempted to flee pursuit from law enforcement and the Jedi Order — recognizing the two from news holos , Wargo and Frazznik attempted to accost them and steal the bounty . However , Hierogryph , who was securely in Wargo ' s grip , correctly surmised that Wargo and Frazznik were two of Benno ' s boys , and managed to convince them to let them go out of fear that they would feel Benno ' s wrath if they tried to collect on the bounty and got him involved in Upper City justice . In exchange , Hierogryph gave them a tip : that a group of Wookiees operating a nearby trash cart had secretly sewn stashes of spice into their pack animal ' s harness . The tip was actually a lie made up by Hierogryph on the spot , but it convinced Wargo and Frazznik to attempt to steal the Wookiees ' cart and take the spice for themselves , a score they hoped would make their kick for the entire year . The would - be robbery went poorly , and one of the Wookiees knocked out four of Wargo ' s teeth . Soon afterward , the Mandalorian Neo - Crusaders — in one of the major early strikes of their war for galactic supremacy with the Republic — attacked and besieged Taris . While many of the swoop gangs attempted to battle the invaders , Wargo and Frazznik decided instead to join the rampaging horde , as Wargo was attracted by the potential to wreak havoc upon the galaxy . Wargo , Frazznik and a number of other Outer Rim criminals and malcontents who had elected to sign up with the Mandalorians were sent to a staging point on the ice planet Jebble , where they were meant to prepare for an eventual Mandalorian raid on Alderaan . Wargo and Frazznik soon found themselves joined by a pair of familiar faces : Carrick and Hierogryph , who had found themselves on Jebble after stowing away on the Mandalorian shuttle " Mar ' eyce " , which had been on Taris for a successful expedition to find the ancient Sith artifact known as the Muur Talisman . Still vengeful for his thrashing at the hands of the Wookiees months earlier , Wargo attempted to assault Hierogryph , but was instead smashed in the face with the butt of a blaster rifle by a Mandalorian Rally Master who was attempting to keep order among the unruly hordes of new recruits . The blow cost Wargo several more teeth — soon afterward , the same Rally Master gave a speech to the assembled recruits that they would be attacking Alderaan , to Wargo ' s disbelief . However , the planned attack on Alderaan never came to pass , as the Muur Talisman ' s dark influence transmitted the rakghoul plague to many Mandalorians on Jebble , turning them into rampaging rakghoul beasts . Already familiar with the rakghouls because of their notorious presence in the Undercity of Taris , Wargo rallied a number of survivors to battle the rakghouls , including killing his Rally Master after he was bitten . Despite Wargo ' s resistance , the rakghouls swept through the Mandalorian ranks and transmitted the plague to everyone they touched , before all remaining life on the planet was exterminated by a salvo of nuclear bomb s dropped by chief Mandalorian strategist Cassus Fett . Personality and traits . Almost always found at the side of his friend and companion Frazznik , Wargo loved nothing more than plunder and chaos , and was the muscle of the pair . Although Wargo lived on Taris and was an active member of the Black Vulkar gang , Wargo chose to join the invading Mandalorian army instead of fight against them like many swoop gangs did during their siege of Taris . However , Wargo was more interested in being part of a rampaging horde than actually following the rules and customs of the Mandalorian people , and was dismayed after learning that he would have to wear a uniform and respect ranks as a Mandalorian warrior . Wargo held a violent grudge against Marn Hierogryph after his trickery cost him a beating from several Wookiees , and had to be stopped by his Mandalorian Rally Master from attacking the Snivvian after encountering him on Jebble . A Drovian , Wargo had tan skin , yellow eyes and a tuft of brown hair . Behind the scenes .
