Biography . Kina Margath was a Human female who resided on the planet Elshandruu Pica , the sector capital of the Quence sector , in the Outer Rim Territories . She was the owner of Margath ' s on Elshandruu Pica , an expansive entertainment complex in Picavil , the planet ' s capital city . The sprawling facility included bar s , nightclub s , five - star hotels , and casinos , with the centerpiece being the 27th Hour Social Club . Margath inherited control of Margath ' s from her parents some time between 14 BBY and 10 BBY and turned the complex into a thriving success with a galaxy - wide reputation for quality service and excellence , employing over 1 , 500 full - time and around 4 , 500 part - time workers . Customer numbers in the complex ranged from 10 , 000 on a quiet day to around 100 , 000 at its peak . Margath kept track of the customer turnover , and was reputedly the only one able to keep an accurate tally . Margath spent much of her free time at the 27th Hour Social Club ; the club ' s reputation and its location at the front of the Margath ' s complex meant that it was usually the first place that visiting customers encountered . Margath found the diverse mix of species and cultures entertaining , and enjoyed watching people having a good time . The 27th Hour Social Club pledged that if they did not stock or know how to create a patron ' s drink order , then the customer ' s tab was on the house . An informal contest arose from the declaration , as new and old customers tried their luck in getting a free bar tab for the night by trying to find new or obscure drinks from throughout the galaxy . The offer cost Margath thousands of credits over the years , but did result in a drinks library of over fourteen million concoctions . Opposed to the stance that the Galactic Empire took on trade restrictions and prohibition , Margath was also an operative for the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War , working as a Foster Agent . Foster Agents were individuals whose mission was to collect orphaned Alliance operatives — agents who had conducted missions , but missed their scheduled extraction — and see them safely returned to the Alliance . Margath enjoyed allowing Alliance operatives to use her businesses as safehouses as long as they attracted no Imperial attention . The position was a dangerous one , as Alliance operatives who had been given Margath ' s name as a point of contact could have potentially revealed her name if captured by Imperial forces . In 1 ABY , on 35 : 9 : 15 , Margath ' s was raided by the intergalactic jewel thief known only as the " Tombat . " The master thief penetrated the security vaults of the complex and stole gems and settings belonging to the resort ' s guests . The total cost of the stolen goods was six million credits , with over two million of those credits being accounted for in a necklace of Corusca stones in a mythra setting belonging to Lady Landric , wife of Moff Landric of the Emmo sector . In their place , the Tombat left a single quella stone , which was the thief ' s trademark . Margath was upset at the heist , which endangered the reputation that Margath ' s had established for being a high - security business resort . In response to the theft , Lady Landric announced that a full investigation of the complex would be launched . Two days later , the staff at Margath ' s discovered that all of the stolen jewelery had been returned to the security vaults , along with another quella stone . Inspector Toorka , who was leading the investigation of the initial theft , stated that he believed that the Tombat had simply changed their mind about the theft , and dismissed the notion of another exceptionally skilled thief returning them after outwitting the Tombat to obtain the jewels in the first place . In 2 ABY , Imperial Captain Sair Yonka of the " Imperial II " - class Star Destroyer " Avarice " embarked upon an affair with Aellyn Jandi , the wife of the local Imperial Moff , Riit Jandi . Margath found out about the affair and befriended Aellyn , agreeing to keep the affair secret from the Moff . Yonka and Aellyn used Margath ' s for their liaisons , and Margath allowed rumors to spread that Yonka was romancing her . In return , Aellyn secured favorable treatment for Margath ' s business operations from Moff Jandi , and Yonka supplied her with exotic drinks from the worlds he visited , which helped the 27th Hour Social Club to keep its promise that it could supply any known drink to a patron . Around the same time , Margath acquired a small supply of good - quality Skannbult Likker , a drink whose quality varied greatly . Considered to be the most potent fire - water in the galaxy and unique to the planet Skann in the Astal sector , Skannbult Likker was created locally by the world ' s farmers . Low - quality , quickly brewed rotgut was readily available , but the high quality product was rarely seen off - world . Margath refused to reveal her supplier , selling double measures for between fifteen and twenty - five credits , although the fast turnover and limited quantity of the liquor made her consider raising the price to twenty credits per single measure . In 7 ABY , Commander Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron resigned their commissions from the Defense Force of the New Republic — the successor state to the Alliance to Restore the Republic — in the wake of the liberation of Coruscant , the galactic capital . The former Director of Imperial Intelligence , Ysanne Isard , had seized control of the planet Thyferra and the Bacta Cartel s by allying herself with the Xucphra Corporation , but the New Republic was hesitant to embroil themselves in what was technically a Thyferran internal affair , so Antilles and his compatriots fought a private campaign against her . Looking to learn more about the forces under Isard ' s command , Antilles put out requests for information on her starships and commanders , including Captain Sair Yonka . Margath responded with a full report of Yonka ' s affair . Using that information , Antilles and the Rogues ambushed Yonka while he was visiting his mistress , and offered him a deal to defect to their cause , which he took . Sometime in 7 ABY , Margath bought three GAT - 12 Skipray Blastboat s , which were housed at the starport on Elshandruu Pica . In a brazen move , the Saurton pirate Miktiss stole the three ships as a low - level criminal in his employ created a distraction . Miktiss and his pirates absconded with the ships before the planetary patrol vessels could react . Margath vowed to find out who had stolen the Blastboats . By 11 ABY , Margath ' s was being regularly supplied with drink concoctions and recipes by the smuggler Booster Terrik . Terrik ' s son - in - law , Corran Horn , believed Terrik had an attraction to Margath , and found her charming , but Horn ' s wife , Mirax , believed that Margath was too young for her father . Personality and traits . Kina Margath was a professional businesswoman , and projected a confident businesslike persona at all times . Although soft spoken , she was possessed of a quiet authority , and other beings followed her lead . Always immaculately dressed , Margath was effortlessly elegant and appreciated the fine and exotic things in life . Her opposition to the Empire ' s stance on free trade restrictions led her to lend her time and facilities to the Rebel Alliance as a Foster Agent . However , her involvement in the Alliance did not stop her from striking agreements with those who could supply her with exotic goods , such as Imperial Captain Sair Yonka , and she turned the situation to her advantage by supplying information on his illicit affair with the local Moff ' s wife to the New Republic . Her position running the Margath ' s complex led her to have an extensive knowledge of alien species , cultures , and languages , and a working knowledge of bureaucratic procedure . She had an interest in gambling , and was able to program and repair computers and operate security systems . Margath carried a hold - out blaster that she was trained in the use of , and generally carried a selection of fake IDs , as well as a forgery kit . She kept between 5 , 000 and 12 , 000 credits about her person at all times , and was assisted in running her empire by three Cybot Galactica 3PO - series protocol droid s and two Cybot Galactica XC2 administration droid s .
