Rav Rav was a male Feeorin pirate who was the owner of a bounty clearing house and cantina , the Golden Gorg , and was also a collaborator with the One Sith and Darth Krayt ' s Galactic Empire . His pirate symbol , the Bloody Bones , was feared across the galaxy . Biography . During a raid on Roon for fun , Rav and Zareb Syn were attacked by Rasi Tuum , a Jedi who was trying to defend a mining camp . Rav lost his leg to Tuum ' s lightsaber during the encounter . Zareb tried to kill the Jedi only to be killed himself in front of his son , Jariah . Rav twisted the events to the young boy , telling him that he and his father were simply trading when the Jedi attacked without provocation . He also claimed that the young Arkanian girl next to them was going to be stolen away to the Order , when in reality , she was just a prisoner . Rav later got a mechanical leg to replace the one he lost . Rav owed some form of debt to Zareb , and as a result took Jariah into his crew . Later , on the request of Jariah , he took Cade Skywalker aboard the Crimson Axe as his apprentice . He and his crew raided the Jedi Praxeum on Ossus , finding the corpses leftover from the attack . He laughed at the bodies , joking that Jedi just die . He had a cross - shaped scar running over one eye , and his right leg was mechanical from the knee down , with weapons supposedly hidden within it . For seven years , Rav trained Cade in the " free " way and had him swear the Bloody Bones oath . He later retired from pirating and opened a bounty clearing house on Socorro . Here , Rav provided the bounty hunters numerous services , including ship repairs . He was also a spice runner , and used this to keep addicted bounty hunters ( such as Skywalker ) in his debt . Rav frequently spoke Huttese . When Cade and his crew came to Socorro to cash in the bounties on bond - skipper Naxy Screeger and the Jedi Hosk Trey ' lis , he gave Skywalker three death sticks on credit , enraging Jariah Syn , who wished to be out of Rav ' s debt . One of his henchmen escorted Naxy away and the other , a Wookiee , carried Trey ' lis off . He lectured Syn that one ' s loyalty is to self and that he would always be owned . Rav later double - crossed Syn and Blue by turning them into the Imperial Director of Intelligence , Nyna Calixte , for harboring Cade , whom he had just found out was a Jedi , . He was later tracked down by Cade , Syn , Chak and Kee because he had Chak ' s ship , the " Grinning Liar " . After a brief fight , which Cade and his friends won , Rav reluctantly returned the ship the Chak and Kee and swore his own oath to Skywalker . He later reported to Sith Lady Darth Maladi , the head of Sith Intelligence and Assassination , swearing his oath to her and promising to deliver any information concerning his former protegé . Under Lady Maladi ' s orders , Rav hired the crew of the " Mynock " for a job on the planet Wayland , a job he referred as a simple " blue milk run " . However , it was a trap set up by Lady Maladi and Rav to capture Skywalker . Behind the scenes . John Ostrander considered calling him the " Dread Pirate Rav " as a nod to from " " , but decided against it , as Rav was " NOTHING like ANY " of the characters from that movie .
