Samhan Dobo Samhan Dobo was a male Duros merchant who was living on Citadel Station over Telos IV as of 3951 BBY . He co - owned the Dobo Brothers ' Emporium along with his brother , Dendis ; although the two established their shops in the same module , each brother held great resentment for the way the other conducted business . Much to the indignation of his brother , Samhan used the shop to run an illicit smuggling operation , selling illegally - modded items such as blasters to such organizations as the Exchange . While Dendis sold only medical supplies and pazaak cards , Samhan offered up a number of weapons , including vibroblades , blasters , and grenades , as well as various kinds of armor and upgrades . Biography . By the time of the destruction of Peragus II in 3951 BBY , Dobo was operating part of the Dobo Brothers ' Emporium , along with his brother , Dendis . He was also heavily involved in an illegal smuggling ring aboard Citadel Station , in orbit over the planet of Telos IV . Among other things , the operation funneled illegal weapons and weapon components to the Bumani Exchange Corporation , which was the local front for the Exchange , a galaxy - spanning criminal syndicate . Also , Jana Lorso , the head of the local Czerka branch , had Dobo deliver unspecified goods for her . Lieutenant Dol Grenn of the Telos Security Force had long been suspicious of the black market dealings that were occurring on the Station ; however , he had no concrete evidence to support it and , thus , to bring Dobo to justice . When a former Jedi Knight , Meetra Surik , was retrieving a droid for an Ithorian herd on Citadel Station , a group of thugs attacked her . After the fight , the droid found a modified holdout blaster on one of the thugs , which she then presented to Grenn . The Lieutenant realized this was the evidence he needed to dismantle the black market . Grenn then asked Surik to help him find the person or persons responsible for the operation . After showing the blaster to Dobo , Surik persuaded him to reveal that he was in fact the head of the local smuggling ring . Surik agreed to aid Grenn ' s cause by providing Dobo with the materials he needed for his next illegal shipment . This allowed the TSF officer to catch Dobo in the act . After a brief battle in which Dobo lobbed a grenade at the group of arresting TSF officers , he surrendered , was arrested , and was placed in a force cage within the TSF headquarters . He swore that one day he would break free and exact his revenge on Surik . Personality and traits . As a businessman , as well as a smuggler , Dobo often displayed a high degree of pragmatism . While his brother , Dendis , was an idealist who insisted on doing business in a strictly legitimate fashion , Samhan bore no scruples at all , dealing with anyone who could bring more credits his way . As a result , the two brothers had an antagonistic relationship and would even argue with each other in front of a customer . He was also known to be irritable , argumentative and vindictive ; when he was arrested by the TSF , he swore vengeance upon those who had set him up , including the Exile . Behind the scenes . Samhan Dobo was a character created for Obsidian Entertainment ' s " " video game . Meetra Surik , the player ' s character , could have chosen the above course of action or to actually help Dobo with his shipments . If the latter course is chosen , he will reward Surik with credits and access to his " special reserves . " Then she could also accompany him to one of the docking bays on Citadel Station , where she would be confronted by a TSF officer . After failing to convince the officer that she was trying to expose Dobo , Surik would be forced to kill the officer . This course of action leads to a dark side shift , however . It is therefore assumed non - canon when compared with the light side option represented in the sections above . During the Battle of Telos IV , if the player explores the TSF station , Dobo ' s force cage is found to be empty ; he may have been killed or moved to another cell , or escaped during the commotion .
