Lisum

Lisum was a male botanist who lived during the time of the Galactic Civil War.
==Biography==
Sometime following the Battle of Yavin, several colleages of Lisum, including Jillian, Bathoz and Rengar, decided to go to the planet Kashyyyk in order to study the local flora. Lisum was particularly close to Jillian and the man tried to convince the latter not to go because he was afraid something could happen to them. The group of botanists knew that Kashyyyk could be a unsafe place but they decided to go anyway. The researchers thus traveled to the planet. They set up a camp in the wilderness of the planet, north of the city of Kachirho. During their mission, they used a radio to communicate with other scientists based off-world, including Lisum.
In 1 ABY, the dangerous Canopy bandits attacked and destroyed the research camp. The criminals abducted the researchers and brought them captive to their camp for ransom. However, for some reason, they eventually executed all the scientists, including Jillian, Bathoz and Rengar.
Following the murder of the botanists, Lisum tried desperately to contact the research camp but without success. A short time later, a group of spacers discovered the destroyed camp. While investigating the camp site, a spacer was contacted over the radio by Lisum. The spacer accepted to help to uncover the researchers' fate and the adventurers therefore searched the camp for clues. When one of the spacers found the word "Canopy" written on a dented drum, Lisum immediately understood that the scientists had been taken by the Canopy bandits. He thus requested the spacers to find the Canopy bandit's camp where his colleagues where likely held captive. The adventurers explored the area and finally found the bandit's lair. However, it was already too late and they only found the corpses of the dead scientists in the camp. Enraged and distraught, Lisum asked them to make the criminals pay for what they did. The spacers eventually killed fifteen Canopy bandits out of vengeance.
==Behind the scenes==
Lisum appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. Lisum was added to the game with the release of the expansion pack Rage of the Wookiees on May 5, 2005.
In the game, Lisum was never actually seen as a non-player character. Instead, the player would communicate with Lisum through a radio at a destroyed research camp. For this reason, his species is unknown, but his name and gender was identified in the quest journal.
