What’s an honorable Kyuzo like Constable **Zuvio** doing on a lawless planet like Jakku? The tough, taciturn Zuvio is the leader of Niima Outpost’s small militia, and keeps a wary yellow eye out for cheats, thieves and others bent on trouble. He is often found guarding Niima’s landing field, glowering at any local who strays too close to a visitor’s star ship.

## Biography

### Law of Jakku

**Zuvio** was a Kyuzo lawman who lived approximately thirty years after the Battle of Endor and served as the Constable of Niima Outpost, a frontier trading post on the otherwise lawless planet Jakku. Zuvio headed both the Niima Outpost Militia and the Office of the Constable and distributed justice when necessary alongside his deputies Drego and Streehn. At some point, Zuvio investigated the robbery of a star-ship owned by the Kubaz Rikard Lovas, which appeared to have been conducted by the constable office secretary droid CZ-1G5. Battling a posse of other droids along the way, Zuvio tracked CZ-1G5 across the Jakku desert and confronted the droid, which ended in a shootout between the two—CZ-1G5 crumpled to the ground after being beaten by Zuvio's draw. However, the droid had actually been reprogrammed as a fall guy for the real culprit: Lovas. The Kubaz's scheme was foiled and Zuvio sentenced Lovas to life in prison for his crimes against the citizenry of Niima Outpost while CZ-1G5 was reinstated at the Office of the Constable. Sometime afterwards, Zuvio and a deputy were conducting business in the Niima marketplace when First Order TIE star-fighters attacked the outpost while tracking a fugitive droid.

## Personality and Traits

A Kyuzo of few words, Constable Zuvio had an unwavering sense of justice immune to bribery. Honorable and tough, he worked his post to the best of his ability and built a reputation for himself in the Niima community. Despite this, Zuvio's office was still known to answer to the Niima junk boss Unkar Plutt, an individual who controlled Niima through threats and strong arms. Zuvio also afforded a loyal demeanor to those close to him, as seen during his desperate attempts to turn CZ-1G5's against his modified programming. Zuvio regretted shooting the droid immediately thereafter, but he brought the droid back to Niima anyways to have him repaired, reprogrammed, and reinstated as a fixture in the Niima community, which allowed their friendship to continue. Constable Zuvio's trek after CZ-1G5 also proved Zuvio to be both resourceful and tenacious, having been able to play the attacking droids to their errors—when B33 accidentally latched its cable onto the DD-13 droid, Zuvio kicked the astromech droid out of a window, which snagged and pulled away the DD-13 as well—while ignoring the variety of injuries he sustained so that he could confront his friend and solve the case of the robbery. Zuvio was also able to piece together elements of the crime using what evidence he had, and successfully used reverse psychology to have CZ-1G5 reveal Lovas' hand in the robbery.

Zuvio was known to carry an expression of eternal disgruntlement due to his always furrowed brow and squintedeyes. However, this was merely a result of the Kyuzo having poor short-range vision that could be marginally improved by squinting. However, his farsightedness was excellent to the point that he did not require optics on weapons to improve his accuracy. His eyes also tended to be useful in watching out for signs of troubles, and locals who strayed to close to visiting starships could find themselves under Zuvio's concentrated glare.

## Equipment

### Armor

* **Dessert Cloth:** Constable Zuvio wore snug fabric clothing that covered most of his body and face as to protect his skin from the harsh Jakku environment.
* **Armor:** He wore green and red colored body-armor over it, which included shoulder plates, a breastplate, and gauntlets
* **Helmet:** He also adorned his head with a Kyuzo war helmet, which shared the same colors as his body armor, just as at least two other members of the Niima militia wore similar body armor with matching war helmets.
* **Backpack:** He also carried a large backpack that had an antennae-like device sticking from the top of it.

### Weapons

* **Blaster Pistol/Staff:** Zuvio's choice of weaponry included a small concealable blaster pistol and a large staff with a blade on it.
* **Czerka Rifle:** He also kept a Czerka built rifle with an after market targeting computer. The computer was faulty, however, but Zuvio never thought to replace it as he was proficient with the weapon without the computer.
