Legend

a former chef who worked for Olag Greck, Huba was in charge of preparing a feast for one of Greck's Hutt criminal partners. Greck tried to poison the food, but didn't put enough in it. When the Hutt tried to execute Greck, he blamed the slightly-poisoned food on Huba and his team of chefs. They were enslaved by the Hutt and put to work in crystal mines until they managed to escape some months later. Huba and his chefs became pirates, in an attempt to raise enough money to repay Greck's treachery. Captain Huba was encountered by C-3PO and R2-D2 during their adventures on Kalarba, just prior to the Galactic Civil War. He was a grey-skinned humanoid with a thick neck and pointed ears. He attacked the Tharen Wayfarer to steal what he could, since Olag Greck's shipment's had stopped flying through Kalarba's ports. He was fond of a good Stenness Pie. When C-3PO and R2-D2 beat Ripter in a vump-shugga race, Huba refused to accept the Captain's medal, and so Muptupp voted the Captaincy to R2-D2. When the droids left, Huba recovered his rank.
