Legend

Jord Dusat's best friend and rival on Ingo, Thall was an avid speeder racer during the early years of the Empire. He was easily distinguished by his mohawk haricut. Thall became the owner of R2-D2 and C-3PO when he and Jord found them in a junkyard, and they helped him evade the ministrations of Sise Fromm. The droids were glad to be free, and helped the boys with the construction of their racing speeder, the White Witch. When Jord was captured by Tig Fromm, Thall and the droids enlisted the help of Kea Moll to rescue him. The group then traveled to Boonta, hoping to enter the Boonta Speeder Race. After helping Kea's mother destroy the Trigon One weapons satellite, they finally made it to Boonta. There, Jord was injured and Thall was forced into duty as the White Witch's pilot. During the race, he was beset by agents of the Fromm gang as well as by Boba Fett, but Thall managed to avert disaster and win the race. Jord and Thall, along with Kea Moll, were approached by Zebulon Dak to join the design team of his corporation, but were told that they could not bring the droids. The trio had decided to turn down Dak's offer, having come to appreciate the droids, but R2-D2 and C-3PO would not allow them to miss the opportunity. The droids jettisoned themselves in an escape pod, leaving the humans free to take the job.
