Legend

a native of Ovise III, this New Republic entrepreneur maintained Salfur's Trading Post on the forest moon of Endor. Salfur himself was drafted as part of the strike team assembled by the Alliance during the mission to destroy the second Death Star, but he found himself in the brig more often than not. After he got into a fight with a Dresselian aboard the Home One, he was discharged from military service. He traveled for a few short months, Salfur was again hired by the New Republic, this time as the watchman over the Forest Moon of Endor. The initial funding for Salfur's Trading Post came from the New Republic Intelligence agency, which needed a landing place after the Imperial garrison was removed, and which unobtrusively used it as a source of information on the Moddell Sector. Although business was initially good during the years immediately following the Battle of Endor, Salfur saw profits tail off as travel into Moddell Sector became more and more hazardous. Many members of the Intelligence community suspected that Salfur was part of the rokna blue processing operations, but no evidence was ever found to link him to the production of the chemical.
