Legend

this Ryn befriended Han Solo on the Jubilee Wheel, albeit to Han's dismay. Han had been working with Roa to seek out Reck Desh, and Droma and his companions were searching for passage to Rhinnal to look for another group of Ryn, including Droma's sister. Instead, they were all caught up in the Yuuzhan Vong attack on the station, and Roa was lost. Droma helped Han escape the station, and they parted ways, only to be reunited aboard the Queen of Empire. Ever in the path of danger, Droma and Han were suddenly in the midst of a Peace Brigade ambush of the ship, in an effort to recover the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan. After Major Showolter was injured, Han and Droma agreed to transport Elan and Vergere to Coruscant. Droma proved to be something of a nuisance, but Han found himself liking the unusual humanoid. In many ways, Han felt that he was just allowing Droma to fill the void left by Chewbacca's death, but Droma nonetheless proved to be an ally. Droma was also responsible for saving Han's life - not once, but twice - during their flight from Ord Mantell and their transport of the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan. It was Droma who recognized that Vergere was a species from the known galaxy, not a creature the Yuuzhan Vong brought with them. His telling of Han's future with a deck of sabacc cards also helped Droma realize that Elan was not a defector, but instead part of a plot to kill the Jedi Knights. After Han decided to go back out to search for Roa, he agreed to help Droma continue the search for his sister. After missing the group of Ryn on Ruan, Droma was arrested by Salliche Agricultural Corporation for forging transport documents for refugees who had been working on the planet. In reality, the documents had been forged by Droma's relative, Gaph. Han was forced to rescue him, with the help of the droid Baffle, and then later freed several thousand droids who had been inhibited by Salliche Ag. After being reunited with his family, Droma and the Ryn fled into space to hide. He ended up on Onadax, where he again ran into the Solos. This time, the decided to level things with Han, admitting that he himself was the actually the leader of the Ryn network. His involvement with Han had given him a kind of notoriety among his people, and Droma eventually accepted his position of leadership. After the Battle of Esfandia, he again took his leave of the Solos, departing on the Fortune Seeker before Han could question him.
