Legend

this Bothan youth attended the Leadership School on Andara, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He was a scholarship student, and found himself ostracized by the wealthier students. He was chosen to join Gillam Tarturi's small band of mercenaries, and quickly distinguished himself as a leader. Rolai also became the group's security expert and financial officer, and often met with prospective clients to discuss terms. It was later discovered by Anakin Skywalker that Rolai had been working with Rana Halion, of the planet Ieria, to set up a mission in which Berm Tarturi of Andara would be forced to acknowledge the other planets under his representation. The group of students was originally going to simply strafe an Andaran landing platform, but Gillam planned to use the action as a way to "die." He planned to have Anakin be killed in a firefight, ensuring that his body was damaged enough to pass for that of Gillam. The goal of this plan was for Gillam to fake his own death and blame it on his father. Anakin and his Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, were able to thwart Gillam's plans. Rolai, Gillam, and the entire team were expelled from the Leadership School and transported to Coruscant for questioning.
