Enkidu was a MandalMotors Pursuer-class enforcement ship employed by K'armyn Viraxo in a mercenary role to intimidate business rivals and defend Viraxo interests against pirates. She was a thorn in her enemies sides as she always managed to escape from its various missions without damage.
While conducting a hit-and-fade attack against the Harlequin Station trading post, the Enkidu and its sister ship the Gilgam were driven off by an unexpectedly aggressive Ace Azzameen piloting his family's YT-1300 Corellian light freighter the Sabra.
A further tense encounter with Ace Azzameen and his brother Emon at Dunari's Casino further intensified the enmity between the pilot of the Enkidu and the Azzameen family.
Enkidu was also seen while planting spice in a Twin Suns Transport Services cargo area.
The feud was ended when the Enkidu was destroyed by the Azzameens during a reprisal raid against a Viraxo facility.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Enkidu was the name of the wild man who fought and then befriended the king Gilgamesh in the ancient Sumerian legend, "Epic of Gilgamesh".
