Glah Ubooki was a Near-Human Bimm merchant who owned a shop in Glastro on Bimmisaari who had specialized in imports from all over the galaxy, selling virtually everything from technology to pets, but was also known to offer his customers debris from the Destruction of Alderaan as well as a glove once worn by Darth Vader. Somewhat of a mysterious character, Glah's features were often familiar to galactic citizens, and some would even argue to have made business with Glah in another shop somewhere else in the galaxy. Glah himself, however, always claimed to own only the shop in Glastro.

BiographyEdit

"Glah Ubooki" was in reality not one person, but a character "played" by eight Bimm brothers. One of the Ubooki brothers, possibly the original Glah Ubooki, once happened upon a crashed Imperial R&D vessel and found several Imperial prototype weapons. He contacted his eight brothers and together they managed to salvage most of the valuable material in the wreckage before Imperial salvage vessels arrived. The following day, they sold the salvaged goods to a Rebel operative, who paid them a large amount of credits.

The Ubooki brothers decided to invest the money in a starship and explore locals systems in search of rare finds and treasures. The brothers acquired much Rebel and Imperial material in and around the Bimmisaari system, which they stole from Imperial and Rebel installations. Taking advantage of battles and bombardments, the Ubooki brothers would simply sneak into the installation in question and make off with data, secrets, eqiupment and other values. The brothers would usually wait a few weeks and then take the goods to markets far away from the places where the installations were situated, and sell them off. They would often end up selling stolen goods back to unknowing representatives of the faction they were originally stolen from.

The Ubooki brothers were never seen together, and each of them would always introduce himself as "Glah Ubooki". This was originally a tactic to confuse bounty hunters and other agents. Their business was so successful that eventually, pirates, mercenaries, and fringers would sell or donate items to Glah Ubooki. As a result of the continuing success, the Ubooki brothers opened several shops on several planets, keeping up the tradition of each brother referring to himself as "Glah Ubooki".
