Biography
Edit
His usual duties included protecting Mos Taike from various entities. He grew so frustrated with the constant attacks by Tusken Raiders, that he petitioned both Tour Aryon and Prefect Talmont to have an Imperial garrison built in the vicinity. They agreed to send a surveyor to evaluate the situation, but he never arrived. Fearing the surveyor to be lost, or worse, Rile pleaded with an unknown spacer to locate the surveyor and escort him to town. The spacer agreed, and eventually found the exhausted, dehydrated surveyor. With the surveyor brought back to town, shaken but alive, Rile wasted no time in showing him around town. After some amount of discussion, the surveyor agreed with Rile to send a report to Talmont which would recommend the establishment of an Imperial garrison.
Unfortunately, another matter plagued Mos Taike. Their main supplier of water lost several caravans, and wanted to recover her losses by making the city pay for it. Rile asked the spacer who helped him earlier to locate a farmer named Merg Thande, who was willing to sell water for the standard price. The spacer, determined to help aid Mos Taike, agreed to find Merg and bring him to town. With Merg escorted safely to town, Mos Taike could once again afford water.
Not long afterwards, Rile learned of some distressing news. Prefect Talmont decided it was not a worth while expenditure of Imperial resources to build a garrison for Mos Taike. Dissapointed, but not giving up on his citizens, Rile decided to turn to Jabba's criminal empire for protection. However, Mos Taike was low on funds, and probably wouldn't be able to afford such services. Nonetheless, Rile sent the spacer to contact one of Jabba's business associates in the hope that they would have the "heart" to actually help them for a low price.
The spacer found the business associate, and brought him to Mos Taike to meet Gramm Rile. Rile sat down with the associate to explain their plight, and negotiate a fair settlement. Unfortunately, the talks quickly came to end, as Rile became angered at just how much they had to pay for Jabba's "help." Their terms of agreement were to send seven citizens a year to be Jabba's slaves. Rile wanted none of that, feeling it better to die free, rather than live a slave.
Desperately running out of options, Rile decided that they had no choice but to fight the Tusken's on their own, starting by bringing everyone back to town safely. Before he could say more, Rile was horrified to see that his wife was dangerously outside of town. The spacer agreed to bring his wife back to town, while Rile saw to it that all other citizens be assembled. As soon as the wife was brought safely back to town, Rile learned from his security chief that a Tusken raid was on its way. With Rile and his citizens completely together, they prepared for an epic battle against the Tusken aggressors.
Rile thanked the spacer who had helped him, but understood that the spacer could not stay around to defend the city. But with both the mayor's and the spacer's devotion, enough citizens were gathered to successfully defeat the Tusken invasion.
