[edit] Biography
Kelvyyn had a wide web of slave-trading all over the Outer Rim Territories, and had his headquarters on the planet Ryloth. There he lived with opulence and enjoyed his multiple Twi'lek slaves, including his most recent acquisition, Shakka.
He had close links with other crimelords such as Jabba Desilijic Tiure and was widely known for his love for gambling and Podraces. It was precisely in this race, that he lost after putting 50,000 credits on Sebulba to win. He also made other bets against Watto (one of his personal friends), hoping to get the Nubian Starship of Queen Padmé Amidala, but in the end, lost both bets.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Graxol Kelvyyn was portrayed by John Coppinger in The Phantom Menace.
For a time it was believed that the Anx alien seen in Tatooine with Watto was actually the senator Horox Ryyder, but later was confirmed that they were two different characters.[source?]
For the Episode One action figure line, Hasbro released a figure pack including Graxol Kelvyyn, along with Watto and Shakka, with the name Watto's box. In it, Graxol is the only one with a Commtech chip.
