Gadin Badolfa

"Send them messages through Gadin Badolfa, the architect. He sees them all, and I still trust him."

- Candra Kitai, to her daughter Orielle

Gadin Badolfa was a male architect from Kesh. While not a Sith, he nevertheless had powerful connections within the Lost Tribe of Sith hierarchy, earning the trust of several High Lords, including Candra Kitai. In 3,960 BBY, following the assassination attempt on the life of Grand Lord Lillia Venn, Badolfa was contacted by Kitai's daugher, Orielle, who, along with her mother, had been degraded to slavery following the attempt. Orielle had recently discovered the location of an Aurek-class tactical strikefighter, and hoped to use the ship as political leverage help her mother escape the clutches of the Grand Lord. Badolfa met with Orielle, who asked him to send messages to four High Lords, two a piece from the Red and Gold factions of the Tribe. The message was an invitation to the farm of Jelph Marrian, where the starfighter was hidden. Badolfa assured Orielle that the High Lords could help her cause, and also told her that Grand Lord Venn had elevated the Sith Sabers Flen and Sawj Luzo to the position of Lord. Following the meeting, Badolfa delivered the messages, but Orielle was betrayed by her own mother, who told the Grand Lord of the starfighter.
