Magaloof was a male Leffingite from the planet Almak who journeyed to Coruscant to pursue a career in the line of theft. Stealing an airspeeder to get his break, he soon joined the gang of crime lord Hat Lo. While in Lo's company, however, he sought to fall in with more significant syndicates, such as Black Sun, or the Baath brothers. In time, he entered into what he thought was a partnership with the con man Achk Med-Beq. Together, they participated in several successful heists. However, Med-Beq and his partner Dannl Faytonni set up Magaloof while the Leffingite robbed a Coco Town jewelery store of its flame gems.

Magaloof was conned out of his takings on the job, and became disillusioned as a result. He went to jail for the offense, and thought upon his folly. After completing his three-year sentence, he returned to Almak to rethink his life. Magaloof had been eager to rise in the ranks of the underworld, and certainly hoped to make his mark amongst the criminals of the galaxy. He was ignorant of Med-Beq's con, and thought of him as a mentor, but, in retrospect, was disgusted by what had transpired, and had no qualms about dropping his intended lifestyle in favor of a more honest living.
