Biography
Hoggon brought the ex-Dark Lord Ulic Qel-Droma to exile, first traveling to Yavin 4, but Ulic did not want to go into exile there because he could see the spirits of warriors and visions of fighters in the air.

Next they went to Rhen Var. Ulic accepted it as his new home and Hoggon went to the Jedi conclave on Exis Station. Hoggon didn't know of Ulic's identity at the time. After dropping off Ulic, Hoggon went to Exis Station with hopes of watching the Jedi.

One of Hoggon's friends indicated a good spying position - a ventilation shaft high above the chamber. From his high viewpoint, the small starpilot saw Sylvar declaring Ulic a terrible war criminal.



After leaving Exis, Hoggon discovered a stowaway on his ship - young Vima Sunrider, who was searching for Ulic to be trained as a Jedi. Hoggon answered everyone would like to find him, but Vima showed the spacer a hologram of the former Sith.

Hoggon immediately recognized the hologram as the sad man he brought to exile on Rhen Var. He brought the girl to Ulic's frozen home, packing her with supplies, giving her a transmitter, and wishing for the Force to be with her.

He then decided to tell Nomi Sunrider Ulic's location, hoping them to "send a whole battalion of Jedi Knights to fight Ulic." Unfortunately Nomi had learned what her daughter had done, and was in no mood for visitors. She quickly ordered Hoggon away.

Hoggon reasoned to talk to another Jedi, one who felt the urge to confront Ulic. He got the attention of Sylvar. The Cathar was in no better mood, and threatened to hurt the pilot, but Hoggon managed to get her to come.

Upon arriving once again on Rhen Var, Hoggon offered to help Sylvar fight Ulic, but he was declined. After a short duel, Ulic cleared Sylvar of her hate. The Jedi would spare him, but just as Slyvar declared her frustrated surprise at Ulic being the one to free her of her anger, a blue blaster bolt ripped through the former Sith's chest.

Hoggon proudly spoke of his hopes to be known in history as the one who killed the evil Ulic Qel-Droma, but was cut off by Sylvar, who lifted him by the collar and declared "If not for the man you just killed, I'd be tearing your throat out right now."

Hoggon was roughly dropped to the ground. He escaped Rhen Var, deciding that he would never understand the Jedi.
