Reelo Baruk

Reelo Baruk was a very corpulent Rodian gangster from Nar Shaddaa.

Very little was known about him. In 1 ABY he was working for Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine, and after much time there became a hardened criminal.

Baruk eventually made the move back to Nar Shaddaa, and began his own criminal empire. Most people just saw him as the head of a local garbage hauling company, but this was not the case. He worked very hard to keep his criminal activity under the radar. His thugs were of many different alien species, and were considered as some of the worst scum in the galaxy.



Baruk was killed at the hands of Kyle Katarn. After the Jedi Knight escaped his trap, Reelo set a new trap, an ambush while Katarn and Lando Calrissian were about to make their escape from Nar Shaddaa. Reelo attacked the mercenaries with a handful of mercenaries. The criminal leader used a gun platform as his weapon, but Katarn leapt into the laser turret of the Lady Luck and shot down the gangster.

Behind the Scenes
Reelo first appeared as one of the more major villains in Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, where his voice was portrayed by Kevin Michael Richardson. Reelo later appeared again in Star Wars Galaxies, as the entrance point into the Jabba The Hutt quests.
