Unidentified Twi'lek 1 (Ambush in Cloud City)

A male Twi'lek scoundrel participated in an ambush set up for Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian in the Bespin settlement of Cloud City in 1 ABY. The Twi'lek and some other fringer accompanied the bounty hunter Bossk, who was hired by Dominic Raynor, former owner of the city. Calrissian was lured to a maintenance level of the city by a fake emergency call. The Twi'lek and his companion attacked the Baron Administrator and his guards, but Calrissian fled the ambush through a hangar.

Biography
A male Twi'lek lived and worked as a scoundrel in 1 ABY, during the Galactic Civil War. In that year, Baron Administrator Dominic Raynor gambled away Cloud City of planet Bespin in a game against the extraordinary sabacc player Lando Calrissian and hired the bounty hunter Bossk to capture or kill the gambler, who became new Baron Administrator. Knowing that his target would be well protected, Bossk contacted some mercenaries and cutthroats, including two Twi'lek scoundrels, this individual and a colleague of the same species.

The Twi'lek and his companions slipped through the security of Cloud City and planned an ambush to capture Calrissian. Bossk impersonated the city's chief engineer and reported to Calrissian that a primary repulsorlift pod was about to break down&mdash;a failure that would destroy the floating city. In response, Calrissian went to the city's lower levels to check the pod, taking his Twi'lek bodyguard and four Bespin guards along as a precautionary measure.

Bossk ordered his companion to take cover but remain in sight to lure Calrissian out. Since, they wasn't sure which turbolift Calrissian would arrive in, the Twi'lek and the others spread into every room near the lifts. After Calrissian's group entered the maintenance level, a blast door suddenly shut behind them, and the ad hoc bounty hunter group opened fire on the guards of the Baron Administrator. Calrissian's escorts decided to hold them off while the Baron Administrator escaped through a nearby hangar, and the Twi'lek engaged his opponents with a long dagger in the combat that erupted. Thanks to the distress call sent by a member of Calrissian's party, a quartet of Wing Guards arrived to assist the Baron Administrator, who fled the ambush through the hangar.

Behind the scenes
The Twi'lek appeared in Sore Loser's Revenge, a Wizards.com online scenario written by Eric Cagle for the Star Wars Miniatures collectible tabletop strategy game in 2004. He was represented by a generic Twi'lek scoundrel miniature figurine from the Miniatures set Rebel Storm. The survival of the character depends on the players' actions.
