Lando Calrissian/Legends

"He's a card player, gambler, scoundrel. You'd like him."

- Han Solo to Leia Organa

Lando Calrissian was a professional gambler, entrepreneur, smuggler and long-time associate of Han Solo. Calrissian, born on Socorro, went on to become the Baron Administrator of Cloud City for a time before it was taken over by the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War. Subsequently, he joined the Rebel Alliance and successfully led the dangerous mission to enter the second Death Star's core and destroy its reactor.

Afterwards, Lando continued to serve the New Republic in times of need, but spent most of his time pursuing various business ventures, specializing in mining. In 18 ABY, Lando met Tendra Risant, marrying her soon after the Bastion Accords were signed. During the Yuuzhan Vong War, Lando continued to aid the New Republic through his leadership and the deadly YVH 1 droids that his company, Tendrando Arms, produced.

Early years
Calrissian's early years were obscured by history and Calrissian's own fabrications. He was originally a Socorran, leaving him with a hint of a Corellian accent thanks to the Corellian origin of that planet's settlers. His own memories pointed to his having a stable family life until at least the age of seventeen, and he had a vivid enough memory of his mother to recall her ability to memorize hundreds of songs and poems. A reference to having servants indicates he may have come from a wealthy background, which he gave up in order to live an adventurous life. The earliest reliable accounts of his life date to 4 BBY, when Calrissian was around the age of twenty-seven. Already a professional gambler, Calrissian won a battered YT-1300 freighter called the Millennium Falcon in a high stakes game of sabacc. As he had no piloting experience, Lando sought out a tutor by the name of Han Solo.

The Mindharp of Sharu
Solo, after Lando saved him from Boba Fett, eagerly taught him the basics of starship piloting, and Calrissian used this knowledge to fly the Falcon to the Centrality. While on Oseon 2795, he won an exuberant droid called Vuffi Raa from Ottdefa Osuno Whett, but had to travel to Rafa IV to acquire it. Before he could depart, Calrissian was arrested for charges trumped up by Governor Duttes Mer, who forced him to aid Rokur Gepta, a Sorcerer of Tund, to locate the Mindharp of Sharu.

Provided with a transdimensional key, Calrissian chose to begin his search on Rafa V, location of the largest Sharu pyramid in the Rafa system. He was ambushed by several Toka, who tied him to one of the crystalline lifetrees, hoping he would freeze during the night. Resourceful as always, despite the fact that the lifetree was robbing him of intelligent thought, Lando was able to free himself. His feet, however, were severely frostbitten and required light bacta treatment in a portable gel-bath kept on the Falcon. Calrissian and Vuffi Raa investigated the largest pyramid and located the Mindharp, and were promptly teleported back to Rafa IV. Vuffi Raa, who in fact had been programmed to betray Calrissian before he had even been "won," promptly turned Calrissian in to Governor Mer. Mer greedily took the Mindharp and sentenced Calrissian to a lifetime of hard labor. However, Vuffi Raa, having fulfilled his imperative to betray Calrissian, rescued the gambler just as Mer activated the Mindharp. As the two fled Rafa IV, the transdimensional artifact's subharmonic emanations restored the Toka into the Sharu that they once were, and the great pyramids of the Rafa system crumbled, leaving alien cities in their wake. In doing so, the Mindharp released the Sharu from their imposed primitive nature, and Lando earned a reward.

Leaving the restored planet, Lando and Vuffi Raa entered hyperspace with a cargohold full of the last Rafa life-crystals. This valuable cargo netted Calrissian nearly 250,000 credits. After returning to Nar Shaddaa, he bought a used-starship lot from a Duros. To his dismay, he discovered the business was expensive and difficult to run. He debated whether he should either sell it or keep running it when the Galactic Empire arrived in the criminal-ridden system. To fight the intruders, Calrissian donated his inventory of ships to his fellow outlaws. He and Vuffi Raa piloted the Millennium Falcon deftly in the resulting Battle of Nar Shaddaa. During the battle, Lando flew alongside noted smugglers such as Salla Zend, Han Solo, and Mako Spince. The attack was diverted, but less than ten percent of his stock was still spaceworthy. As a result, Calrissian sold 90 percent ownership in what was left of his lot to Roa at a loss.

Setup on Oseon
As Calrissian sought a way to recover his losses, he saw an opportunity in the regional sabacc championships that were soon to be held at Cloud City's Yarith Bespin casino. In order to raise the ten thousand credit buy-in, Calrissian and Vuffi Raa returned to the Centrality and attempted to haul legitimate cargo. However, tariffs, fees, and licensing cost him more than he made, leaving him with nothing. Thus, when an opportunity to play sabacc in the Oseon system during the Flamewind arose, Calrissian accepted.

Soon after arriving at Oseon 6845, Calrissian was assaulted and forced to shoot his assailant in self-defense with his stingbeam. The Administrator Senior of the Oseon system, Lob Doluff, was required to inform Calrissian that the penalty for possessing a deadly weapon was death by exposure. Since the administrator admired Calrissian, he offered a solution to avoid execution. Doluff arranged for Calrissian to participate in a drug bust against the lesai-addicted, wealthy industrialist Bohhuah Mutdah. Posing as Mutdah's dealer, Calrissian transported two agents, Bassi Vobah and Waywa Fybot, through the maddening radiation of the Flamewind to Oseon 5792.

Unfortunately, Mutdah, who turned out to be Rokur Gepta in disguise, promptly killed the two agents and planned to kill Calrissian. Rokur forced the gambler to endure torture via a machine that made him relive all the painful moments of his life. Luckily, Calrissian was saved by the timely intervention of Renatasian starfighters whose goal was to kill Vuffi Raa. During the impending chaos surrounding his escape, Calrissian grabbed Mutdah's drug payment: a whole twenty million credits. He deposited small sums in banks on several worlds, including fifty thousand credits into the Bank of Aargau, which he planned to use for covering the entry fee for the Bespin sabacc tournament. Unfortunately, his attempt to deposit the bulk of the money on the Centrality's primary financial planet, Dela III, interrupted a pirate attack being committed by the "pirate queen" Drea Renthal. Despite Lando's charm, Renthal kept that large fraction of Mutdah's money.

Saving the Starcave of ThonBoka
Soon after, Calrissian encountered Lehesu, a young member of the space-dwelling, hyperjump-capable Oswaft species, whose curiosity had carried it from its home in the ThonBoka Nebula to a desolate part of the Centrality. He came in contact with Calrissian's ship, and after several halting attempts at communication, Lehesu finally conveyed his need for sustenance. Calrissian emptied the contents of the ship's recyclers into space, which Lehesu eagerly gobbled up.

Some months later, the Empire blockaded the entrance to the sack-shaped ThonBoka with five hundred capital ships whose intention was to starve the entire Oswaft race into extinction. The ships were mostly Carrack-class light cruisers that were modified to contaminate the "interstellar plankton" drifting into the nebula. Lehesu used a transceiver provided to him by Vuffi Raa to contact the Millennium Falcon and plead for help.

Lando managed to penetrate the blockade, using the ruse that he was a trader plying his wares to the very ships he sought to evade. Because of the fact that no one below the rank of Admiral was informed of the reason behind the blockade, the Falcon was inspected. The ship was allowed to continue for no one suspected that the ship's real cargo was anything but the ordinary waste carried in its trash and toilet recyclers. After working his way to the front of the blockade, Lando made a break for the mouth of the ThonBoka. Once inside, he contacted Lehesu and the Oswaft Elders, and they began making plans while other Oswaft went to negotiate with the picket fleet. The Empire's goals were complete extermination, however, so the Empire merely executed the negotiators. In the process, though, one of them 'shouted' at the unshielded cruiser Courteous, destroying it with its maser voice-stream. The fleet, seeking retribution, raised their shields and began to enter the Nebula, but were called back by Gepta, who sought to destroy Calrissian himself.

When Gepta arrived, the fleet remobilized and entered the nebula. Fortunately, their suspension had given Calrissian time to suggest a battle plan. The Oswaft excreted heavy metals from their pores and then jumped to hyperspace, leaving decoys placed between the enemy cruisers, resulting in massive Imperial casualties resulting from friendly fire. Meanwhile, the Oswaft 'shouted' at the starfighters, destroying them with their powerful masers. After the fleet's forces had been reduced by about eleven percent, the battle ceased, and Gepta offered Lando an ultimatum: engage Gepta in personal combat, or he would fire an electromagnetic torpedo into the nebula, killing all life therein.

Calrissian and Vuffi Raa (who was allowed to participate because Gepta believed he could reprogram the droid to betray his master) faced off against the Sorcerer of Tund in the vacuum of space. After much maneuvering and several ploys, Calrissian landed a stray shot in Gepta's ankle. The Sorcerer's form withered as he cried out and by pure chance hit Vuffi Raa. Calrissian searched the space suit and found an injured Croke&mdash;Gepta's true form&mdash;then proceeded to kill him.

At that, the battle renewed, but for only a moment. Out of nowhere, a multitude of fifty-kilometer diameter sentient droids suddenly appeared, demanding on all channels "Cease fire immediately or be destroyed!" They were the Silentium, the creators of Vuffi Raa, and they had come for their offspring. The Imperial fleet, faced with thousands of gigantic ships, retreated. Vuffi Raa's progenitors repaired the little droid and departed with him into the Unknown Regions. Afterwards, Lando departed the ThonBoka with a hold filled with valuable Oswaft-synthesized gemstones.

Failure and success


"No Human in the galaxy has a right to be that lucky."

- Barpotomous Drebble

Unfortunately, his turn of good fortune was once again countered with bad luck as his investment in a berubium mine in the Borgo asteroid belt turned out to be worthless. He was left with nothing except fifty thousand credits in his Aargau account and partial ownership of the Nar Shaddaa starship lot. During this time, he struck up a brief relationship with Drea Renthal, the very pirate who had stolen millions from him before.

To ease his desperate need for cash, Calrissian stole a treasure cache from the Glottalphib criminal Nandreeson, which earned him Nandreeson's undying hate and promise of sure death if the gambler ever returned to Smuggler's Run. Soon after, Calrissian entered the Cloud City Sabacc Tournament along with Solo. However, he wound up in second place to his friend Solo. During the final round Calrissian had placed a marker for any ship on his used starship lot as part of his bet. Unexpectedly and much to the gambler's dismay, Han chose the Millennium Falcon, the ugliest but most efficient ship in the lot, and Calrissian's favorite.

Lando, who was nearly broke after the tournament, managed some successful 'ventures' as he recouped his losses. He successfully scammed the governor of Pesmenben IV and later replaced the Falcon with the sleek Cobra. Free from any ventures to tie him down, he also spent a lot of time on cruise ships, slowly acquiring money through card games and sabacc. While traveling on the Queen of Empire, Lando encountered Bria Tharen&mdash;a Rebel agent and Han Solo's former girlfriend. He tried to strike up an acquaintance with her but was captured by Boba Fett along with Bria, the real bounty. As Fett was taking his two prisoners off the Queen, the ship was boarded by Drea Renthal, who paid Fett more than his current employer in exchange for letting his prisoners go.

Some time during this period, Lando made several highly profitable runs to Chandrila. His smuggling was made possible through some skillful bribery of local customs officials. On these runs, Lando would first encounter Hiram Drayson, an officer in the defense force who later became part of the New Republic.

Fallout with Solo
Some time later, Lando assisted Han Solo in an attack on the Hutt spice and slavery operations on Ylesia, which Han was involved in due to being in love with Rebel agent Bria Tharen, the mastermind of the attack. Consequently, Solo recruited several smugglers for the strike, including Lando. The role of the smugglers was to pilot the Rebels through Ylesia's turbulent atmosphere and then help defeat the guards. After meeting unexpectedly stiff resistance, they eventually were successful in destroying the Hutt operation and freeing the slaves. Bria changed plans, however, and kept the spoils for the Rebellion. This left Han with nothing to pay Lando and the smugglers, and created a large rift between Solo and Calrissian.

Shortly thereafter, Lando found himself on another treasure hunt sponsored by a trio of Hutts eagerly hunting the fabled Yavin Vassilika, a priceless, gemlike statuette, having been saved by Bib Fortuna after losing a game of Sabacc. The chase pitted him against some of the Underworld's most notorious bounty hunters, including Bossk, Dengar, and IG-88. Unfortunately, it also threw him in unwilling partnership with Han Solo again, which made for an uneasy alliance following the recent Ylesian spice fiasco. Since the rewards were considerable, they managed through it, bickering most of the way. In time, however, all parties realized they were being used again. This time, it was one of the Hutts' assistants, a woman named Jozzel Moffet. Unknowingly, this assistant was being directed by none other than Bria Tharen herself on behalf of the Rebellion. The Vassilika was the key to opening a Massassi temple, a place that would become a strategic Rebel outpost once opened. After the Vassilika had been found, and the dust settled on this adventure, Solo and Calrissian parted ways, their anger tempered to a mere distrust and agreement to stay on their own ends of the Galaxy.

Celebrity and Administrator


Five months after the Battle of Yavin, after shipping a cargo of denta beans to Taanab, he was caught up in a Norulac Freebooters raid. While in a Pandath cantina, Calrissian boasted that he could defeat the pirates. A drunken cantina patron named Gathal Danager, an employee of a Clendorian brewery, accepted the wager that Calrissian could pull it off. Thus, the gambler hid in the ice rings of Taanab's moon, and when the pirates approached their marks, he dumped his cargo of Conner nets into the midst of their fleet, temporarily disabling their ships. While they attempted to extricate themselves from the nets, he tractored ice chunks from the rings into their cockpits. He then led Taanab's orbital defense fleet in a mopping up operation. As a result, Calrissian single-handedly destroyed nineteen of the remaining vessels and crippled the pirate's two supporting corvettes. The ships were captured with all hands, thanks to Calrissian using yet more Conner nets to secure the escape pods. After TriNebulon News carried the story, Calrissian became a minor celebrity.

Later, while on Cloud City, Lando played a game of sabacc against the Baron Administrator of the facility, a man named Dominic Raynor. Because an anonymous benefactor had advanced Calrissian five million credits, the gambler bet four million and his lot on Nar Shaddaa against Raynor's administrators post, and won not only his ship back, but the whole game and became the new Baron Administrator of Cloud City. The unknown benefactor turned out to be Cloud City's cyborg liaison, Lobot, who had obtained the credits from the pooled funds of thousands of Ugnaught workers to ensure Raynor's departure.

Calrissian took his job as Baron Administrator seriously, working closely with Lobot for over two years. He deflected both the Mining Guild and the eyes of the Empire from the city, scouted new Tibanna plumes, hired pilots to protect the city from raids, repealed restrictive anti-alien immigration laws put in place by Raynor, and increased Tibanna gas profits by over 35%. In one incident, Cloud City's security chief, the droid EV-9D9, was found to have been torturing other droids, going so far as to dismantle a quarter of the city's droid population. She escaped on a stolen ship after being exposed, planting explosive charges that nearly destroyed Cloud City and Lando. The disaster was avoided, though EV-9D9 escaped; Calrissian and his new chief of security, Sarl Random, enacted new security procedures in the wake of this incident.

Entering the Galactic Civil War (3 ABY–4 ABY)
"Yeah, a Tibanna gas mine. Lando conned somebody out of it. We go back a long way, Lando and me." "Can you trust him?" "No. But he has no love for the Empire, I can tell you that."

- Han Solo and Leia Organa

Trap at Cloud City


As it was a key source of Tibanna gas, Cloud City was a lucrative target for the Galactic Empire, though Lando had so far managed to keep his operation beneath the attention of both the Empire and the Mining Guild. This was changed when Boba Fett and Darth Vader, in pursuit of the Millennium Falcon and its Rebel crew, reached Cloud City before the Falcon did. In order to preserve his independence, Lando agreed to help detain the Falcon's crew until Luke Skywalker arrived and was captured by Vader.

Playing the part of a congenial host, Lando greeted his old buddy Han and his companions Chewbacca, Leia Organa, and C-3PO. He gladly agreed to help fix the Falcon's damaged hyperdrive while they enjoyed Cloud City's hospitality. The travelers, however, did not trust Lando entirely, especially after the disappearance of C-3PO. Not long after their arrival, Lando invited the Rebels to refreshments and led them to Darth Vader and his stormtroopers, where Han, Leia, and Chewbacca were captured. Much to Lando's chagrin, Vader considerably altered the original deal. The Dark Lord insisted that Leia and Chewbacca remain on Bespin and decided to test the carbonite-freezing chamber (normally used to prepare Tibanna gas for shipment) on Han Solo, hoping that the same apparatus could be used on Luke to transport him to the Emperor. Lando, increasingly unhappy with the arrangement, which now included the torturing of Han Solo, informed Han and Leia of their fate, telling them "I had no choice." Han did not take this well, and punched the Baron Administrator.

Lando personally supervised Solo's freezing, and announced that the freezing had been successful: Han was in perfect hibernation, encased inside a slab of carbonite. Then Vader altered the deal further by taking Leia and Chewbacca as Imperial prisoners. Lando realized that the Dark Lord had no intention of making good on his promises and, via Lobot, summoned a group of the Wing Guard to help free Leia and Chewbacca from the Imperial stormtroopers.



Though they had been freed, Leia and Chewbacca did not trust Lando, but went with him to try and rescue Han. As they evaded stormtroopers and pursued Fett, Lando announced the takeover of Cloud City by the Empire and ordered its evacuation. Unfortunately, Lando, Leia, and Chewbacca barely missed catching Fett, and the bounty hunter escaped with his frozen prize.

Meeting up with R2-D2 and retreating to the Falcon, they took off under fire from stormtroopers and were almost immediately pursued by Imperial TIE fighters. As they escaped Bespin, Leia received Luke's call for help through the Force and had Lando return to rescue him. Under threat from Chewbacca, Lando flew the ship back and pulled the wounded Luke into the ship via the top hatch. While trying to escape Bespin, it was realized that the hyperdrive had not been repaired and that the ship had been sabotaged. R2-D2 fixed the "repaired" hyperdrive and Lando piloted the Falcon to the Rebel rendezvous point.

The search for Han Solo
"When we find Jabba the Hutt and that bounty hunter, we'll contact you." "I'll meet you at the rendezvous point on Tatooine."

- Lando Calrissian and Luke Skywalker

Cody Sunn-Childe's dream
"I wonder how long your "truth" would hold up if the war you ran away from came knocking on your front&hellip; door&hellip;?!"

- Lando Calrissian to Cody Sunn-Childe, suddenly interrupted by an Imperial attack

Feeling guilty for what had happened to his old friend and coming to view the Empire as evil, Lando joined the Rebel Alliance, allying with Chewbacca and using the Millennium Falcon to search for Han Solo. One day, while utterly lost, the pair stumbled across a dimensional rift inhabited by Cody Sunn-Childe, a former Rebel Alliance operative and a hero of Lando's who had used strange powers he'd gained during his travels to construct a City of Dreams in a dimensional rift. Angered by Sunn-Childe's abandonment of the Rebel cause, Lando threw a punch at him, only to be attacked by several creatures&mdash;manifestations of the darker side of Sunn-Childe's power&mdash;which were immediately absorbed by Sunn-Childe, lest they cause injury to Lando.

The former Rebel's city had a hypnotizing effect on its inhabitants as they were enthralled by the phantasmagoric surroundings, even Chewbacca. The Wookiee, spellbound, even seemed to forget the search for Han in favor of the city's distractions and had roughly punched Lando for speaking ill of the city. As Lando walked back to the Falcon, the city was attacked by an Imperial fleet led by Captain Plikk, who had also become trapped in the rift. The attack caused many, Chewbacca included, to snap out of their charmed state. Lando and Chewie piloted the Millennium Falcon against the Imperials, but the battle was cut short when Sunn-Childe, who had at first allowed his mysterious manifestations to attack the Star Destroyers, made no further attempt to stop the Imperial bombardment of the city, letting the fleet utterly destroy it and all its citizens, himself included. The Falcon then escaped through the rapidly closing dimensional gate, but the Imperials, lacking the hyperdrive power to escape because of their excessive bombardment, were forever trapped in Sunn-Childe's dimension.

Skywalker's affliction
"Something terrible has happened. Terrible enough to send me combing the Galaxy for you two&hellip; and have you abandon the search for Han."

- Leia to Chewbacca and Lando

Lando and Chewbacca's frantic search for Han was again cut short as Leia Organa summoned them to a Rebel base on Golrath. Once there, they were informed that Luke Skywalker had caught a deadly disease known as the "Crimson Forever" after boarding an Imperial vessel and finding its crew crimson-colored and dead. Suspecting a red-glowing stone aboard the ship to be the source of whatever killed the Imperials, Luke rushed back to the Rebel headquarters, but he was already infected. In a short time, Luke was lying comatose, his eyes turned scarlet red. Leia remembered a story Han Solo had told her about the Red Nebula that featured a pair of stones similar to the one that infected Luke. Chewbacca regaled the tale, and the group came to the conclusion that the "Crimson Forever" stone was indeed one of those Chewie and Han had encountered&mdash;when the two stones were separated, they were extremely lethal. Following up on the lead, Chewbacca, Lando and Leia piloted the Millennium Falcon to the Red Nebula, only to find a seemingly abandoned House of Tagge spaceship. Lando and Leia boarded the vessel while Chewbacca waited in the Falcon and immediately saw victims of the "Crimson Forever". Convinced that it was nearby, they started looking for the second stone. Their search was cut short, however, when they were captured by a gang of bounty hunters employed by Domina Tagge.

Tagge explained that the stones were part of her plan to kill Luke Skywalker as revenge for the death of her brother, Orman Tagge, which Darth Vader had falsely accused Luke of being responsible for. She had hired the bounty hunters to retrieve the stones once word of the deadliness of the red-glowing rocks reached her. Bombing the planet where the stones had been held, she soon had them in her grasp. Tagge and company were surprised by an Imperial warship, however, and the Tagge ship was boarded by stormtroopers. Not wanting to risk her plan, Tagge at first allowed the Imperials to seize one of the stones&mdash;encased in a protective canister&mdash;and even told them the location of the Rebel Alliance's base on Golrath. Provoking a firefight, Tagge's bounty hunters forced the stormtroopers to retreat back to their own ship and jump to hyperspace, heading for Golrath. Unbeknownst to the Imperials, Tagge had tinkered with the canister of their stone, making it burst open when it was placed under the pressure of hyperspace travel. By the time they arrived near Golrath, they were all dead, and the ghost ship trap was set for Skywalker. However, a priest the bounty hunters had captured to get information about the stones from, released the stone in Tagge's ship from its canister as well, killing many. Domina and a few bounty hunters were able to seal themselves away on the ship, avoiding certain death, but lacking space suits to shield themselves from the disease, they were trapped.

Escaping Tagge and her crew by jumping through an airlock, Leia and Lando were picked up by the Falcon. Realizing that they needed the stone to cure Luke, Leia struck a deal with Domina&mdash;the Rebels would save her and her bounty hunters from the "Crimson Forever"-infested ship, and in return, she would hand over her stone so they could stop the plague. As the crystals were reunited on Golrath, Luke was cured. Domina and her accomplices flew off in an escape ship per the agreement, and the stones were loaded aboard the Imperial ghost ship, which was sent straight into Golrath's sun.

Destruction of the Tarkin
"They left me out of this mission because they thought I couldn't be trusted. But stowing away so I could be their ace-in-the-hole should prove that&mdash;"

- Lando Calrissian's thoughts interrupted by an approaching stormtrooper patrol

Informed by an operative that the Empire was constructing a new superweapon&mdash;the Tarkin&mdash;the Rebellion ordered Chewbacca and Lando to stop their search for a new planet on which the Alliance could establish a new headquarters and return to the temporary base, where they were briefed on their new mission&mdash;to destroy the Tarkin. A small commando team, consisting of Luke, Leia, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2, were to sneak aboard the superweapon dressed as workers and strike at its reactor with a proton grenade. Lando, whom both Leia and General Rieekan thought of as untrustworthy, was "left out" of the mission but the gambler stowed away on the Falcon that the commando team piloted to Hockaleg, the planet over which the Tarkin orbited. Lando hoped to make himself useful by staying with the Falcon, ready to rush to the superweapon to save his friends.

Unbeknownst to the commando team, Darth Vader was also present at the space station, having sensed that Skywalker had infiltrated it. Believing the Rebels' plan was to destroy the Tarkin ' s reactor, Vader personally saw to the protection of that area, delegating the rest of the security personnel to potential escape routes. However, just as he was en route to catch Luke, a group of high-ranking Imperial officers attempted to kill the Sith by opening an airlock, sending Vader into space. The plan was foiled by Vader himself&mdash;using the dark side of the Force he was able to pull himself back into the Tarkin from the vacuum of space. This distraction helped Luke barely escape the Dark Lord. In the meantime, Leia had wired the superweapon's ion cannon to fire upon itself&mdash;something that would utterly destroy the station.

Meanwhile, on Hockaleg, Lando was approached by a stormtrooper patrol, but he was able to "bribe" them with two kilos of what he said was Gannarian narco-spice&mdash;in reality, it was simply slime yeast from the Falcon's provisions. At the same time, on the Tarkin, the Rebel commando team prepared to flee the space station, aborting their original mission. Just as they rocketed off the station, they were followed by two TIE fighters. They had little chance of survival until Lando appeared with the Millennium Falcon, blasting the enemy craft and bringing the group aboard the YT-1300. Darth Vader boarded his personal modified TIE and gave chase, but he was ultimately outmaneuvered by Luke when the young Jedi jettisoned the Falcon ' s water supply into space, creating an instant ice barrier that Vader crashed into. Seeing that the Rebels were about to escape, the officers aboard the Tarkin decided to fire the superweapon on the lone freighter. However, thanks to Leia's wiring of the ion cannon, the space station exploded violently. The Rebels escaped to safety while discussing Princess Leia's ion cannon-tinkering.

A short while later, while investigating an incredible power source on Ventooine, Lando, Luke and C-3PO discovered a giant golden statue of Han Solo as they were being chased by Imperial stormtroopers. The statue had been erected by Vetter Piin, a man Solo had helped in the past. After listening to the tale of Solo's escapades on the planet through a memory stone, the three defeated the pursuing stormtroopers by tricking them into a room with a specific mineral composition that put them into suspended animation.

The search for Leia
"I hate to disappoint you, ugly&mdash;but this is as far as you go!"

- Lando to Sk'ar

Some time later, Princess Leia went missing while on a mission to investigate Imperial activity in the Shiva system. Luke, Chewbacca and Lando embarked on a desperate search for her before finally finding her on Shiva IV&mdash;a technologically primitive planet. Unable to leave the planet due to its lack of space technology, she had gotten tangled up in a conflict between the Calian Confederacy and the Galactic Empire. The Empire, lead by General Sk'ar, sought to invade Shiva IV by destabilizing the Confederacy&mdash;wiping out cities using anti-matter bombs, and kidnapping Aron Peacebringer, the Warlord of the Confederacy, as well as Leia.

Lando, Chewie and Luke found Leia just as she was being assailed by Ygal Delois, a Calian Imperial sympathizer, while attempting to defuse an anti-matter bomb meant to destroy the Confederacy's capital, Illÿriaqum. As Chewbacca and Luke fought Delois, Lando landed the Millennium Falcon only to discover a fleeing General Sk'ar. Lando fired at the General, but the enormous man carried a personal anti-blaster shield, so the blaster bolts had no effect. Unable to defeat Sk'ar in close combat, Lando pretended to be knocked unconscious after being slapped to the ground. Luckily for the Rebels, Lando later spotted spotted Sk'ar's escape ship, prompting Chewbacca to throw a large piece of metal shrapnel at it, causing it to explode. With Sk'ar's forces defeated, the Rebels were hailed as heroes in a large celebration, where Lando was the center of attention for several Calian women.

Return to Cloud City
Afterwards, as the Rebel Alliance was establishing its new base on Arbra, Lando made a return visit to the Imperialized Cloud City. Upon arrival, he was flabbergasted by the apparent abandonment of the city. Unable to locate a single person, he queried the city's central computer, which informed him that all of Cloud City's residents had been evacuated to the artificial surface located below the city itself. Upon learning this, he was attacked by Lobot, who sprang from the shadows behind him. Lobot had somehow identified Calrissian as an "intruder" and "threat to the city," and was set on destroying the returned Socorran. Lando took several punches, and was hurled around a few times by the cyborg, but eventually escaped. Wandering around Cloud City, he soon happened upon an Imperial patrol, led by Captain Hugo Treece. As Treece informed his men of the task that lay before them, Lando learned that the city had been evacuated due to a bomb threat from disloyal Ugnaught workers. The Imperial patrol was to make sure any bombs were defused. Spotting a chance to divert Lobot's attention from himself to the Imperials, Lando opened fire, killing a stormtrooper. Treece immediately ordered his men to attack their assailant. Lando lured the pursuing stormtroopers into Cloud City's carbon-freezing room, then knocked them all into the freezing pit. He dedicated the following carbon-freezing of the stormtroopers to Han Solo. Meanwhile, the remainder of Treece's men were attempting to defuse a bomb. This failed horribly, and caused a sizable explosion which rocked the city itself. Concerned about the explosion, and hoping to escape the wrath of the impending Lobot, Calrissian fleed the carbon-freezing room. Shortly after, he stumbled upon the site of the explosion, and found all the Imperials dead&mdash;save one. Hugo Treece had survived without a scratch, and pulled a blaster on Lando&mdash;an action mirrored by Calrissian. Realizing their predicament, the two agreed to temporarily work together for the benefit of their mutual survival. Treece elaborated on the Ugnaught bomb threat, while Calrissian conjured up a plan to save the city.

Calrissian acted as bait, and tricked Lobot into the grasp of a loading claw operated by Treece. Realizing that not even such a tight grip could hold the cyborg, Lando removed Lobot's motivational programming capsule, rendering the crazed automaton unconscious. Before long, Calrissian had fixed Lobot's broken programming, and the three went about disarming the rest of the Ugnaught-planted bombs. When that task was completed, Lando appealed to Treece, asking that he treat the Ugnaught workers with respect. Treece promptly refused, and kicked Calrissian off the ledge of Cloud City. As Treece watched Lando plummet towards the artificial surface, Lobot deduced that the Imperial officer had become a threat to the city, and seeing as Calrissian was the one most likely to defeat him, it was imperative that he be rescued. He swiftly grabbed a jetpack, hurled himself off the city's edge, and soon caught up with and grabbed Calrissian.

The two landed in a swamp on the artificial surface, right next to a boat full laden with a Ugnaught team of journalists that were hoping to catch the destruction of Cloud City on film. They were initially helped aboard the boat, but as the Ugnaughts recognized Calrissian, suggestions were made to lynch the former Baron Administrator. Such thoughts were cut short as two Imperial skimmers attacked the Ugnaught vessel. Calrissian reacted quickly and, despite the reluctance of the journalists, made an improvised slingshot that sent a camera flying straight into one of the skimmers, causing it to explode. The Ugnaughts retreated, and led Lobot and Lando to their city. There, the Ugnaught leader, King Ozz, told Lando of the poor working conditions that had been established on Cloud City during the Imperial reign. This greatly upset Lando, who immediately hatched a plan to reclaim the city.

Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker and Shira Brie had arrived on Cloud City, only to find themselves pinned down by Imperial fire. Luckily for them, Lando arrived with the Ugnaught journalists, and informed the Imperials that if they didn't flee the station, he would order Lobot to re-arm the Ugnaught explosives. Treece promptly shot Lobot in the head. However, Skywalker was able to create a set of mock explosions that frightened the Imperials into leaving. Following this, the Ugnaught population moved back into Cloud City, and held a large celebration in which Calrissian, Skywalker, Brie, and the repaired Lobot participated. As the celebrations continued, Lando and his fellow Rebels returned to their base on Arbra.

Revolution on Sarna
Not long after, Lando was unknowingly used as both commander and decoy in a civil war on Drogheda. Initially summoned to the planet by Queen Sarna, who was an old flame of his, he led royalist forces to defeat a small band of revolutionaries. After that, and learning that the revolutionaries were fighting for democracy, Lando attempted to leave the planet, but was halted by the Queen's guards who saw him as a traitor. While the guards were preoccupied with chasing Lando, a large group of revolutionaries conquered the royal palace and dethroned Sarna. Revolutionary leader and sister of the Queen, Danu, promptly kicked Lando off the planet, and forced him to take Sarna with him.

Business on Bazarre
On a mission to acquire black-market TIE fighters for the Alliance, Lando, Chewbacca and Luke journeyed to the space station Bazarre to meet with Orion Ferret, the administrator of the station. Lando, due to prior dealings with Ferret, was suspicious of him. Ferret gave them a ship and the location of the garbage planet Patch 4, where the fighters were located. Leaving Chewbacca and the Falcon on Bazarre, Lando and Luke journeyed to Patch 4. After searching the refuse and rubble, they located the TIE fighters, but were attacked by a large creature. Retreating into the nearby caves, Luke and Lando discovered a community of vagabonds living inside the caves. One of the inhabitants, Serja Kesselrook, informed the two Rebels that the creature was controlled by a sonic pacifier on the ship they had been given, which meant that Ferret had been controlling it and had betrayed them. Returning to confront the beast, Lando distracted it by shooting while Luke went to the ship and used the sonic pacifier to put the beast to sleep. Then, they retrieved the fighters, returned to get the Falcon and Chewbacca, and returned to Arbra.

Some time later, Luke came under suspicion of killing Shira Brie. Lando offered his assistance, helping Luke to "steal" the Millennium Falcon so he could investigate the case.

Encounter with Black Sun
Lando continued the search for Han Solo, hiring a guide who knew where Boba Fett had been hiding. Flying the Falcon, Lando, Leia, and Luke attempted to intercept Boba Fett and rescue Han at Gall, but their guide, Dash Rendar, abandoned them, and the opposing Imperial forces were too numerous for the Rebels to pursue Fett's fleeing Slave I.

Lando was with Leia and Chewbacca when they met with the Black Sun representative Guri. With the Wookiee's help, he discovered that Guri was actually a droid. When Leia and Chewbacca went to Coruscant with Guri, Lando eventually met up with Luke and sneaked into the capital world to find the Princess and the Wookiee. When Chewbacca told them of Leia's capture by the lustful Xizor, Lando and the others journeyed through the sewers into the sub-sub-basement levels of Xizor's Palace. Once inside, they worked their way up and were reunited with Leia, who had escaped as well. Finding themselves surrounded by Xizor's guards, and the Prince himself, Lando pulled out a thermal detonator, set it to explode after five minutes and dropped it into the garbage chute. In the ensuing chaos of fleeing guards and employees, the Rebels made good their escape, boarding the Millennium Falcon (which had been brought to the castle by R2-D2 and C-3PO). With Lando safely back at the controls, they flew off Coruscant, pursued by Xizor's considerable forces. However, the timely interference of both Rogue Squadron and the Imperial Navy allowed the Falcon to escape.

Trouble on Stenos
After Xizor's death, Lando returned to the Rebel base on Arbra. Leia had received information regarding Han Solo: The bounty hunters Dengar, IG-88 and Bossk, was aware of where Boba Fett was storing the Corellian. In light of this, Lando traveled to The Wheel, accompanied by Luke and Chewbacca. While there, he was informed that IG-88 and Bossk had been spotted on Stenos.

Leaving Chewbacca aboard the Millennium Falcon, Luke and Lando searched Stenos for any clue of Solo's whereabouts. They eventually spotted a metal storage block similar to the one Solo was frozen in, being carried into a building. As they broke into the building, they discovered that the metal casket contained Chihdo, a Rodian, and was merely bait for a trap set by Bossk and IG-88. As the two bounty hunters cornered Lando and Luke, Rik Duel and Dani, friends of Chihdo, rushed to their aid. Despite their efforts, the four were eventually rounded up. While about to be frozen in carbonite, Chewbacca and a band of native Stenaxes charged, causing Bossk and IG-88 to flee.

Finding Argo and Vanis
"My plans involve secrecy&hellip; subtlety&hellip; subterfuge&hellip;"

- Lando Calrissian

Soon after, Lando, Luke, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and Dani&mdash;who had snuck aboard the Falcon as it left Stenos&mdash;teamed up with Leia Organa and C-3PO on a new mission. The group was charged with tracking down the undercover Rebel operatives Yom Argo and Tay Vanis who were tasked with finding the plans of the second Death Star. Pursuing Argo first, they found records of him crashing on the planet Lahsbane. Closer investigation revealed that Argo had died in the crash, along with a native Lahsbee. The natives kept the tapes from Argo's starship&mdash;the Death Star plans included&mdash;to themselves, to honor their fallen kinsman. Leia and Dani were fortunately able to retrieve the tapes from The Forbidden City.

Tracking Tay Vanis to the planet Iskalon, the group soon got involved in the delicate conflict between the Galactic Empire and the other planets in the sector. They were informed by the leader of the Iskalonians, Primor, that Vanis's old K3PX droid was present on Gamandar, a heavily fortified Imperial planet not far from Iskalon. Hoping to find clues to Vanis's whereabouts through his droid, Lando, together with Chewbacca, Mone, C-3PO and R2-D2 flew the Millennium Falcon to Gamandar. They purchased the K3PX droid from the Imperials, but unbeknownst to the Rebels was that K3PX had been turned into an espionage droid employed by Darth Vader himself. Even though they were captured, R2-D2 saved them when he returned from pursuing another lead of his own. ). Fleeing Gamandar, they picked up Leia and Luke on Iskalon. The mission ended a failure with no information about Vanis recovered.

Returning to the Arbra base to report their failure, they were informed that a third Rebel operative apparently had gotten hold of the Death Star plans: Han Solo. Although it seemed impossible that the Corellian had escaped Boba Fett, Lando and Chewbacca were nevertheless sent to investigate, but were apparently unable to find anything.

Mission to Yinchorr
"Luke, it could be nothing. Maybe&hellip;" "No, Lando, there's trouble -- and it feels like the Empire."

- Lando and Luke after receiving Leia's distress call

In an effort to gain more support for the Rebellion and its fight against the Empire, Princess Leia organized a diplomatic mission to the planet of Yinchorr. Wanting to foster a sense of trust between the Rebellion and the Yinchorri, Leia decided to go on the mission by herself, and unarmed, so as not to threaten the Yinchor leaders. Though he did not agree with Leia's stance on the subject, Luke gave her an emergency beacon which she could trigger if any problems arose. Luke, meanwhile, boarded the Millennium Falcon, along with Lando and Chewbacca, to rejoin the main Rebel fleet.

Once on Yinchorr, Leia soon discovered that she had been betrayed by the Yinchorri, who planned to hand her over to the Empire. Having been shot down by Imperial TIE fighters, Leia activated her emergency beacon, hoping that Luke and Lando would reach her in time&mdash;or at all. Eventually, Leia was confronted by Moff Marcellin Wessel and his stormtroopers, but at that moment, Lando, Luke, and the Falcon arrived to rescue the Princess. With the help of Lando and Luke, Leia boarded the Falcon and was able to rendezvous with Alliance forces.

Hutt guardsman


Lando learned that Solo had been delivered to Jabba Desilijic Tiure while undercover on Arcan IV, and put into motion plans to infiltrate the crimelord's base. On Blimph 3, he visited Quaffug the Hutt in hopes of winning him over to the Rebel cause. Quaffug was uninterested in this and decided to execute Calrissian by having several high-profile bounty hunters chase the Socorran down. Calrissian not only escaped the bounty hunters, but he ended up saving Quaffug's life. In return, Quaffug gave his support to the Rebel Alliance and arranged for Lando to be accepted into the Hutt Guardsman's Guild. Adopting the pseudonym Tamtel Skreej, Lando infiltrated Jabba the Hutt's organization as a guard in Jabba's throne room.

However, this was not enough to gain the Hutt's trust and so, hoping to prove himself and impress the Hutt, Lando volunteered to enter Jabba's demolition games. He offered to take the controls to one of Jabba's modified desert skiffs in order to participate. It was during this time that Lobot also came to Jabba's palace, hoping to dismantle the rogue droid EV-9D9. Though Jabba was planning on feeding the cyborg to his rancor, Lando suggested that Lobot instead be placed in the games with him. As Lobot did not know that the disguised Tamtel Skreej was in fact Lando, the two became opponents.



Lando was present as each member of the rescue team&mdash;R2-D2, C-3PO, Leia (disguised as Boushh), Chewbacca, and finally Luke Skywalker&mdash;arrived. Deciding to wait until all the team was in place, Lando remained in his role even as Han Solo&mdash;released from carbonite by Leia&mdash;and Chewbacca were imprisoned and Leia's identity was revealed, resulting in her enslavement. Even after Luke arrived, Lando remained the "ace-in-the-hole" as the Jedi defeated Jabba's monstrous rancor.

When Luke, Han, and Chewbacca were sentenced to execution in the Great Pit of Carkoon, Lando was a guard on the same skiff as the prisoners, ready to spring them on Luke's cue. At the Pit of Carkoon, as Luke received his lightsaber from Artoo and fought off the other guards, Lando helped free the other prisoners. In the process, he was nearly knocked into the maw of the sarlacc. Only the timely intervention of a partially blinded Han Solo and Chewbacca saved him from the Sarlacc. After Luke defeated the guards and rescued Leia from the Khetanna, Lando piloted the skiff away as Jabba's barge exploded.

The Battle of Endor
"Well, look at you! A general, huh?"

- Han Solo

In preparation for the attack on the second Death Star, Calrissian was promoted by the Alliance to Restore the Republic to general, based largely on the laurels of his victory at Taanab. At the Battle of Endor, General Calrissian commanded the Rebel starfighter contingent as Gold Leader. At the urging of Han Solo, he once again piloted from the cockpit of his old ship, the Millennium Falcon, this time alongside copilot Nien Nunb.



When the Alliance discovered that the battle was orchestrated by the Empire as a trap (largely thanks to Calrissian's announcement that saved dozens of starfighters from smashing into the Death Star's shield), the gambler's unorthodox strategies were vital in keeping the flailing Alliance forces from collapsing. He suggested taking the fleet's Mon Calamari Star Cruisers into point blank range of the Empire's Star Destroyers, exposing them to the Empire's warships but protecting them from the far more dangerous superlaser of the unexpectedly operational Death Star. At one point in the battle, while pursuing two TIE Interceptors, Calrissian approached a Super Star Destroyer too closely; rather than flee, Calrissian flew the Falcon into the hangar bay of the massive ship, flew through an interior access corridor, and, after blasting away at the unarmored innards, flew back out the way he came ahead of a sensor-obscuring fireball, saving the ship and crew from what otherwise would have been certain death.

Eventually, the strike team on the surface of Endor was able to bring the shield protecting the Death Star down. Calrissian, along with Wedge Antilles, led the starfighter assault into the battle station to destroy it. After evading TIEs and having close run-ins with the station's superstructure resulting in the loss of the Falcon's long-range sensor dish, Calrissian fired concussion missiles into the Death Star's reactor core, destroying the station; for the second time that day, Calrissian rode a fireball from inside an Imperial structure to safety.

The destruction of the second Death Star, along with Luke and Anakin Skywalker's victory over the Emperor, effectively sealed the fate of the Empire, and Calrissian was hailed a hero.

Under the New Republic (4 ABY–25 ABY)
After the Battle of Endor, Calrissian continued to serve the Rebel Alliance and its successor governments&mdash;the Alliance of Free Planets, the New Republic, and the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances&mdash;usually as a civilian, but intermittently taking up his general's commission.

Following the Rebel victory at Endor, Lando stayed behind on the moon to "keep an eye on how the Alliance was handling the Empire's defeat."

Mission to the Hunter's World
"Let's get out of here!"

- Lando, to Han a Chewbacca

With the defeat of the Empire at the Battle of Endor, the Alliance leadership began preparations for the establishment of an internment government. Part of this was to invite various representatives from a planets throughout the galaxy to come and have their voice be heard at the first meeting of the Alliance of Free Planets. One such planet was that of Keyorin, also known at the Hunter's World due to its popularity amongst bounty hunters. Volunteering for the mission to Keyorin were Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando. The reason for the Lando and Han to volunteer for this mission was that Keyorin was the first planet in a long string of diplomatic missions which would eventually pass the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk. Chewbacca had not been able to visit his homeworld for a long time, and Han wanted to be able to provide the opportunity to his old friend. Lando, likewise, enlisted his services, and those of his ship the Cobra, to the mission so that if Chewbacca wished to stay on Kashyyyk for longer than planned, then he would not be without a ship. However, before Chewbacca would be able to visit his home, the three smugglers would have to first complete a diplomatic mission to the Hunter's World.



Leaving the forest moon of Endor behind, Lando, Han, and Chewbacca traveled to Keyorin and were granted an audience with Pinurquian Tinketh Fo, who was the planetary leader of the Hunter's World. After the short meeting, in which Fo agreed to think about attending the Alliance meeting, Han led Lando and Chewbacca to a small bar where the trio decided to unwind before continuing their mission. However, shortly after their arrival, the Trandoshan Bossk made an appearance, an appearance which startled both Lando and Chewbacca. Not understanding why one more bounty hunter would cause his friends such discomfort, Han gradually grew irritated at their hushed tones. Lando, not wanting to draw the attenion of Bossk, told Han that while Han had been encased in carbonite, the trail that they had been following to rescue him had grown cold. As a result, Lando devised the idea of tricking several bounty hunters into tracking down Han's trail, hoping to follow them to his friend's location. One of the said bounty hunters who Lando tricked was Bossk. However, when the trio decided to leave the bar, Lando ended up running into another acquaintance, an acquaintance whose identity Lando had stolen&mdash;Barpotomous Drebble. Drebble, himself, was quite powerful within the community of Keyorin, and was the owner of the bar which Lando and company had been in. Upon seeing Drebble, Lando, Han, and Chewbacca fled the establishment, but were eventually captured by Drebble while they were trying to board the Falcon. Taking Lando into custody, Drebble handed Han and Chewbacca over to the criminals Lemo and Sanda who had also been chasing the trio. With Lando his prisoner, Drebble attempted to operate the Cobra, but instead activated a holo-recording from Mon Mothma, leader of the Allaince. The recording stated that because of his efforts in aiding the Rebellion, Drebble was to be awarded for his bravery, and granted the rank of Captain within the Alliance. Lando, however, could still not believe that Drebble was getting rewarded for all of the work that Lando had done, disguised as Drebble, during his search for Han. During this time, the Cobra was attacked by Lemo and Sanda who had been tricked by Han into believing that Drebble was in possession of a rare statue known as the Dancing Goddess. The ensuing fight saw Drebble release Lando to help against the criminals, and also witnessed the arrival of both Han and Chewbaaca who had managed to escape captivity. With Lemo and Sanda having surrendered, Drebble decided to let go of the past, and forgive Lando of his past transgressions&mdash;Drebble was too excited about his new title within the Alliance, along with the enormous opportunities it would afford him. Before the trio departed Keyorin, Lando, who had been in possession of the Dancing Goddess all along, decided that the best way to keep Lemo and Sanda from tracking the statue further, was to award it Drebble for his past "services" to the Rebellion. Drebble accepted the statue with full enthusiasm, much to the disappointment of the two criminals.

Trouble on Kashyyyk
"&hellip;I can't help feeling that something's wrong here&hellip;like there may be trouble."

- Lando speaking to Han Solo shortly after arriving on Kashyyyk

Following their escape from the Hunter's World, Lando, Han, and Chewbacca continued on to the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk. Upon arriving at the jungle world, the trio set both the Falcon and Cobra down on a landing pad, and set out to find Chewbacca's wife, Mallatobuck, and his son, Lumpawaroo. While following Chewbacca to his home, Lando and the others were confronted by a male identified only as Knife, as well as Chewbacca's brother-in-law Vargi. Though Lando and Han sensed that something was wrong, they allowed Knife and Vargi to accompany them to Mala's home.



Shortly after arriving at Chewbacca's home, Knife and Vargi sprang a trap which was aimed at capturing Chewbacca. Lando and Han soon realized that Knife had hired Wookiees, like Vargi, to help with re-initiating the slave trade on Kashyyyk. In an effort make his job easier, Knife wanted to capture Chewbacca, who was a hero throughout Kashyyyk, along with his family and parade them through the streets in an effort to demoralize the other Wookiees. With Chewbacca firmly under his control, Knife left both Lando and Han under the watchful eyes of several guards. Nonetheless, Lando was able to pick the lock on his and Han's cuffs, and the two managed to escape from their captivity.

While Han attempted to free Chewbacca from custody, Lando decided to make his way back to the Cobra and attempt to send out a distress signal to the Alliance. Along the way, he encountered Chewbacca's father, wife, and son, who were being held captive in a hanger, and managed to free them from the slavers. With Chewbacca's family safe, Lando was able to send out the distress call like he and Han had decided upon. Believing that Han was in trouble, Lando hurried away from the hanger, and made his way to where Han had managed to free Chewbacca. However, during the freeing of Chewbacca, both he and Han had been assaulted by Wookiee slavers who were being directed by Knife. When it became clear that Chewbacca, in a fit of rage, was a danger to himself, Knife attempted to throw on of his several blades at the angry Wookiee. Nevertheless, Lando managed to arrive in time and used his blaster to shot the blade out of Knife's hand. Seeing that his plans had become unraveled, Knife ran away while the freed Wookiees celebrated. Due to the sheer number of Wookiees who had been freed, and who were now celebrating with eachother, Lando and Han were unable to pursue Knife. As a result, Knife was able to steal Lando's ship, the Cobra, and use it to escape Kashyyyk.

The destruction of Naldar
"It's like walking through a ghost town."

- Lando, after landing on Naldar

With the slavers routed on Kashyyyk, Lando, Han, and Chewbacca returned to the Alliance command on Endor, where they were reunited with both Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa. Following a short briefing with Admiral Ackbar, where Lando helped explain what had transpired on the Wookiee homeworld, a ship of unknown origins arrived on Endor whose pilot sought an audience with the Alliance leadership. The pilot, who identified themself as Denin, told Lando and those gathered about the Imperial invasion and occupation of the planet Naldar, where Denin confessed to be the last surviving member of the royal bloodline. After hearing about the Imperial takeover of Naldar, Luke Skywalker organized a relief force comprised of Lando, Han, Leia, Chewbacca, Barney and the droids C-3P0 and R2-D2, to aid Denin in the fight to free Naldar from the Empire.



Upon arriving at Naldar, Lando and the rest of the party were surprised to find the capital city, which Denin had told them was the most fortified city on the planet, completely destroyed. At that moment, the Falcon was attacked by a group of Imperial TIE fighters, and was damaged when a surface cannon from the planet managed to hit them. Forced to land on Naldar, the group split up: Leia and C-3P0 left to go look for replacement parts to use on the Falcon; Han and Chewbacca opted to stay behind and attempt what repairs they could; and Lando, Luke, and Denin departed for the capital city in search of survivors. During their search of the capital, Lando and his team were ambushed by Imperial stormtroopers led by a mysterious figure in black armor, an apprentice of Darth Vader named Flint. Knowing that Lando and Denin were no match for a dark side warrior like Flint, Luke ordered them to retreat back to the Falcon and warn the others. Lando, however, could not stand the thought of leaving one his good friends in danger, and upon returning to the Falcon, organized a rescue team to assist Luke.

With the help of Leia, Han, Chewbacca, and Barney, Lando led was able to rescue Luke who had been wounded by a stormtrooper's blaster shot. However, Flint did not expect to see his childhood friend, Barney, among the rescuers. With the intervention of Barney, Flint was able to see the error of his ways and how he had allowed his anger over the deaths of his parents to control his actions. With his newfound perspective on life, Flint ordered the Imperial forces to desist in their plan to further destroy the capital city using an enormous energy cannon. Even though Flint had turned away from the dark path, Denin, who had confessed to actually be the princess Vila, was gunned down by a stormtrooper attempting to kill Flint. Lando was among those present who watched as Vila died a hero for her planet.

Work for the Alliance
Following the surrender of Flint on Naldar, it became known to the Alliance leadership that a new conflict had spilled over into Alliance space&mdash;that of the Nagai-Tof War. During this time, the man known as Knife had been apprehended, along with with members of his species, who had been identified as the Nagai. Proceeding this event, Lando was present during a meeting of the leaders of the Alliance who were discussing the various ways that this war could, or would, affect the fragile state of the galaxy. Due to Knife have been taken into custody, Lando once again regained control of the Cobra.

With Chewbacca away on a vacation with family on Kashyyyk, and Leia preoccupied with meetings, Han found himself without a co-pilot for an upcoming mission to a former Imperial prison planet. At the insistence of Lando, Han accepted the Sullustan Nien Nunb to be a temporary companion. With Nien as his co-pilot, Han was briefed by Lando on what he had to do. Han eventually learned that his mission was to learn if the Imperials had been influencing the Metalsmith's Guild, a guild who was supplying the Alliance with ores and alloys.

However, near the end of his mission, Han encountered trouble with the Imperials, who had programmed the barge fleet Han was a part of, to pilot itself into a nearby sun. Not in possession of the codes needed to override the Imperial commands, Han began to believe that that the Falcon, his passengers, and the barge fleet was doomed. Nevertheless, at that moment, Lando arrived out of hyperspace the captain of a EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate, and latched onto the Falcon using the frigates tractor beam. Lando proceeded to tell Han that several of Han's passengers had been in possession of the override code, and that they had had Nein Nunb transmit to the Alliance frigate when it appeared out hyperspace. Knowing that Han was safely away from the Imperials, Lando advised him that Han's true mission all along had been to draw out the Imperials, and not just to gain intelligence. Lando believed that Han had been the perfect candidate to cause enough trouble to draw the Imperials out in the open.

Near-death experience on Godo
"Seriously&hellip;would you have started a war, just to save me&hellip;or were you bluffing?" "Lucky for everyone&hellip;we'll never know."

- Lando and Han, shortly after Lando's recovery

With Fenn Shysa and Bey as an allies, the leaders of the Alliance once again turned their focus back to helping member worlds who had experienced hardship and strife over the previous years. One such world was the planet of Godo, whose inhabitants resembled small children, both in stature and attitude. Over the course of several years, the natives of Godo, known as Godoan, had become afflicted by an unknown disease that had wrecked havoc across the populace. As a result, the Alliance sent several of their personal to Godo in an effort to ascertain the root of the disease&mdash;the Alliance party, so not to be infected by the sickness, had to be inoculated before setting foot on the planet. Among this initial party was Han Solo and Chewbacca, and the Alliance soon discovered that the Godoan disease stemmed from an enormous machine that the Godoan worshiped. The machine, itself, had actually been manufactured by an unknown person, or persons, to aid in keeping the Godoan alive when Godo had become unfit to support them anymore. Over the centuries, knowledge of the machine turned into a local religion in which the Godoan believed a "Goddess" lived in the machine, seen as a holy temple, and looked after the welfare of their people. Unbeknown to the Godoan, for the machine to operate properly it required a large number of integral cogs which resembled golden statues&mdash;two of which had been stolen, and ended up in the possession of Lando Calrissian through a card game.



Having acquired the knowledge that it was the missing statues that was causing the disease to continue on Godo, Han and the others returned to the Alliance base on Endor to speak with Lando. Surprised by what Han told him, Lando devised a plan to retrieve the two statues from those who possessed them and return them to the machine on Godo. Han and Luke opted to travel to the prison world which housed Lemo and Sando and speak with them about the location of the Minstrel; while Lando and Chewbacca were to seek out Drebble on Stenos in hopes of acquiring the Dancing Goddess.

While Han and Luke were busy tracking down the Minstrel, Lando and Chewbacca found themselves in dire straights in the streets of Stenos. Believing that Drebble had ordered them to be killed, the pair participated in a running firefight with a large group of Drebble's gang. Nevertheless, Lando expressed surprise when Drebble appeared and ordered his gang members to cease fire, explaining that Lando and Chewbacca were actually old friends of his from the Rebellion. Believing that Drebble had changed for the best, due to his new found stature brought upon by none other than Lando, Lando explained to Drebble why he and Chewbacca had sought him out. Though Drebble was visibly sad to give his "award" back to Lando, he was cheered when Lando told him that they were friends, and that he truly had earned the friendship of the Alliance. With the Dancing Goddess in their possession, Lando and Chewbacca hastily made their way back to Godo.

Arriving ahead of Lando, Han and Luke replaced the Minstrel within the machine&mdash;however, without Lando and the Dancing Goddess, the Godoans' sickness would continue to worsen. Just as the Fumiyo, a Godoan was acting as an interpreter, was close to death, Lando arrived with the Dancing Goddess and placed it within the machine. With both of the missing pieces now back in their original lodgings, Fumiyo immediately began to heal&mdash;as did the rest of the Godoan population. Believing that their mission had come to an end, Lando, Luke, Han, and Chewbacca boarded the Millennium Falcon, and took their position at the head of the Alliance fleet orbiting Godo. However, Lando soon began exhibiting the exact same symptoms that the Godoans' had shown when sick&mdash;Lando's sickness, though, had accelerated quicker than Han and the others had expected. According to Chewbacca, Lando, in his rush to get the statue back to the machine, had forgotten to get inoculated against the deadly disease. Believing that his friend was close to death, Han radioed back to Fumiyo and requested permission to transport Lando to the temple. Fumiyo, however, advised Han that the Godoans' had just sealed the temple against all "alien" persons in an attempt to dissuade the theft of anymore statues. Outraged that they would condemn to death the man who just saved their entire populace, Han warned Fumiyo that he had at his disposal enough Alliance firepower to level the entire planet if they did not help Lando. With the support of various other Alliance military persons present, such as Wedge Antilles, Han gave Fumiyo ten seconds to accept his deal. To the relief of Admiral Ackbar, Fumiyo conceded and allowed Han to bring Lando back to the temple, where he was instantly healed.

New missions and failed businesses
Lando helped stop Savan's planned coup of Black Sun&mdash;the Falleen hoped that by capturing Guri, Xizor's old bodyguard, she could learn of secrets that would strengthen her position in the organization. Lando and his usual crew of Rebels&mdash;Luke, Han, Leia, R2-D2, C-3PO and Chewbacca&mdash;set out to stop Savan, but Guri managed to defeat the crimelord by herself.

He was often placed in charge of the fleet during the Nagai-Tof War, during such engagements as the second battle of Endor and the climactic battle of Saijo. Later, Calrissian was an important part of SPIN, using his history with the galactic criminal class to advise the New Republic on a number of matters, particularly during the rise of Trioculus. During that time, he lost control of Cloud City to Jabba the Hutt's father, Zorba, in a game of sabacc. Calrissian tried his hand at several businesses, including administrating Hologram Fun World. During his tenure as administrator, Lando ran into trouble when Han and Leia Organa Solo decided to elope there at the same time as Zorba the Hutt decided to attack his competitor; fortunately, Lando was able to repel the attack. He made a small fortune from the space station before moving on to new ventures following the dissolution of SPIN.

Upon receiving a call for help from Han Solo and Chewbacca who were on Kashyyyk battling the Empire, Lando and Luke Skywalker journeyed to help their friends and the Wookiees. Upon reaching the Wookiee homeworld, Lando found the Falcon on the forest floor abandoned. Reclaiming the vintage freighter, he, Luke and a group of X-wing pilots helped Solo, Chewie, and the Wookiees take Avatar Orbital Platform and rescue Attichitcuk.

In c. 5 ABY, Lando was put in charge of a rescue mission for the New Republic. Several Republic ships had been captured by pirates, and the Republic hoped to "send a thief to catch a thief," as Lando himself put it. He assembled a large team, Lando's Commandos, consisting of spacers, bounty hunters, smugglers, and the former Imperial officer Von Asch. Guided by another former Imperial named Kine, Lando and his team assaulted the pirate base, and were eventually able to defeat them. However, Von Asch was killed while saving Isolde Siro, a spacer, from Kine, who was a spy still working for the Empire. Upon returning to base Lando was commended for his successful operation.

Nomad City


He had some success with mining through his mobile Nomad City&mdash;a walking mining platform&mdash;on the super hot world of Nkllon. However, Nkllon was raided in an Imperial raid led by Grand Admiral Thrawn in 9 ABY to steal his mole miners, despite the best efforts of Luke, Han, Leia, and his own defense forces. While his three friends were at Nkllon, Lando helped identify an old beckon-call for Luke and had Threepio reprogrammed to sound like Leia as part of a decoy operation. Then Lando and Han went to Abregado-rae to meet a representative of Talon Karrde's, Fynn Torve. Torve sent them to Myrkr to meet with Karrde. While on Myrkr, Lando and Han became the first members of the New Republic to see Thrawn in person when they spied on him with a pair of electrobinoculars. Lando also deduced that Karrde had been holding Luke Skywalker hostage and participated in the subsequent ambush of the Imperial forces on Myrkr that rescued Luke. He had a tense moment with one of Karrde's associates, Aves, who was helping with the ambush, over the timing of the ambush and was wounded in the attack.

Thrawn would use the mole-miners he stole from Lando in attempt to steal a large number of Rebel capital ships at Sluis Van. Returning to Sluis Van from Myrkr, Lando, Han, and Luke were caught up in the middle of the battle. After realizing what the Imperial admiral was planning, Lando used his command codes to drive the mole-miners into the ships to cripple them in order to prevent the ships' theft. At Sluis Van, Lando also confronted starship thief Niles Ferrier, preventing him from making his own grab at New Republic ships.

After this, Lando and Han Solo, operating from a lead garnered at New Cov while looking for evidence of Borsk Fey'lya's private operations, made contact with and recruited Garm Bel Iblis for the New Republic after Bel Iblis's private Dreadnaughts helped save them from an Imperial attack. While at Bel Iblis's base, Lando deduced that the ships that Bel Iblis was using had been part of the Katana fleet. In the race to reach the lost Dreadnaught fleet, Lando and Han searched out a contact named Hoffner on the Coral Vanda, but were ultimately unsuccessful in reaching him before the Empire did. Lando journeyed with a small team to the remaining ships, participating in the Battle for the Katana fleet from the Katana itself, fending off Imperial boarding teams.

Lando returned to Nkllon, but before he achieved much more progress he was attacked again by Thrawn's forces, who stole his entire stockpile of metals and severely damaged his complex. He and his miners were evacuated by Garm Bel Iblis, but the Nkllon complex was doomed. Returning to Coruscant, Lando was at the Imperial Palace when an Imperial Intelligence team penetrated the palace, intending to capture Leia Organa Solo's twins. With the help of Mara Jade and Garm Bel Iblis, Lando and the Palace Security defeated the intelligence team.

At the end of Thrawn's campaign, Lando played an important role in the destruction of the Imperial stronghold at Mount Tantiss on Wayland. In this mission, Calrissian would accompany Talon Karrde, Princess Leia, and a pair of vornskrs on the Wild Karrde to rescue Han, Luke, Mara Jade, R2-D2 and C-3PO. With the help of Chewbacca, Lando rigged an arrhythmic resonance scheme that destroyed the complex, ending the threat of the clones grown there.

Palpatine reborn
"I guess I just wasn't cut out to command Star Destroyers!"

- Lando



During the resurrection of Emperor Palpatine in 10 ABY, Lando accompanied Luke Skywalker on a hit-and-run mission to weaken the Imperial forces battling each other in the battle of Coruscant. They were shot down, however, and were stranded in the midst of battle. Luckily, Han Solo and Leia Organa rushed to save them, only to find Luke unwilling to leave the planet. As a Force Storm attacked the party, Lando and the others escaped in the Millennium Falcon, leaving Luke behind to battle the storm. Soon thereafter Lando and Wedge commanded the Rebel fleet from the Star Destroyer Emancipator during the Battle of Mon Calamari against the Imperial World Devastators. Unbeknownst to Lando, Luke had fallen to the dark side of the Force, and was in fact commanding the Imperial fleet. The Rebels were near defeat when the Falcon arrived, carrying amongst others R2-D2, who had acquired a code to shut the World Devastators down. As the gargantuan superweapons collapsed, the Rebel Alliance defeated the remaining Imperial troops.

Lando informed the New Republic leaders about a cargo of large X-1 Viper war droids being shipped from Balmorra to the Imperial headquarters on Byss. Lando led a group that included Wedge Antilles and New Republic commandos that hijacked a shipment of the new Vipers and hid in their cramped innards. After the Vipers were unloaded on Byss, the commandos activated them and advanced on the Emperor's Citadel. They were able to defeat the Imperial forces until huge mutant chrysalides were released. The New Republic force fled the droids to seek cover before the Vipers were defeated. Lando, Wedge and other surviving New Republic personnel were evacuated by Salla Zend and her friends as a chrysalide closed in.

Later Lando, Wedge Antilles, Kam Solusar, and R2-D2 would infiltrate Palpatine's flagship, Eclipse II over Onderon, in an attempt to destroy the massive vessel after boarding it using the Millennium Falcon. While dozens of Rebel starfighters launched a diversionary assault, the Rebel team successfully took control of the helm and R2-D2 jumped the ship back to the exact coordinates of Palpatine's Galaxy Gun orbiting Byss. As the two massive weapons collided, Lando and the other Rebels extracted under fire from the Imperial crew as the Galaxy Gun fired a final projectile into Byss, setting off an unstoppable nucleonic reaction. As Lando and rest of the Falcon's crew flew away, Byss was destroyed, as were the two most dangerous superweapons to date.

Kessel investment
Later in 11 ABY, Lando would help Luke Skywalker search for Force-sensitives to study at Luke's Jedi Academy. During the search, Lando, along with C-3PO and R2-D2, was led to the Umgullian Blob races in search of a possible Force-sensitive. The candidate, Dack, turned out to be a cheater on the blob races, and Lando helped expose him. Rather than suffer the usual death penalty for cheating, Dack was returned to his wife Mistal, the Duchess of Dargul. As a reward for Lando's help in returning her husband, Mistal gave him one million credits, which Lando later planned to invest in the spice mines of Kessel.

Lando was later called in, along with Luke Skywalker, to help find Han and Chewbacca after they disappeared following a diplomatic mission to Kessel. They posed as businessmen seeking to invest in the mines. With this cover, they investigated the moon and its administrator, Moruth Doole. Finding the Millennium Falcon in Doole's private fleet, the two ersatz "businessmen" took the ship and fled. They were pursued by the rest of Doole's ships and fled towards the Maw, when the Sun Crusher—piloted by Han, Chewbacca, and Kyp Durron—burst out, followed by Admiral Daala's fleet. The New Republic heroes escaped in the confused brawl that ensued between Doole's and Daala's ships. During this time, he gained control of the spice mines on Kessel, partnering with Mara Jade. At the same time, Lando and Han also traded control of the Falcon three more times over games of sabacc. In the third and final game they played, Lando won the prized ship from Han, but gave it to him forever in order to impress Mara Jade, who he was smitten with. Lando and Jade had just finished taking over the mines when the Death Star prototype blew up Kessel's moon. Leading the smugglers and pirates, Lando and Mara attacked the Death Star prototype, but were unable to keep it from re-entering the Maw Cluster, where it was eventually destroyed. Despite this setback, they continued mining operations and Calrissian installed Nien Nunb as the mines' new administrator.

Run-in with the Imperial Remnant
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm sitting in a cell. How about you?"

- Lando Calrissian to Kyle Katarn



In 13 ABY, Cloud City was overrun with mercenaries, criminals and thugs. Lando took it upon himself to track down their leader. After a few card games and bar fights, he was led to Reelo Baruk on Nar Shaddaa. The moment he heard of a Remnant agent called Desann, Lando was captured and placed into one of Reelo's holding cells. Fortunately for Lando, Kyle Katarn was also looking for Reelo Baruk. He freed Lando Calrissian from Baruk's hold and eventually Katarn and Calrissian managed to find the Lady Luck and refuel her using pipelines. When they were about to make their escape from Nar Shaddaa, Reelo attacked them with a handful of mercenaries. The criminal used a gun platform to hit the ship while his thugs boarded the ship, but Katarn leaped into the laser turret of the Lady Luck and shot down the gangster. Lando, finally able to call for help, signaled the New Republic with the news that the Imperial Remnant were on Cloud City. Lando dropped Kyle off at the lower levels while he organized the security forces to drive Reelo's remaining thugs and the Remnant off.

In the same year, an outbreak of the Death Seed plague and the disappearance of Chief of State Organa Solo caused Han Solo to recruit Lando to accompany him on a desperate search to find Leia. Lando and Han, onboard the Falcon were searching on Damonite Yors B when they discovered the remains of a New Republic warship, with a few badly injured survivors. Taking the survivors back to nearby Nim Drovis, they unloaded them to the nearest medical facility. While outside the ship, Han got caught up in inter-tribal warfare, but made it back to the Falcon, where Lando and Chewbacca were waiting. Leaving Nim Drovis, they finally managed to wrangle a small New Republic fleet to go to Nam Chorios to rescue Leia, with the aid of a forged holo of her. Arriving over the planet, Lando and Han participated in a frantic battle against Loronar Corporation's CCIR Needles and Moff Getelles's fleet, though victory was only achieved after Admiral Daala, thought to be dead, attacked Getelles and Luke Skywalker shut down the Needles.

Black Fleet Crisis


In 16, Lando found himself with nothing to occupy his time; Mara Jade had resisted all of his advances and he was still fairly flush with money from his reward from Duchess Mistal. With no better diversion, Lando infiltrated the Alpha Blue headquarters to meet with his friend Admiral Hiram Drayson to ask him for a challenging task. Drayson agreed to his request and freshly reactivated Calrissian's rank as a general. Drayson showed him images of the mysterious Teljkon Vagabond, a large, powerful, and entirely mysterious vessel. New Republic Intelligence assets had been trailing the vessel for some time, and Drayson wanted Lando to accompany a team commanded by Colonel Pakkpekatt to board the vessel in an attempt to determine what it was and its intention. Lando readily agreed and began preparing for his trip.

Journeying to Yavin Four, Lando convinced R2-D2 and C-3PO to come with them, claiming that Luke Skywalker had let him borrow their services. In fact, Luke had done nothing of the sort, but Lando did not reveal that detail to either the droids or Streen, the Jedi who was responsible for them. Departing Yavin Four, Lando next took the Lady Luck to Bespin, where he was able to persuade the new administrator of Cloud City, Lobot, to accompany his expedition, and with surprising ease. All Lobot required in exchange for his assistance was the various objects and furnishings that Lando had left in the administrator's office and never retrieved. Lando agreed and Lobot joined Lando's team.

At the rendezvous point, Lando flew the Lady Luck to meet up with the other six vessels of the task force, led by the Belarus-class cruiser Glorious. After docking the Lady Luck with the Glorious, Lando met Colonel Pakkpekatt and quickly established that he and his party would have an active role in mission, preventing Pakkpekatt from relegating him to the role of observer.

When the Glorious and its escort first approached the unknown vessel in the Gmar Askilon system, Lando was initially annoyed at Pakkpekatt's cautious approach, as twenty-two days passed without their team attempting to make contact with the vessel. Eventually, an unmanned ferret was sent in closer to the vagabond to investigate. As it did so, the vagabond sent out a melodic communication pulse and then jumped to hyperspace after it received no response. Lando asked Threepio to analyze the transmission, but while the sound was similar to one that had been recorded as coming from the vagabond earlier, it did not exist within the protocol droid's databases, nor any other. Thanks to an interdiction field established by Pakkpekatt, the vagabond did not jump a great distance, and while the fleet closed to their usual following distances, Lando and Pakkpekatt disagreed over the best way to approach the vessel. Pakkpekatt sought to launch boarding teams to investigate the alien craft, while Lando felt that more time and caution was needed before approaching the vagabond.

Lando and his team were able to conjecture that the ship was of Qella origin, and that its communications pulse was part of the Qellan genetic code. Retrieving the rest of the code from a data archive, Lando felt that his plan was far superior to that of Pakkpekatt. With time until the boarding parties were launched, Lando detached the Lady Luck from the Glorious without permission, bringing it in close to the alien vessel. With Pakkpekatt unwilling to fire weapons or use a tractor beam in the vicinity of the vagabond, Lando was able to transmit the rest of the Qellan genetic sequence to the vessel, which responded by placing a secondary shield around the Lady Luck, protecting it from the Glorious 's tractor beam.

Lando, Lobot, R2-D2, and C-3PO, now isolated from the rest of the New Republic task force, were able to dock with the Qellan ship. After suiting up against the atmosphere, Lando entered, followed by the droids. In order to gain access to the rest of the ship, Lobot provided Artoo with a set of perceptual parameters that would display the interior from the viewpoint of a genetic relative of the Qella. The result was a handle that Lando degloved and touched. Immediately following this, the Qellan ship sliced free of the Lady Luck, destroyed an interdiction picket, and jumped to hyperspace.

Trapped inside the ship, Lando and his party used a cutting blaster to gain entry in another part of the mysterious vagabond. The ship, detecting the breach, dropped out of hyperspace and attempted to vent them, but Lando was narrowly able to scramble through the hole that they had cut before the ship's self-sealing bulkheads repaired the breach, protecting them from decompression. They attempted to explore the vessel, but the featureless corridors and lack of gravity, the constantly changing interior walls, random arrangement of the ship, and dynamic external length of the vagabond made for slow going. When the ship finally reverted to realspace, Lando and his party found a sort of control panel. However, Threepio touched it inadvertently and received a significant electric jolt that rendered the protocol droid inoperable. Lando quickly realized that they had returned to realspace and attached a limpet to the vessel's outer hull while Artoo attempted to repair C-3PO. Rejoining the others, the party moved out of the conduits, which they realized were linked to the weapons systems and thus not a safe place to be.

Recalling that it had been a touch of Lando's hand that had first activated the ship, Lando and Lobot proceeded to remove their suit gloves and touch the wall surfaces, which immediately reformed into various constructions and even a doorway. Exploring the resulting chambers that opened up when certain surfaces were touched, Lando discovered that the interior of the ship had been set up to display Qellan history lessons. Lando also discovered that the ship was alive; a living museum of the Qellan people and it had adjusted its atmosphere to suit the needs of its human visitors. However, they were still in deep space and completely isolated from Pakkpekatt's fleet.

Their period of discovery and exploration was interrupted by an Imperial frigate, which attacked the vagabond with an ion cannon battery. The vagabond returned fire, easily destroying the Imperial vessel, before fleeing into hyperspace, but Lando's limpet had been fried by the ion cannon barrage.

Almanian crisis
"Great rescue. Excellent rescue. In fact, the best rescue I've ever experienced."

- Lando Calrissian speaking sarcastically to Han Solo after Han's rescue attempt of him from Nandreeson went awry

During the Almanian Crisis in 17 ABY, Lando had just dropped off Mara Jade, whom he was still somewhat affiliated with, so she could run an errand with Talon Karrde in the Minos Cluster. On his way back, he encountered a derelict freighter, the Spicy Lady, normally piloted by Jarril. Linking his own craft to the Spicy Lady's holocams, he found that Jarril had been killed by a blaster shot at close range, apparently by stormtroopers, as a stormtrooper helmet was floating in the ship also. However, he also found evidence that Han had possibly known about the bombing on the Senate Hall that had not long before rocked Coruscant.

Lando immediately went to Chief of State Leia Organa Solo's residence on Coruscant where he finally managed to get through to Leia, who was still recovering from the bombing. Lando hoped to find Han on Coruscant, but the Corellian had gone to Smuggler's Run in search of information. Lando's sense of urgency was temporarily deflated by that news, as Nandreeson&mdash;whom Lando had once stolen weapons from twenty years earlier&mdash;was still alive and nursing both a bitter hatred and a bounty on Calrissian's head, and his lair was in Smuggler's Run. However, Lando put aside his fear of Nandreeson to go try and save Han, as he believed the message in Jarril's ship meant that Han might be targeted.

As Lando approached the run, he faked damage to the Lady Luck after sending a message to Mara in case of his disappearance in order to gain access to the Run. Lando arrived on Skip 1, where he was met by Sinewy Ana Blue, who warned him that Nandreeson was probably aware of his presence. His former associates on Smuggler's Run were also less than welcoming, treating him with open suspicion, even as he tried to discreetly find out what Han had been up to without revealing his purpose to the smugglers. Unfortunately, a group of Rek bounty hunters&mdash;at least thirty&mdash;arrived with weapons and captured him for transport to Nandreeson on Skip 6. Lando had no chance to put up a fight and the smugglers, including Ana Blue, Zeen Afit, and Kid DXo'ln made no move to protect him.

The Reks conducted him to Skip 6 and unceremoniously threw him into a slime pool to await Nandreeson's twenty years of stored up retribution. Nandreeson and his Glottalphib henchmen kept him in the pool, where he desperately treaded water in an attempt to stay alive, though Nandreeson intended for him to drown after becoming too exhausted to stay awake. The Glottalphib also refused any offers from Lando to bargain for his life and Lando forced himself to stay afloat as he was taunted and tormented by his captor.

Fortunately, Han&mdash;who was free and unharmed&mdash;found out about Lando's presence when he spotted a group of smugglers stripping the Lady Luck. Han recruited a gang of reluctant smugglers, including Blue, Wynni, Kid, and Zeen to help him rescue Calrissian, but Kid, Zeen, and Wynni betrayed him when they arrived at Nandreeson's slime pool, turning their weapons on Solo, as Nandreeson had hired them to help capture Han in an extension of his revenge against Lando. Lando, for his part, was unsurprised by Nandreeson's plan and threw several sarcastic comments at Han for his lack of foresight. A brawl broke out between Nandreeson's goons and hirelings and Han's diminished rescue party, and Lando began wrestling with Kid. With Han's help, he defeated Kid, then took his blaster and fired a shot into the ceiling of the cave, which was lined with watumba bats. The aggravated bats, natural predators of Glottalphibs, swooped down as Lando, Han, and Chewie made their escape. Before they could climb out of the slime pool, Nandreeson dove into the pool and attempted to kill Lando, but Han fought off the crime lord while Chewie dispatched him with a bowcaster quarrel. Lando, Chewie, Han, and Ana Blue then made their escape on Nandreeson's ship back to Skip One.

There, Han and Lando reclaimed their ships, though Lando was outraged by the damage done to his ship. As they were repairing the Lady Luck, a number of droids that had been stolen from various New Republic sources exploded, as they had been built as part of a plan to sabotage droids and computers across the New Republic. The droids had been stolen by various smugglers and now their confiscation came back to haunt them when their illicitly acquired property killed and maimed many of them. Han and Lando, despite the fact that many of the denizens of Smuggler's Run had betrayed them to the point that Blue had lured them here so the mastermind behind the plot could use Han to get at Leia and Luke, opened up their vessels to ferry the injured to Wrea, the nearest inhabited world with the medical capacity to treat the numerous casualties.

Lando soon after received a distress call from C-3PO on Telti and he brought the Lady Luck to pick up Threepio, R2-D2, and Cole Fardreamer, a mechanic who with the droids had helped stop the factory that had been producing the explosive-packed droids by deactivating all the detonators across the galaxy before they could be activated. After this incident, Lando sold the Kessel mines to Nien Numb, taking up other ventures instead.

First Corellian Insurrection
As of 18 ABY, Lando used his business sense for more altruistic purposes when he created Dometown—safe, affordable subterranean housing on Coruscant. That same year, with the reluctant help of Luke Skywalker, Lando set up a series of visits with wealthy women in order to find one to marry. One of them was Karia Ver Seryan of Leria Kerlsil, a "life-bearer" (or "life-witch"), who had the power to give men very good health for a time—usually 3-5 years—with the tradeoff that they would die as soon as the period ended. Lando almost unknowingly bound himself to the life-witch when R2-D2 and C-3PO arrived and explained the truth to Lando. Rather shaken, Lando continued his search for a prospective bride, but his next prospect turned out to already be married. To forestall any further "surprises", Lando made a holocomm call to his next prospect: Tendra Risant of Sacorria. Upon meeting her, Lando was very impressed and definitely wanted to deepen the relationship, although he was surprised to find he liked her for more than just money. However, the governing Sacorrian Triad had made it illegal for a Sacorrian to marry an offworlder. The Triad chased Luke and Lando off the planet, but not before Lando was able to provide Tendra with a radionics communication device.

Luke and Lando returned to Coruscant with the disturbing news of the Corellian interdiction field. The two would return to the Corellian system on board the Bakuran war fleet dispatched to find out what was happening in the system. Approaching Centerpoint Station, Lando, Luke, R2-D2, C-3PO, Gaeriel Captison, and Belindi Kalenda boarded the massive structure in an attempt to figure out why it was destroying stars. Upon reaching the center of the station, once known as Hollowtown, they realized that the whole area was heating up and would soon be lethal to Humans. Lando's toxic air training came in handy as he was the first one to reach the elevator car they would use to escape the increasingly hot and toxic atmosphere.

Lando would later rescue Tendra, who was single-handedly providing the New Republic and the Bakuran fleet with intelligence on the Triad fleet from her ship Gentleman Caller. She was code named "Source T" by intelligence operatives. They escaped the ensuing battle unscathed and spent more time together on Selonia, and Lando, who had fallen deeply in love with Tendra, asked her to marry him, and she agreed.

Caamas Document Crisis


Following his subsequent marriage to Tendra, Lando opened an underwater mining/tourist attraction on Varn, but had difficulty finding ways to protect his shipments from pirates. Lando, while on Bothawui, gave Diamala Senator Porolo Miatamia a ride back to his homeworld after he was cut off from his ship, hoping to discuss the possibility of Diamalan protection for his mining shipments. En route, they were interdicted by the Empire and the Lady Luck was brought onboard an Imperial Star Destroyer, where Grand Admiral Thrawn reappeared to them. Thrawn, after a short discussion, released them with an offer to the New Republic to let Thrawn investigate the brewing Caamas Document crisis. Lando took this report back to the New Republic, which alarmed the government greatly.

Lando served the New Republic during the Caamas Document crisis in several ways, going with Han Solo, Lobot, and the Verpine slicer Moegid on a mission to the Imperial Remnant's capital Bastion in an effort to retrieve the document. Lando was reluctant to go, but he was aware of the potential ramifications of a galactic civil war and a resurgent Empire. They were able to reach the Imperial capital of Bastion, but were unable to find the file. When they were discovered, Calrissian, Solo, and Lobot evaded local security officers in an attempt to reach Moegid and their ship. Lando caused a distraction by firing a slug thrower into the ceiling of a crowded building, and, evading pursuit, Han, Lobot, and Lando arrived back at the spaceport only to find Thrawn and a large cordon of stormtroopers waiting for them. Thrawn gave them a copy of the Caamas Document and allowed them to leave, astonishing both Han and Lando. However, they would later find the Caamas Document given to them by Thrawn was a fake. They arrived back at Bothawui only to find that warships on both sides of the issue had drawn battle lines and a full scale battle was imminent. Lando was onboard a Diamala warship when the Second Battle of Bothawui started and was instrumental in convincing Senator Miatamia to investigate an anomaly near a comet, which was actually a cloaked Imperial Star Destroyer. Following the discovery of three cloaked Star Destroyers, Lando led the suddenly united fleet against the Imperials at the request of Ponc Gavrisom and defeated them.

GemDiver Station
In 23 ABY, Lando opened a Corusca gem mining station over Yavin, known as GemDiver Station. The station was attacked by the Second Imperium, who kidnapped the Solo twins and Lowbacca while they were taking a tour of the station. Despite Lando's best attempts, the Second Imperium kidnappers, with their captives in tow, got away. Feeling bad about what happened, Lando lent the blockade runner Off Chance to Luke Skywalker, so that the Jedi Master could find the culprits.

Using income from his profitable GemDiver venture, Lando opened the SkyCenter Galleria on Bespin. He later sold the Galleria in exchange for a controlling interest of two Outer Rim planets: Dubrillion and Destrillion.

Early efforts


With Tendra, Lando ran a mining operation on Dubrillion and Destrillion. At the beginning of the Yuuzhan Vong War, Lando asked Han and Chewbacca to make a supply run to Sernpidal, which resulted in the Wookiee's death. Lando felt extreme guilt because of this, and made sure he did all he could to stop the invading Yuuzhan Vong. Unfortunately, as the Yuuzhan Vong invasion swelled in scope and magnitude, he was forced to evacuate Dubrillion, sending the refugees to Dantooine, though that planet soon also fell under Yuuzhan Vong attack. He oversaw the construction of Shelter base, a space station hidden deep inside the Maw, which housed Jedi children and apprentices. He was also responsible for establishing Tendrando Arms, which manufactured deadly YVH 1 droids that proved instrumental in fighting the Yuuzhan Vong. During a demonstration of his new droids to various New Republic officials, including Chief of State Borsk Fey'lya, General Garm Bel Iblis, and General Wedge Antilles, several Yuuhzan Vong infiltrators launched an attack. While Lando's YVH droid tried to stop them, its weapons were not fully equipped and was unable to do so. This "failure" gave Lando some initial difficulty in marketing his droids to Defense Force members. When the Jedi decided to launch the Mission to Myrkr, Lando and Tendra posed as Yuuzhan Vong sympathizers and journeyed to Talfaglio to deliver the seventeen Jedi, including all three of the Solo children, to the Yuuzhan Vong. The strike team was delivered without a hitch, and went on to continue their mission with the aid of two YVH droids. Lando would later feel considerable guilt for helping deliver many of the Jedi, including Leia's son Anakin, to their deaths on this mission.

Fall of Coruscant
Returning to Coruscant, Lando continued to purvey his droids to the New Republic, giving one to the Solos. When Leia felt the disturbance in the Force caused by her son Anakin's death on Myrkr, and then Han realized what had happened, Lando helped them both through their grief. As Coruscant came under attack by the Yuuzhan Vong, Lando was on board the Orbital Defense Headquarters and advised the commander, General Ba'tra, to deactivate the orbital minefields and allow the Yuuzhan Vong, preceded by captured refugee ships, through the minefield into the planetary shields. Ba'tra, recognizing Lando's tactic, reactivated his General's commission and Lando implemented the order. As more Yuuzhan Vong ships followed the refugee ships and advance units, Lando reactivated the mines, sowing chaos and destruction into the assault wave. However, his efforts were ultimately in vain and Lando and General Ba'tra evacuated in the Lady Luck. From there, they received word that treacherous Senator Viqi Shesh's star yacht Byrt was fleeing the besieged planet with a kidnapped Ben Skywalker and C-3PO. Lando, through use of a clever Bothan runaway gambit, was able to approach the Byrt and attach onto it. Sending YVH droids in first, Lando and Ba'tra effectively neutralized Shesh and the other escorts and rescued Ben and C-3PO, though Shesh did escape. Retrieving the young Skywalker, Lando sent a triumphant message informing Ben's parents, aunt, and uncle of his rescue, much to their relief. However, as Coruscant was rapidly being overrun by the Vong, Lando, too, withdrew from the battle.

Following the fall of Coruscant, Lando served with distinction in the Second Battle of Borleias when he, along with some New Republic engineers and YVH droids, successfully destroyed a Yuuzhan Vong rakamat. Once the New Republic was established on Borleias, Calrissian, along with Jedi Knight Alema Rar and Rogue Squadron, participated in a trap against a Yuuzhan Vong warship that had been hunting refugee ships. Using sensor equipment developed by Danni Quee, Lando and Alema determined that the Yuuzhan Vong were hunting the ships through inside information after Danni's sensor revealed no tracking creatures. They also lured a Yuuzhan Vong boarding party in an ambush of YVH droids while Rogue Squadron dealt with the Vong frigate.

Lando would later help insert Luke Skywalker, Mara Jade, Tahiri Veila, and Wraith Squadron into occupied Coruscant, now known as Yuuzhan'tar. Calrissian felt that he needed to be more active in aiding the war effort, so he and a YVH droid piloted the patched-together transport Record Time over to Coruscant. Once in orbit, Calrissian jettisoned orbital insertion pods containing the infiltration team of Jedi and Wraiths and then escaped in a waiting B-wing starfighter, narrowly escaping death from the orbiting Vong ships. He then returned to Borleias, where the defenders had just repulsed a significant Yuuzhan Vong thrust, and had a celebration with his friends over their joint successes. Later, he aided Talon Karrde in "persuading" important Senators to elect Cal Omas, the pro-Jedi candidate, as Chief of State. Lando and Karrde would approach a supporter of the main opposition candidate, Fyor Rodan, and offer him supplies for their refugee constituents. The senators would often think that they were being bribed and responded in such a way as to incriminate themselves. Calrissian and Karrde recorded these conversations and were thus able to influence a number of senators to change their votes in favor of Omas.

The War's End
After Omas's election and the subsequent formation of the Galactic Alliance, Lando continued to serve against the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, sometimes partnered with the Smugglers' Alliance and almost always accompanied by his YVH 1 droids.

When Han, Leia, Kyp Durron, Wraw, and Meloque were investigating rumors that Caluula was being used as a staging area for an attack on Mon Calamari, they found themselves captured by the Yuuzhan Vong. It was Lando, Talon Karrde, Shada D'ukal and other smugglers who saved them from being sacrificed to a yammosk.

During the final phases of the Yuuzhan Vong War, from aboard the Lady Luck, he and Tendra used their advanced sensory equipment to relay information to the Galactic Alliance fleet during the Liberation of Coruscant, as well as to the Jedi helping to defend Zonama Sekot. After the battle, he and others, including Wedge Antilles, discussed the post-war balance of power over a friendly drink on Zonama Sekot's surface.

Confederation-Galactic Alliance War
By 40 ABY, Lando and Tendra were successful in their business endeavors, leading a life of luxury. Somewhere around this time he began to carry a cane, more as a symbol of aged taste than any actual need for it. His life also seemed to have become somewhat boring and uneventful, according to him. That would change after he was visited by Han and Leia Solo, who had requested his help after being exiled by both the Corellian rebels and the Galactic Alliance. He willingly paid the cost to repair the Millennium Falcon and while the Falcon was under repair he lent the Love Commander to Han and Leia, on the condition that they let him come with them, which they agreed. Lando, in disguise, served as the captain, which somewhat irritated Han, who posed as his navigator. After an eventful trip to Corellia, which consisted of a shoot out with the Corellian Defense Force in a cantina after meeting with Denjax Teppler and blasting their way away from Corellia with the aide of Wedge, Iella and Myri Antilles and Corran and Mirax Horn, they made their way to the Errant Venture and a meeting with Booster Terrik. Lando continued to work with his friends on the Star Destroyer to prevent a full-scale war between the Corellians and their allies and the Galactic Alliance. He had a run-in with Alema Rar while on the Errant Venture, tricking her and using his cane, secretly modified to emit electric bolts, to make good his escape; however, she was able to remove his memory of the encounter. After the encounter with Alema, Lando and Han went off on an errand until Han heard the news about Mara's death.

Later in the war, Tendra announced that she and Lando were expecting their first child. Lando left Kashyyyk to be with his expecting wife, but not before bequeathing the Love Commander to Han Solo for his own use.

Personality and traits


"Well, he seems very friendly."

- C-3PO

Throughout his life, Lando was both a gambler and businessman, crook and hero. This was in part reflected by his adventurous, risk-taking, and seemingly shallow nature. He was known for being a classy, dapper gentleman, with a sense of humor, fine fashion taste, and more culture than the typical smugglers and pirates seen in some of his haunts. Despite his proficiency with weapons, Lando much preferred to use a con or trick to deceive an adversary rather than fight them. Lando, for all his love of adventure, disliked complications and was fond of the "easy life." However, his adventurous, debonair exterior was augmented by his deep sense of loyalty. At times, such as his betrayal of Han Solo on Bespin, his business-like pragmatism would come into conflict with his sense of loyalty. As a result, he felt he "owed" Solo for the fate he had helped deal him and did many things to try and repay that. Lando, for all his love of prosperity and well-run businesses, surprised even himself when he fell in love with a woman he had planned to marry for money&mdash;Tendra Risant&mdash;despite his many previous flings with other women. Lando remained faithful to his wife throughout their marriage, even rejecting an attempt by Alema Rar at seduction, as his former carefree womanizing gave way to a stable relationship with Tendra.

Talents and abilities


Lando was a man of many talents, ranging from card-dealing to business to military tactics. He was fluent in 18 different languages, including 3 only used by droids and computers. As expected of a professional gambler, Lando was an excellent sabacc player, well versed in both tangible gambling knowledge such as rules and practices and the more intangible qualities of winning large amounts of money while losing enough to keep away suspicion and dealing cards. While not traditionally as much of a gunman as say, Han Solo, Lando was still proficient with personal weapons such as a stingbeam or blaster. Later, Lando learned how to fly from Solo, and became an excellent pilot in the Falcon in his own right. He was also known for his excellent business sense, having run and managed any number of both legitimate and illegitimate business interests across the galaxy. Lando was also quite proud of his charm on females, and was known to exercise it, particularly in his younger days, before he eventually fell in love with and married Tendra Risant. He was also an author; by the time of the Yuuzhan Vong War he had written and published two memoirs, A Toss of the Dice: This Gambler's Life and How to Succeed in Everything (22 ABY); this second memoir was a bestseller.

"Drebble"
"What an appalling performance!"

- Griggor Tower after talking to a disguised Lando.

Lando would often use the name "Drebble" as an alias during his search for Han Solo. The name was "borrowed" from an old acquaintance of Lando's; Barpotomous Drebble, a man he had severely beaten in sabacc at one point, launching a long feud between the two. After Drebble almost got Lando killed at Stenos, the Socorran started using the alias in hopes that people he conned would decide to look Barpotomous up. Ironically, Lando's efforts for the Rebel Alliance under the guise of "Drebble" caused the real Drebble to be hailed as a hero&mdash;the Alliance had no idea Lando used "Drebble" as an alias.

Development
Lando existed as several different entities in early drafts of The Empire Strikes Back:
 * In the first draft, Lando was known as Lando Kadar, a refugee from the Clone Wars making a living as a smuggler on Hoth.
 * A gambler and general store owner on the Wookiee homeworld (see also Saun Dann from the The Star Wars Holiday Special.)
 * The leader of a group of clones from the Clone Wars; his homeworld was to be filled with clones spread across 700 countries, each of which belonged to a specific clan.

Portrayal
Lando Calrissian was portrayed on-screen in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi by actor Billy Dee Williams, who reprised the role for the radio adaptation of The Empire Strikes Back, in the video game Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, and the audio dramatization of Dark Empire. However, Arye Gross provided the voice of Lando in the radio adaptation of Return of the Jedi. On June 9, 2005, at the American Film Institute's award ceremony for George Lucas, Williams recollected his experience as Lando, and light-heartedly described the character as a "super space-stud."

Obba Babatundé provided the voice for Lando in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader, and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike.
