Tig Fromm, also known as Baby-Face Fromm and Junior Fromm, was an Annoo-dat gangster and, as the son of Sise Fromm, heir to the then-most-powerful crime family in the galaxy.

Tig ran the Fromm Gang's operation on Ingo where he developed the weapons satellite Trigon One as part of a plot to overthrow the other gangs. However, the interference of the Annoo Resistance led to the destruction of Trigon One and the downfall of the Fromm Gang. Tig, along with his father, was later turned over to rival crimelord Jabba Desilijic Tiure by the bounty hunter Boba Fett.

Biography
Tig became increasingly convinced that his father's methods and reliance on muscle power were outdated and that technology represented the future of the Fromm Gang. Establishing a secret base in the Vaj Desert on Ingo, Tig used droids to keep the base functioning and to provide security.

However, Tig's reliance on technology was known to backfire. On one occasion, droids assigned to protect his father malfunctioned, turning on Sise and handing him over to the authorities. Tig's reputation was further degraded when the attempted rescue of his father resulted in him breaking somebody else out and leaving Sise there.

Despite Sise's disliking of technology, by 15 BBY, Tig had persuaded his father to invest heavily in a covert project to build a powerful weapons satellite dubbed the Trigon One. Despite its relatively small size, Tig assured his father that it would have the firepower of something a thousand times its size. Using its orbital laser the Fromm's planned to move against the other gangs and secure their place as the dominant criminal organization in the Galactic Empire. Placed in charge of the project, Tig oversaw the construction at his secret base.

As the Trigon One neared completion, word of the Trigon One's development reached Demma Moll, leader of the Annoo Resistance, who dispatched her daughter, Kea, to investigate. Upon arriving, the young freedom fighter oversaw the speeder racers, Thall Joben and Jord Dusat, together with their droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, accidentally enter the restricted zone around Tig's base. With Kea's help the group were able to escape from the sentry droids which had moved to intercept the intruders.

Tig, together with his second in command, Vlix Oncard, feared that the location of the base might reach the other gang leaders and compromise the Trigon One project. Deciding that they needed to be silenced before they could talk, Tig dispatched a group of muscle droids to capture them. Jord was caught by the droids at the racers' speeder shop but Thall, working with Kea, was able to escape.

After being interrogated by Tig and Vlix, Jord was scheduled to be transfered to Sise Fromm's stronghold on Annoo but Thall, Kea and the droids were able to break into the base in a rescue attempt. Picking up Jord in their speeder, the White Witch, Thall and R2-D2 headed towards the exit and Tig sent droids to ambush them. However, C-3PO and Keal Moll had gained access to the security system and redirected them to a different area to allow their allies to escape the trap.

Tig tried again to stop their escape, ordering his droid cruisers outside to await them, disabling his sentry droids to prevent them attacking the cruisers. However, C-3PO was again able to use the security system to reactivate the sentry droids. As the two groups of droids opened fire on each other, the White Witch escaped.

Tig feared that their escape would lead to the other gangs finding out about the Trigon One but, as look would have it, as the group traveled to Boonta for the Boonta Speeder Race, a hyperdrive malfunction caused them to head to Annoo for repairs. The Fromm Gang's spies reported the group's presence on Annoo to Sise who vowed to deal with them himself.

Yet again, the young racers were able to escape an attack by the Fromm Gang and soon learned the whole truth about what the Fromms were planning from Demma Moll. Learning that Tig had come to Annoo to pick up his father for an inspection of the base on Ingo, they agreed to help destroy the Trigon One by sneaking aboard Tig's ship and gaining access to his base.

Thall, Kea and the droids successfully infiltrated Tig's ship and were able to gain access to the hangar where the final work was being completed on the Trigon One. Seeing the infiltrators, Tig ordered his forces to stop them but they were able to steal the Trigon One and escape. Believing that the Trigon One's weapons systems were still inactive, Tig dispatched droid starfighters to intercept. However, R2-D2 was able to activate the weapons systems and the fighters were destroyed as the Trigon One fled Annoo.

With the loss of the Trigon One, the future of the Fromm Gang seemed bleak. Knowing that the other gangs would unite against them, Tig suggested starting again somewhere else and building a replacement for the Trigon One. His father, however, blaming Tig for what had happened, insisted that he would operate alone in future.
