"Made a clean break with Bunji after the Cron scam, only to wind up in the decaying orbit of the galaxy's cheapest swindlers—the Briil Twins."
―Han Solo, in the Smuggler's Guide[1]

The Briil Twins were a group, whom Han Solo considered the galaxy's cheapests con artists.[1] Following a scam in the Cron Drift, between 10 BBY and 3 ABY,[2] Han Solo and Chewbacca worked with the Briil Twins smuggling hundred bottles of R'alla mineral water to the people of Rampa II.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

The Briil Twins were first mentioned in the 2018 canon reference book Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, written by Daniel Wallace.[1] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the Briil Twins were first mentioned in the 1979 novel Han Solo's Revenge, written by Brian Daley.[3]

Notes and references[]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide
  2. The entry in Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide that mentions 373-CR takes place after Han Solo has completed the Kessel Run, but before he encounters a bounty hunter on Ord Mantell, which is mentioned as having occurred prior to the Battle of Hoth in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide establishes that Solo completes the Kessel Run nine years after the Proclamation of the New Order, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 19 BBY, meaning Solo's Kessel Run must take place in 10 BBY. The Atlas also dates the Battle of Hoth to 3 ABY; therefore, the entry in the in-universe book Smuggler's Guide must have been written between 10 BBY and 3 ABY.
