"He is one of our top mechanics. I think Chewbacca makes him nervous."

―Inaldra's Lieutenant, to a spacer

Jolka was a male Zabrak mechanic who lived during the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, he worked at Tansarii Point Station, a space station located above Ord Mantell, in the Bright Jewel system. In 1 ABY, Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO and a spacer arrived on the station aboard the Millennium Falcon. The Wookiee Chewbacca then requested Jolka to fix the droid R2-D2 that had been damaged during a firefight in an Imperial space station. Unfortunately, the mechanic was missing a power converter. As the Wookiee was getting impatient, the Zabrak became very nervous. He therefore tasked the spacer to destroy some malfunctioning droids on the lower level of Tansarii Point Station to get a power converter. The spacer eventually returned with an intact power converter and Jolka was able to fix R2-D2.
