―An entry in an artist's journal restored and expanded by the Graf Archive[2]

Biography[]

SabaccPlayer

Karjj played sabacc at the Lodge.

Karjj was a Crocin male who in[2] 10 BBY[3] was in large amounts of debt and a troubled marriage. This put him in a foul-tempered and distracted state that made him a welcome addition to a sabacc game being played in one of the back rooms of the Lodge, a saloon located in Fort Ypso on the planet Vandor.[4] He sat between the dealer,[5] Saucer Head,[6] and[5] the Nephran Therm Scissorpunch,[4] with other players including the humans Han Solo and Lando Calrissian. The table played the Corellian Spike variant of sabacc[4] and at one point, Karjj became so infuriated that he placed his hand of cards between his jaws and gnawed them into confetti.[5] He later left the table and his seat was taken by another human player.[5]

Karjj was mentioned and illustrated in an artist's journal, which was restored, expanded, and displayed by the Graf Archive[2] at some point after 34 ABY.[7]

Personality and traits[]

Karjj was an unlucky individual, which left him in a foul tempered and distracted state that meant he could be counted on to lose his money as quickly as he lost his temper.[4] Despite his frequent losses, Karjj maintained his love of the game. He had brown skin and yellow eyes.[2] He spoke Croci.[8]

Equipment[]

While at the Lodge, Karjj wore a brown fur-lined coat with a brown belt, black shirt, black pants, a brown scarf, and a pair of goggles. He also wore an oiled brown headwrap that kept his scales from drying out. He owned a starship that was considered a clunker.[4]
