Biography[]

Early life[]

"Right now, I got a freighter, a droid mechanic, and not much else."
―Platt Okeefe, Smuggler's Guide[1]

Platt Okeefe was a human female from the[1] Core Worlds[3] planet Brentaal IV,[1] who escaped slavery and became a famous smuggler, freedom fighter, and entrepreneur.[2] After she lost multiple ships due to her profession, such as the one she crashed on Tatooine while escaping from bounty hunters, Platt Okeefee purchased a YT-1300 light freighter. She heavily modified it and called it Last Chance.[2] She owned a droid mechanic and Ghtroc 720 was her sentimental fave.[1]

Smuggler's Guide[]

"I've never run with pirates, but I know smuggling biz well enough to know the secrets in this book are too valuable for just anybody. Look who's owned it before me! Cheaters, grifters, and lowlifes, not to mention Lando."
―Platt Okeefe, Smuggler's Guide[1]

Young Platt Okeefe

Okeefe once came in possession of the Smuggler's Guide and listed the best things to smuggle, reliable haulers, list of shadowports and list of potential clients that hired freelance smugglers. She was also musing about the possibility of writing her own guide, that she'd only share with people who knew their stuff, granting basic access to those who completed five Sisar Runs with advanced access requiring three Kessel Runs.[1]

Panna's Redwater moon[]

After being hired to deliver a shipment of Jovaninan gorefruit to a drop-point agent on Panna's Redwater moon, Platt noted in the Smuggler's Guide logbook that she felt good about the job because she had wished to revisit a chance parlor in the Offworlders' Block.[1]

Smuggler's adviser[]

"So far, everything I've written looks pretty good! There's definitely enough material for me to get started on a comprehensive guide of my own."
―Platt Okeefe, Smuggler's Guide[1]

Later, she lost the guide, her Herglic chronometer and 603 credits to Lando Calrissian in a pazaak game because of her weakness to Novanian grog. As Lando made off with the logbook, Okeefe shouted at him, accusing him of using dishonest measures to acquire his winnings. The two later made amends at the Far Orbit bathhouses.[1] After recovering from an injury inflicted on her by an Imperial officer, she published her own guide, known as Smuggler's Handbook,[2] inspired by the Maz Kanata's Smuggler's Guide.[1]

Platt Okeefe's signature

"There's a LOT out there that raw spacers don't know, and I hate to see anybody fail. There's too much pettiness in this business already."
―Platt Okeefe, Smuggler's Guide[1]

Platt Okeefe had light skin and blue eyes.[1] She became a famous smuggler, freedom fighter, and entrepreneur.[2] Platt jokingly called herself "smuggler extraordinaire" during her youth. She had a concern for her fellow smugglers, and was willing to share secrets of the smuggling trade both in the Maz Kanata's Smuggler's Guide,[1] and in her own Smuggler's Handbook.[2] However, she would only share it with people who knew their stuff.[1]
