- "Ever heard of a pluripleq? Fascinating little beast. Bioengineered. Only a few ever made. I stole one on Thannt."
- ―Cornelius Evazan, to Doctor Chelli Aphra
Thannt was a terrestrial astronomical object where a biofarm was based.[1] At some point between 0 BBY and around 1 ABY,[3] the notorious doctor and smuggler[4] Cornelius Evazan infiltrated the biofarm[1] and stole a pluripleq, a bioengineered creature with shape-shifting abilities which he used to pose as a shapeshifter named "Lopset Yas."[2] The vigilante Tam Posla, who was hunting Evazan, learned of the infiltration on Thannt but eventually lost the doctor's trail for a month. Posla concluded that his target was either dead or imprisoned; all the while Evazan was[1] under his pluripleq-induced identity[2] aboard the wreckage-prison Accresker Jail.[1]
