The Lodge served as the rough-and-tumble saloon in Fort Ypso on the planet Vandor[1] that was owned by Tibbs Ospe.[2] It contained a gambling hall, droid-fighting arena, and hostel. A band comprised of a Nithorn singer and two humans also resided there. Adventurous scouts planned explorations at the bar, gamblers sought to reverse their fortunes at the sabacc table, and shadowed alcoves were perfect for conducting illicit business.[1]
Han Solo first met Lando Calrissian in the Lodge and they played a game of sabacc with a few other individuals. Among the spectators was Tam Posla.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Parts of the Lodge's design, including the droid-fighting pit, were based on unused concept art for Takodana Castle from Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens.[4]
