Braxas was an infochant on the planet Solay. Confined to a wheelchair, Braxas was a member of the Asogian species. When the Galactic Empire subjugated Solay in 4 ABY, Braxas fled the planet with Luke Skywalker as his pilot. The price to get Skywalker on his side was to show him the hologram of the final battle of the Solay Civil War, revealing what killed Solay rebel leader Raggold—not an assassin, but suicide.
