A local Rodian gangster named Malkoi shared a mutual vendetta with Skrigatov, though, and arranged for N'Vaari to be kidnapped. Malkoi hoped to blackmail Skrigatov out of power and install a puppet governor.
They were both foiled when N'Vaari used her comprehensive training as an actress to impersonate a Twi'lek performer at the Starlight Theater located on Phyrstal Island in the resort city of Le Yer.
