Cobalt Blue/Papa Beedo

Papa Beedo claimed not to remember anything before waking up next to a bottle of Rodian ale well into his mid-life. Nonetheless, he seemed to be a powerful man with a quiet purpose. At first, few were sure what to make of the Ithorian. Despite little interest in monetary concerns, he fell into a plot to rob a Huttese Nar Shadda casino. Despite the catastrophic failure of that endeavor, Beedo maintained links to the smugglers Fabius Kane and Donovan, and the droid, IL-1D20.

Whatever intentions Beedo had in joining the other notorious criminals, he proved himself to be a deceptively powerful Force-user. He also has been heard to remark that the galaxy was sick and that he must help heal it.

Papa Beedo showed no love for the Empire. He almost joined a resurgent rebel force at the behest of Winter, but chose otherwise when Kane seemed not interested. However, things steered that way inevitably, as Beedo, Kane, Donovan, and the Ortolan, Spid Dövan, later joined the Syndicate: joining a de facto Outlaw's Rebellion.

After joining the Syndicate, Beedo assumed the identity of Cobalt Blue, a blue-skinned (through skin dye) Ithorian pop singer. With Kane and Donovan as his pilots and Dövan as his cook, he traveled in the luxury liner, Blue Streak, as a cover for their clandestine operations, not the least of which was the rescue of ex-Rebellion leader, Mon Mothma.

Tragically, this persona was cut off abruptbly, when Cobalt died aboard Center Point Station, just prior to The Corellian Disaster. Almost killed by the High Inquisitor Tremayne's lightsaber attack, he still would have died had Dövan not saved him from falling. Sadly, an enraged Kane was the one who accidentally dealt the fatal blow while trying to blast Tremayne.
