Avaro Sookcool, the owner of the Flip of The Credit Casino in Equator City on Rodia. He was an obese male Rodian that spoke basic but with a lisp. He first appeared in "Shadows of The Empire" when Princess Leia needed some Black Sun ties to help track down the frozen in carbonite Han Solo, Lando suggested that Leia visit Avaro.
Despite the fact that Greedo was his nephew, Avaro held no grudge against Han Solo stating that his nephew wasn't very bright. Avaro himself was a Black Sun underling that was not as ambitious as his fellow operatives. His lisp might fool people into thinking that he was dumber than he looks but it would be unwise to underestimate him since he is quite intelligent. He is the main coordinator of most of Black Sun's operations on planet. While he reports directly to Vigo Clezo, he also has an open channel to Crime Lord Xizor as well. His Casino while modest by Rodia's standards, is a major part of Black Sun's money laundering operation on planet.
Avaro's dealings unlike most of his colleagues required public relations skills with those that would like to deal with Black Sun. Avaro was skilled in both diplomacy and evasion. He comes off as pleasant and open but he is a shrewd businessman knowing the importance of information.
Avaro's presence on Rodia is outstanding not just cause of his influence but the fact that he is from Clan Tetsu. A Clan that Navik the Red nearly wiped out all together. Avaro's protection from Navik stems from his Black Sun affiliation. Navik was afraid of upsetting the criminal organization so he didn't dare touch Avaro.
