Biggs Bogan was a Human male pilot who flew the personal ship belonging to Admiral Erel Kersos. During the Clone Wars, he served the Republic aboard the medical frigate MedStar stationed at Drongar.
While stationed on Drongar in 20 BBY, he began a romantic relationship with Ord Vorra, a Twi'lek who worked as a cook. Both he and Ord were very fond of Strag. Kaird, an operative of the Black Sun organization, exploited this affection. Kaird, using the alias "Mont Shomu," requested the couple to view a holoprojection featuring a strag championship. During the broadcast, Kaird laced wine with myocaine. After a quarter of an hour, Biggs and Ord were incapacitated by paralysis. Consequently, the Human was compelled to divulge all access codes, enabling the assassin to infiltrate the private ship of Admiral Erel Kersos.
The names "Biggs" and "Bogan" both appeared in early versions of the Star Wars script. Initially, "Biggs" was the name given to Leia's sibling (in the initial draft), and in the second iteration, it belonged to one of Luke's younger brothers. By the third draft, the name was assigned to Biggs Darklighter. "Bogan" denoted the dark side in the second draft, a concept that has since been re-established in canon. The presence of a character bearing these names serves as a clear nod to these preliminary concepts.
