The Blackstar Pirates represented a band of pirates that held allegiance to the Invids. Located on Courkrus circa 11 ABY, this group of pirates were known to congregate at the Mynock Hole, a cantina that featured a safe, high-end sanctuary inaccessible to other Invids. Corran Horn, disguised as the "Ghost Jedi," infiltrated their secret base and staged a theatrical performance to instill fear within them. Although the Blackstars didn't leave Courkrus entirely as the Fastblasters did, their numbers significantly dwindled due to widespread abandonment after this event and the subsequent "Great Hutt Roast".
