Burellion Tiy was a Sullustan male who was in the service of the SoroSuub Corporation as a seller of starships, and he also held membership within the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Tiy worked for SoroSuub Corporation, traveling through the galaxy to trade in second-hand starships on their behalf. Because he felt the inhabitants of Sullust needed to oppose the Galactic Empire, Tiy became a member of the Rebel Alliance, utilizing his work to obtain and transmit military intelligence to them. On one occasion, Tiy sold a group of patrol vessels to the Empire; these ships were rigged to detect false electromagnetic signals similar to those of X-wings, tricking the Empire into wasting resources investigating an empty star system.
Tiy possessed a jovial and playful nature, with a fondness for practical jokes. He frequently amused himself by causing embarrassment to his customers, but his sharp business acumen ensured that SoroSuub never dismissed him for these antics. Tiy restricted his assistance to the Alliance to providing information, as he considered the transportation of passengers or illegal goods for them to be excessively risky. Tiy had a penchant for wearing flamboyant attire and had amassed a sizable assortment of sunglasses. He piloted the SoroSuub light transport known as Burellion's Deal and carried a QuickSnap 36T blaster carbine.
