Gydio Lucone


Gydio Lucone was a completely unscrupulous moneylender.

Biography

During the era of the Galactic Civil War, Lucone was contacted by captain Elga Arbo, a pilot who specialized in making rapid deliveries. Arbo had purchased a customized Z-10 Seeker from Starfeld Industries, called the Redshift Runner, and sought a loan from Lucone to upgrade the hyperdrive. Lucone gave his consent.

Lucone intentionally wrote very harsh terms into the agreement so that, if Arbo missed a monthly payment, Lucone could seize the ship. Lucone was hoping for this outcome, as it would afford Lucone the opportunity to coerce Arbo into performing smuggle runs for him. However, Arbo consistently made her payments on time, and simultaneously built a reputation as a law-abiding pilot.

On one occasion, Arbo sought to make a payment three days beyond the agreed-upon date. Lucone tried to take possession of the ship. Arbo resisted, and a violent confrontation occurred. Arbo sustained significant injuries during the altercation, but she and Maceb Joodsen ultimately managed to flee aboard the Runner.

Furious, Lucone then placed a 20,000-credit bounty on the ship, ensuring that the information was widely known. Three months passed, and the bounty remained unclaimed.
