Description: Barpotomous Drebble was a Human businessman who had a weakness for gambling and a furious temper. The owner of a tavern on the Hunter's World of Keyorin, Drebble accumulated enough wealth to live comfortably. At some point, Drebble came into contact with Lando Calrissian, an accomplished smuggler and skilled gambler. The encounter ended poorly for Drebble, and he swore vengeance on Calrissian. Drebble clashed with Calrissian several times over the following years, including an attempt to interfere in Calrissian's card game with the Baron Administrator of Cloud City, Dominic Raynor. Drebble's meddling indirectly resulted in Calrissian winning control of the Cloud City resort from Raynor. In another encounter, Drebble nearly captured Calrissian and his friend, Luke Skywalker, on the planet Stenos, but Drebble's employees were unable to prevent the two from escaping.
Calrissian, for his part, decided to get back at Drebble by using his name as an alias whenever he was involved in a dangerous mission for the Rebellion. Calrissian hoped that this gesture would lead any potential enemies encountered on these missions directly back to his nemesis; however, Calrissian's actions while masquerading as "Drebble" had the opposite effect, causing the Alliance to seek out Calrissian's nemesis and commend him for his bravery. As a result, a short time after the Battle of Endor, a confused Drebble found himself promoted to captain and declared a hero of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Drebble's newfound status as a hero led him to a leadership position on the planet Stenos. He controlled a substantial section of the Stenos capital and ruled it in the best interests of the Alliance of Free Planets, the interim government that preceded the New Republic.
Personality and traits
Barpotomous Drebble was a large man who enjoyed a wealthy lifestyle that his profitable business provided him. He had a distinct sense of style and displayed a long mohawk throughout his career, even when his hair had finally turned white. As a business man on Keyorin, he was concerned with being as comfortable as possible, wearing simple sandals and a long purple robe adorned with a heavy gold chain. Additionally, Drebble claimed that his teeth were the most expensive that credits could buy, indicating that he had had some dental work done. Drebble was easily offended, and found it hard to forgive transgressions against him. He also had a furious temper and was often seen yelling when in a particularly foul mood. However, for all his character flaws, Drebble proved himself a shrewd businessman, using his tavern to set himself up as the wealthiest being on Keyorin.
Drebble's attitude and his general feeling toward life and the people around him abruptly changed after his appointment to captain. He left his tavern on Keyorin and took to living up to his newfound status in his new home on Stenos. He found himself more in control of his temper and took responsibility for the citizens of the Stenos capital, eventually becoming leader of a large section of the city. With his optimistic outlook on life, Drebble's sense of style changed as well. He wore a full uniform complete with a cape, ammunition belt, and heavy boots.
Although he possessed a sense of style, Drebble was not a very apt fighter in hand-to-hand combat and was unable to earn the respect of his subordinates. He was not familiar with the controls of starships, such as the Cobra, being fully incapable of working the controls when he attempted to commandeer Calrissian's ship. However, Drebble could handle a blaster pistol, and he was a capable leader when confronted with violence, as seen when he attacked Lemo and Sanda's gang. These characteristics were built upon after he became part of the Rebel Alliance, and those that he ruled over were fanatically loyal to him, willing to kill or capture anyone who might cause him harm.
