Gha Nachkt was a bloated, greedy Trandoshan salvage ship captain who plied the wreckage of the Clone Wars aboard his vessel, the Vulture's Claw, scavenging profit from the leavings of battle. A freelance opportunist rather than a true partisan, he took work for the Confederacy of Independent Systems, believing above all in the almighty credit. His notoriety rests on a single haul: recovering the astromech R2-D2, whose store of Galactic Republic intelligence made him valuable enough to sell to the Separatist commander General Grievous. That scheme set Nachkt against the droid's owner, Anakin Skywalker, and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano. Careful to honor his bargain yet fatally overreaching, Nachkt embodied the mercenary avarice that thrived in the war's margins.
