Name: Max Rebo

Tags: Support, Hutt Cartel
Relic Amplifier: Red ball jett organ

First appearing in Return of the Jedi, Max Rebo, real name Siiruulian Phantele, was an Ortolan and musician who formed the Max Rebo Band. As part of the band, Rebo would play the red ball jett organ and perform j.i.z.z-style music for Jabba the Hutt. After the death of Jabba, Rebo and his band were later seen performing at Garsa Fwip's Sanctuary in Mos Espa. Rebo had miraculously managed to survive both the destruction of Jabba's sail barge and the bombing of Fwip's Sanctuary.

In the PlayStation 1 version of The Phantom Menace video game, an Ortolan is seen performing at the 7-Gee Lounge inside the Mos Espa podracing arena and when provoked will throw grenades at Qui-Gon. Though unknown if this Ortolan musician is Max Rebo, the grenades could be one of Rebo's attacks.

An "Entertainer" faction could also be introduced harkening back to the Entertainer class of the MMO Star Wars Galaxies. Other potential characters which could be introduced as part of the Entertainer faction are Oola, Sy Snootles, and Arica (Mara Jade).

Discuss below the character and what his abilities could be.

  • Max Rebo was not a character I would have been thinking of, but he might actually be kind of a fun unit. Maybe one of his abilities could be to distract his enemies by playing his organ. Plus, it would be nice for the Hutt Cartel to have more characters that actually were in Jabba’s palace.
