Bok Askol

Bok Askol was a Pacithhip^[1] factotum^[3] and Podracer mechanic^[4] who was a visitor^[1] of the city Mos Espa on the planet Tatooine.^[5] At birth, the gene configuration of a Pacithhip usually indicated that they were to become either a farmer, an intellectual, or a warrior, but Askol's destiny eluded classification^[1] and became a mystery for many years.^[2]
