"Divo's theory, updated years after the incident, was that Farwan & Glott, the original manufacturers of Kee's podracer, arranged the hit to get their hands on Kee's customization secrets—modifications he otherwise refused to share."
―Exantor Divo, Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious[1]

Farwan & Glott was a company that manufactured podracers, including the vehicle used by Xamster podracer Neva Kee in the 7945 C.R.C. Boonta Eve Classic on the planet Tatooine. Kee modified the podracer but refused to share his experimental modifications and then vanished during the race.[1]

After Coruscant Security Force Inspector Tanivos Divo was sent an unverifiable hologram showing that crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure had paid bounty hunter Aurra Sing to capture Kee after he crashed, Divo formed a theory years after the race that Farwan & Glott had organized the hit in order to learn of Kee's secret modifications to their vehicle. Divo's grandson, Exantor Divo, later published this theory in his book, Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious,[1] in 34 ABY.[2]

Behind the scenes

In the current Star Wars canon, Farwan & Glott were mentioned in the 2018 reference book Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo.[1] The company originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was first mentioned in the 1999 Star Wars: Episode I Insider's Guide reference software.[3]

Therefore, 8011 C.R.C. must have been around 34 ABY. Scum and Villainy also mentions Hosnian Prime as still being capital of the New Republic, meaning the in-universe Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious must have been published prior to the destruction of the planet, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 34 ABY. As the publishing must have occurred between the time of the latest entries and the destruction of Hosnian Prime, it therefore also took place around 34 ABY.
