Okfili

The Okfili were a sentient species. During the Galactic Civil War between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance,^[1] they were allied with the Alliance.^[2] At some point by that time, an art object of great religious significance to the Okfili was stolen from them, coming into the possession of a group of pirates based on^[1] the Mid Rim^[3] planet Sayblohn.^[1] The Okfili requested that the Alliance find the art object, to which end a Rebel special operative team was sent to Sayblohn to retrieve the artifact.^[2]

The Rebel team ultimately succeeded in its task.^[1]

Behind the scenes

The Okfili were introduced in the 1987 rulebook for the first edition of West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.^[1] They shared their name with the Okfili system of^[4] the Outer Rim Territories' Albarrio sector^[5] that was introduced in Glen Allison's article "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, How I Wonder Where We Are," which was published in the 1990 thirteenth issue of the Voyages SF magazine.^[4] The article is considered noncanonical with respect to the Star Wars Legends continuity.^[6]
