Ploovo Two-For-One (far right) with Durmag, EV-4D9 and Beatas (left to right)
Ploovo's Protocol Team was a criminal group that worked for crime lord Ploovo Two-For-One.[1]
The Protocol Team was a five-person group that specialized in obtaining money owed to Ploovo. Due to Ploovo's loan-shark activities, often multiple people were behind in their payments; in those cases, Ploovo sent the Protocol Team to collect the delinquent payments.[1]
The Protocol Team used violence and the threat of violence to obtain the money. For unclear reasons, the Protocol Team was considered a threat by the Rebel Alliance.[1]
Members
The team was an efficient mix of aliens and droids. The members were:
- Beatas, a Klatooinian mercenary who led the Protocol Team. He began working for Ploovo in 5 BBY.[1]
- Durmag, a force-pike-wielding Gamorrean, who started working for Ploovo shortly before 2 ABY. Previously, Durmag worked for another crime lord, but that being traded Durmag to Ploovo for an undefined favor.[1]
- EV-4D9, a sadistic droid, bought after HN-TR1 and Lotas expressed their interest in it.[1]
- HN-TR1, an assassin droid, was hired by Ploovo in 4 BBY.[1]
- Lotas, a Rodian cyborg, began working for Ploovo in undisclosed situations.[1]
