Tae Goal

Tae Goal was a slice doc who operated during the Imperial Era.^[1] Between 3 ABY and 4 ABY,^[2] the rogue archaeologist Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra visited Goal with the smuggler Sana Starros after^[1] her^[3] electro-tattoos were blown out after she used a Thought Dowser aboard the Vermillion^[1]—the criminal syndicate Crimson Dawn's Fortress-Flagship.^[3]

Goal was not able to repair the tattoos so the pair visited the Toydarian slice doc Murl on^[1] the Core Worlds planet^[4] Corellia instead. After Murl was also unable to repair them, Starros suggested they go back to Goal. Aphra, however, disagreed because she felt Goal was not as good a slice doc as Murl, and if Murl could not repair them, she was not sure who could. The tattoos were eventually repaired and upgraded by the Tagge Corporation.^[1]
