Malakili
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Malakili is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe. In the Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, he is played by Paul Brooke and Ernie Fosselius.
Malakili was Jabba the Hutt's personal rancor trainer. A veteran of the Circus Horrificus, he had a deep affinity for the beast. In the time before Episode VI, Jabba had offered a lavish reward for anyone who could capture a krayt dragon to pit against the rancor; fearful of the rancor being hurt or killed, Malakili conspired with Lady Valerian to take them away. After Luke Skywalker killed the rancor, Malikili swore revenge against Jabba. He is friends with Porcellus the cook, who opened a restaurant with him.
He has made appearances in the Star Wars video games Star Wars Demolition and Star Wars Galaxies.
