Elan Sleazebaggano
Species: Balosar
Gender: Male
Height: 1.78 meters
The Movies
The shadowy depths of Coruscant are full of many unsavory characters. A slimy narcotics peddler who frequents some of the entertainment district's nightclubs and gambling bars, Elan Sleazebaggano looked to make a quick credit by selling his illicit wares. After attempting to sell death sticks to a Jedi Knight, Sleazebaggano reportedly went home that night and completely rethought his life.
Expanded Universe
Young Elan once was on the path to a promising life as a medical student studying on Coruscant when he fell in with the wrong crowd. He did nothing to dispel the stereotype that Balosars are shifty cheats and scoundrels, and ended up stealing the university's medical supplies and selling them to local mobster, Hat Lo. Sleazebaggano parlayed his aborted post-secondary education into a career as a slythmonger, a hustler of pharmaceutical contraband in the entertainment districts of Coruscant.
His bestseller? Death sticks -- treated Ixetal cilona extract that offers euphoria in exchange for a shortened life. His Balosar physiology gives him a heightened resistance to the more damaging side effects of the drug, but he too is an addict. It is only the quality of his product that gains him any popularity in the seedy Coruscant scene. In truth, the clubbers view him as little more than an oily, awkward, embarrassing parasite.
Behind The Scenes
Elan Sleazebaggano's alien features -- antenepalps -- were computer-generated additions carefully matched to actor Matt Doran's head-movements. Literature that includes pictures of the actor without the CG antennae explains away their absence by noting that the flexible extremities could be concealed under hair.

Why do they write an entry for a character that only appeared 5 seconds?
No clue. That's why I posted it.

and why was Doran not told of all these things...
He asked lucas what a deathstick was, who gave him a funny look, then said they were cigarettes...
Nothing screams 'great director' more, than someone who keeps the actors in the dark...
EDIT ADDITIONAL: does anyone know if there is a Sleezebag action figure? OR is there something questional about a toy of a drug dealer. (even though the main hero killed a room full of children...)

Pathetic. An official "biography" on a website substitutes for character development.
What this reminds me of suddenly is of hard-core roleplayers who labour on meticulous character descriptions of their role-playing personas. All that's lacking from Elan's description is his eye colour and a list of his magical abilities and skills with various weapons.
"Sleazebaggano." How drunk was Lucas when he came up with that name?

You know Doran, don't you barend? You are ALWAYS avoiding the question!!!
I still maintain that "death stick" is a poor name for something. Drug namers are usually better marketers than that.

See Chefelf in a Movie! -> The People vs. George Lucas
