Chall Bekan was a Force-attuned Morseerian male who lived during the Galactic Civil War. As a leader, he had connections to the Galactic Empire's government on the planet Tatooine.[1] Bekan maintained a network of alien agents, which he used to keep surveillance on both[2] the crime lord[3] Jabba the Hutt and the Alliance to Restore the Republic.[2]

Bekan was a methane breather who wore an environment suit and a breath mask,[1] both of which were worn by his species in low-methane environments.[4]

Behind the scenes

Chall Bekan was created for 1998's Official Tournament Sealed Deck of Decipher's Star Wars Customizable Card Game.[1] According to a Star Wars CCG fan site, Bekan's name is an anagram of the last name of[5] Decipher game playtester Chuck Kallenbach.[6]
