The Crew Ensign Grat Apart from Grat himself, I have had very little contact with Gamorreans. I know that he shares a common trait with the rest of his kind - droid hatred. I can remember countless hours spent, with Syl's assistance, persuading him that there could be good droids. Ones that made your ship go, and stopped you being captured by Imperials, or worse pirates and slavers. I hope Grat never sees this, but I feel there is something of the Wookie code of honour in him. I have seen him wade into a fight to protect Syl, then simply shrug the gesture off, almost as if he was embarrassed. I think Gamorrean is such a harsh and unforgiving language that it lacks words for friend. I think the closest they come is "not enemy right now". Syl himself is starting to accept this unlikely bond; his leadership of the pursuit when Grat was kidnapped and forced to fight in the arena was as tenacious as I have ever seen. Grat's close combat skills are also missed, though the loss of useable droids is not!
