Lando Calrissian was a professional gambler, entrepreneur, smuggler, and all out "PLAYA" . Born on Socorro, he became a gambler and con man early in his life and acquired his own ship, the Millennium Falcon, in a game of sabacc with a man named Cix Trouvee.He was later contacted by Luke Skywalker for assistance during a mission to the Maw with Skywalker's Sith allies. Calrissian reluctantly agreed, and successfully carried out the mission. Afterward, he returned to Coruscant and warned the Jedi of not only the danger posed by the Sith, but also the hidden menace which Skywalker and the Sith were pursuing. To that end, he assisted in getting a large number of Jedi StealthXs offworld to assist the Skywalkers.
Though Luke, Hans Solo and Princess Leia get all the notoriety...Lando is #1 in my heart ! Lando Calrissian, gambler, general...the man
