Like most Mustafarians at the time, Laz Fal'co was a miner once he was of age. Not long into his career however, the Clone Wars raged and eventually the campaign known as the Outer Rim Sieges. The Separatist Council was relocated to his home facility. Laz didn't care much about the war but was pro-Separatist and excited with the sudden activity on Mustafar.

Laz was working a normal day near this facility when he saw his first human and astromech droid exit a starcraft. He later that day saw 2 Jedi(?) fighting by the lava river, right near him. He'd never even seen a human, let alone a Force-sensitive being. Unfortunately for him, he was just a short distance away from the destruction of the CIS that happened not long ago.

That said, a pocket of resistance on the planet led to a short but destructive battle here on Mustafar. His home was decimated by a fallen Venator and this area of the planet became a hell scape of broken down vehicles, tech, war supplies, and deactivated and destroyed battle droids. The Empire cared only about the active mines on the world at the time and didn't leave a large military presence in the early years of the Empire.

Lax quickly found a new home in a downed AT-TE and became familiar with the remaining online tech systems. In a few short years, he'd find a new passion and drive in life to salvage and repurpose these Clone War era tech. He loved it, and quickly became obsessed with it all, seeking more and more. He used it both for himself and began a business selling these repurposed gizmos.

Eventually however, the war tech on the planet had been removed by locals and the Empire so Lax was running out of things to collect and work on. This was his life's work and he wanted more! So he needed to get off-world, and quick! He hitched a ride with some unsavory characters and ended up helping them for payment in old parts and gadgets.

That's when he learned most Clone War tech was confiscated by the Empire or sold illegally through the black market. As Lax already didn't like the Empire, he was not against going around the law to steal this tech or get his hands dirty with the black market. He'd only been caught and jailed once but he escaped shortly after.

He now finds himself trying to hitch rides to more scrapyard-rich planets but has been down on his luck and most recently liquidated all his droids and gear to get to the next coreward world.

Laz is an average weight for a North Mustafarian but a tad short. He normally wears his miner armor and breathing receptacle as do most Mustafarians. He has customized the armor though a bit, adding clone armor pauldrons and B2 battle droid chest plating to it.
