Orion Ferret was a Human male who served as an unscrupulous telepathic weapons trader and plied his wares aboard the commercial merchant station Bazarre during the time of the Galactic Civil War. He crossed paths with Lando Calrissian on more than one occasion.

Ferret was a tall, slender, middle-aged Human male. He had thin, graying hair and a gaunt, narrow face. While operating on Bazarre, Orion traditionally dressed in black formal attire, with a red bowtie and white dress shirt. Thick red buttons, and large heart-shaped sequins adorned the lapels of his jacket.

Orion Ferret owned a small squid-like animal, which he kept as a pet. This diminutive green creature could frequently be seen resting on Orion’s shoulder or climbing about his head and neck.

Orion maintained an entourage of servants at any given moment. Two of his colleagues were known as P’Lor and Quad-Lo. The exact nature of Orion’s telepathic capability is unclear. There is nothing in his background to suggest that he was Force-sensitive, although he was able to successfully maintain a telepathic link with P’Lor.
