Next up in the Gholden family is Gholden Boi. The third son of the family, and the brother closest to Rhule. He wasn't strong like his brother Brick, or fast like his brother Rhule, but he was quick-witted and used his vocabulary to confuse and confound his tormentors. He also became very skilled at slight of hand and outright theft. His Hutt owner always took what he managed to find and often beat him. Boi's flip manor and canned patter allowed him time to scan his environments like the space port or junker shops and pick a target or gave him time to distract his audience long enough to slip into the nearest shadows. He became very good at disappearing and manipulating the odds. Which is when he ran into the golden droid PH4-LNX. His shenanigans caught her attention. Rhule managed to explain to her their situation and his fear that his brother was going to wind up Rancor food if he stayed where he was. Boi denied this. However, PH4-LNX was intrigued by the young boy's skill and managed to set up a scenario when Jedi were nearby that allowed Boi's natural force use to show up. He hadn't known he was doing that, but she had an idea, having run into force manipulations before. The Jedi didn't negotiate with the Hutt and took him that very afternoon, but not before Boi saw what happened to his brother. Rhule, was the scape-goat of this situation and wound up losing his hand his dominate hand because the Jedi had "stolen" valuable property. During training, Boi excelled. His master was confounded by his strength but Boi's rebellion, non-conforming to the 'code' and his burgeoning adolescence created all kinds of problems. Finally it was decided he would either have his connection to the force severed or he'd be sent to some 'farms'. Overhearing this, Boi bided his time, planned his route, and escaped. Or thought he did. A rather unorthodox Jedi decided she needed to keep an eye on this problematic force user and remind him there were people who cared about him in the galaxy. Later on, having stolen, scrounged, and lied his way onto a freighter he found out she was there too. And she explained that there were a lot of ways to help people, being a Jedi was merely one of them. Eventually Boi wound up with his own freighter, becoming a damn fine pilot, and while he usually took jobs that dealt with smuggling provisions to those that were struggling, he wasn't above running some arms from time to time if the price was right and the cause clean. He picked up a shipment for a man named "Rogun" and well, the rest of the story is still unfolding.
