A character in the Star Wars novel Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, Groshik is a Neimoidian who both owns and runs a cantina on the mining world of Apatros. Groshik reportedly decorated his cantina in the garish color violet to offend the corporate owners of the mine, earning him favor with the miners, though he does, in fact, give the ORO corporation a cut of his profits each week. He remains staunchly opposed to taking sides on political issues as he fears he would lose customers.
