Neither good looking nor shy, or so Fode & Beed's introduction read, Ark "Bumpy" Roose was one of the 18 Podracer pilots that competed in the fateful Boonta Eve Classic that saw the liberation of Anakin Skywalker. He drove an unwieldy craft with clustered Podracer engines and a globe-shaped canopy enclosing the cockpit. During the second lap of the race, he had to put in for on-the-go maintenance administered by his team of pit droids.
