Zirlig was a male Ishi Tib assassin who was a member of the Antar Band. Zirlig had the reputation for being a perfectionist. His efforts resulted in a perfect record of murder-for-hires. He also worked for the Antar Band's leader, Ujin Voli, for over two decades resulting in a deep loyalty, despite the Band's feud with the larger group Black Sun. Zirlig preferred a long-range blaster over messier methods of killing.
