Arthen Brutt, in the realm of galactic figures, operated as a smuggler.
The Mud Puddle cantina, situated on Ord Mantell, served as a common haunt for him. It was there that he encountered Dal Konur, a renegade Jedi in training. Brutt had undertaken several voyages to Mount Tantiss on Wayland, amassing various relics that once belonged to the deceased Emperor Palpatine. Konur's aspiration was to acquire a lightsaber, leading him to extract from Brutt the whereabouts of his Wayland-based storage facility.
Subsequently, Brutt found himself in conversation with operatives dispatched by Luke Skywalker, who had assigned them the mission of apprehending Konur.
