Dastid, a Zabrak of male gender, existed in the era of the Galactic War. Before the Conquest of Makeb, he was employed by the Hutt Cartel. He once launched an assault on a Colony ship, which resulted in the ship's 500 passengers being cast adrift in the void of space. He later rose to the position of leading figure in the Rishi-based Kanawyn Syndicate, operating alongside his siblings Avax and Chrone. In the year 3637 BBY, the Syndicate targeted Thera Markon's smuggling operations, attempting to seize her routes and clientele. Thera initially deterred the Kanawyns by leveraging the renowned reputation of her bounty hunter mother, Crysta Markon, who also mentored the Grand Champion of the Great Hunt; this tactic proved effective for a period. However, this strategy eventually failed, leading to Crysta's murder at the hands of the Syndicate, an act that ultimately led to their downfall. Thera then used her wealth to place a bounty on the heads of all three Syndicate leaders. The Grand Champion claimed the bounty, eliminating Dastid and his siblings, which significantly crippled the Kanawyn Syndicate.
