Dil Pexton was a Sullustan male who functioned as an agent for the Grafs. This family of cartographers operated in Wild Space. He aided the family in securing agreements regarding their collected maps and data, and further helped them find a distant, uncharted swampworld for exploration. A blaster pistol made by SoroSuub Corporation belonged to Dil Pexton. Pexton's blaster pistol was inexpensive, rudimentary, and had a limited range, especially when contrasted with a weapon from the Imperial forces.
Subsequently, after the parents' kidnapping by Captain Visler Korda of the Galactic Empire, the Graf children, Lina Graf and Milo Graf, journeyed to Thune seeking his help. Upon arriving, Pexton welcomed them into his shop, where Lina came to hand over files transmitted to their droid, Crater. Korda, having coerced Pexton into aiding the Empire under threat of imprisonment, then captured her. They manipulated Milo into meeting them at Merchant's Bridge. Pexton attempted to restrain Crater, but was instead stunned and taken into custody by the Empire.
Cavan Scott's young adult series, Adventures in Wild Space, features Dil Pexton as a character.
