Dust was a male bounty hunter of the Abyssin species. He operated throughout the Galactic War era, and was considered the top assassin employed by Rogun the Butcher. Famously, Dust was known for his uncanny ability to repeatedly return from death. Around 3641 BBY, Rogun dispatched Dust to Belsavis with orders to eliminate Ivory as well as the smuggler who would eventually be known as Voidhound. His initial attempt involved ambushing the smuggler within the High Security Section, aided by officer Legat; however, he was instead shot in the head. Subsequently, he launched another attack on Voidhound and Ivory inside the Tomb, where they worked together to defeat him once more. Despite this, he revived and attacked a third time, only to be killed yet again. This time, the two criminals departed before Dust could resurrect and pursue them further.
Should the player have Languss Tuno as their companion, Tuno will recognize Dust. Given that Dust is killed by the player on three separate occasions, and visibly revives at least once, the finality of his death as depicted may be questionable.
