Dust Viper Den functioned as the central headquarters for the criminal organization known as the Dust Vipers, whose operations were centered within the Jundland Wastes region of Tatooine. Following the ascension of the notorious criminal Bel Nerodia to the leadership position, he rapidly transformed the Dust Vipers into a significant and powerful entity, setting up the Den's location close to Anchorhead. During the year 3630 BBY, the Dust Vipers executed an ambush on a supply convoy belonging to the Eternal Alliance, successfully acquiring security schematics pertaining to the Alliance base situated on Odessen. This act of aggression spurred the Alliance into action, leading to a retaliatory strike against the Dust Vipers, with a specialized team being dispatched to infiltrate the Den. Bel Nerodia personally engaged the strike team, but was ultimately overcome and met his demise.
