Lord Gyuti, a male Falleen, held a significant position as a boss within the Black Sun criminal organization. He was once caught up in a fiasco on Ryloth which almost ended his life and from which the syndicate required a period of recovery. During the Galactic Empire's rule, Lady Qi'ra of Crimson Dawn extended an invitation to him to attend an auction on Jekara for Han Solo.
Following the Empire's collapse, Rynscar, an Underboss serving as one of Gyuti's key subordinates, apprehended the bounty hunter Jas Emari. Rynscar informed Emari of her intention to return with Emari's head as a prize for Gyuti. However, Emari managed to persuade Rynscar to divulge information regarding Han Solo's whereabouts. In addition, she pledged to repay three times the debt owed to Gyuti.
Some months later, Mercurial Swift, a bounty hunter, resolved to claim Gyuti's outstanding bounty on Jas. Swift sought retribution for a previous humiliation suffered at the hands of Jas and her allies on Taris. Rynscar, the Underboss, verified that Gyuti still sought Jas's capture. Swift assembled a team of bounty hunters, including Dengar, Embo, and Jeeta. Despite successfully capturing Jas on Jakku, Jas skillfully turned the situation around. She convinced Dengar and the others to join forces with her to pursue Grand Admiral Rae Sloane in exchange for pardons and financial compensation from the New Republic.
