Jimke Weet, a male and Salak Weet's father, was a famous kloo horn soloist. After Salak disappeared in 26 BBY during his and Noa Briqualon's initial voyage, Jimke financed a huge rescue operation lasting four years, using almost all of his credits to locate them. The last responder signal from Salak and Noa's ship originated near the Monsua Nebula, a region of the galaxy notorious for pirate presence. The search, however, was abandoned in 22 BBY when Jimke declared bankruptcy. Following the search's termination, Jimke voiced his hope for Salak's survival in a quote featured in the CoCo District Edition of the HoloNet News, released on 13:3:28. Weet later collaborated with musician Orin Mersai and the act Kang and Lubrichs to create an album of anti-war music.
Jimke Weet's creation occurred for HoloNet News Vol. 531 #49, an edition of the HoloNet News website that was published online on March 28, 2002. Pablo Hidalgo and Paul Ens wrote it.
