A band of Nikto mercenaries operated on Arvala-7 circa 9 ABY. This group held captive a child belonging to the same species as Yoda, the former Grand Master of the Jedi Order.
During the age of the New Republic Era, a mercenary company comprised of Nikto individuals established a presence on Arvala-7 around 9 ABY. Their base of operations was an encampment accessible only by riding a blurrg. Their presence on the planet resulted in a constant surge of lawlessness and brutality. At one point, they were in possession of a youngling later called "the asset," who was of the same species as the previous Jedi Grand Master Yoda. Ultimately, news spread that the mercenary group held the individual, and many sought its capture. The violence instigated by the mercenaries prompted Kuiil, an Ugnaught moisture farmer, to assist those aiming to seize "the asset," but they all failed and died.
Eventually, a bounty hunter known as "the Mandalorian" was employed by a member of a surviving Imperial remnant. Upon arriving at the encampment, the Mandalorian encountered IG-11, who was also tasked with dealing with "the asset," albeit with orders to eliminate it. The two bounty hunters collaborated to eradicate the mercenary group, after which the Mandalorian was compelled to terminate IG-11 to prevent the droid from harming "the asset."
