A merchant of the human species resided within a settlement located on the arid planet of Tatooine, a desert world. This individual was acquainted with Kitster Banai, who, along with the Rodian Wald, had previously escaped enslavement there. Sometime between 3 ABY and 4 ABY, the vendor noticed Banai and Wald, both wearing hoods, approaching him. He cautioned them about the danger of their return. Banai then disclosed his intention to sell one of a number of energy capsules. Upon examining it, the vendor was astonished to find it contained enough energy to power the entire city of Mos Eisley for an entire month.
After purchasing the capsule, the vendor was accosted by three thieves to whom he revealed information about Banai and the remaining capsules. Subsequently, the thieves killed the vendor and stole the capsule. The vendor's physical description included fair skin, brown [hair](/article/hair], and attire consisting of a brown jacket, a tan shirt, and a soiled gray bandana.
The fiftieth issue of the Star Wars: Darth Vader comic-book series from 2020 featured the vendor. Greg Pak wrote the issue, Adam Gorham provided the illustrations of the vendor, and Marvel Comics published it on September 18, 2024.
