Wadewarn, a smuggler in the employ of Talon Karrde and operating on Myrkr, found himself present during a dinner in 9 ABY alongside Lando Calrissian and Han Solo; this dinner was abruptly halted by the arrival of Grand Admiral Thrawn.
The character of Wadewarn received his name as a tribute from author Timothy Zahn to Wade Warren, one of his fans.
