Booton Piton was a short[2] Human[1] female[2] with light skin. During a night[1] in 22 BBY,[3] Piton walked in the Uscru Entertainment District of the planet[4] Coruscant and turned around to watch the bounty hunter Zam Wesell's[1] Koro-2 all-environment exodrive airspeeder[5] descend through the air. When the speeder crashed, Piton, with the[1] Rodian Nardi Shodu,[6] approached the crash site.[1]
Shortly after,[1] Piton traveled on an errand to the[2] Outlander Club, a nightclub and gambling hall[7] in the district with Shodu.[2] They entered the club arm in arm just in front of the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, who were there to capture Wesell.[1] Shodu and Piton then walked behind a[1] turbolift[4] in the club. During the visit,[1] Piton wore a form-fitting hunters cap[2] and a gray coat.[1]
