Biography
Search for the Arrow
Sometime between 21 BBY and 34 ABY[2], Krynodd attempted to track down the location of the Arrow, a small Imperial shuttle that had crashed in the Starship Graveyard on Jakku and was runored to have been recently uncovered by a storm. Krynood harassed two Niima Outpost inhabitants, first Bobbajo the crittermonger and then Carina, a happabore farmer, but was thwarted both times by the scavenger Jaylin and her friend. In appreciation, Bobbajo and Carina provided Jaylin the information needed to find the Arrow. Krynodd also found the location of the ship and boarded the shuttle with a security droid, but was outsmarted by Jaylin, who was able to get the ship started and left Jakku in it.[3]
Kidnapping of Unkar Plutt
A long-time rival of the Crolute Unkar Plutt, Krynodd wanted to take his place as the junk boss of Niima Outpost.[1] Krynodd tried to take over the outpost three times, but was thwarted by Unkar's thugs.[4] In 33 ABY,[5] he finally had his chance when Plutt was kidnapped by the Zendiat Collective, who blasted into the Outpost to take the junk boss. Krynodd then strolled into the Outpost with his bodyguards and declared himself the new boss, and quickly proved that he was an even worse master than the Crolute, speaking down to Constable Zuvio. Krynodd knocked over Bobbajo when the latter bumped into him.[1] Later, after Plutt was rescued by Rey, Plutt threatened to wring Krynodd's neck and take back his business.[6]
