Biography

Leids in Chalmun's cantina

Leids in Chalmun's cantina

Nabrun once worked for Omogg, a Drackmarian warlord of Quelii sector, as did many others of his species. He later left that region of space to escape bounty hunters after he broke the contract. He was particularly familiar with the Triellus Trade Route, between the Sisar Run and Tatooine. In 0 BBY, Leids was present in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina along with the smuggler Rycar Ryjerd when Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi came to look for a pilot, eventually meeting Han Solo.

Behind the scenes
