Nilsson Summach

"I live my life by my own rules, so why not make credits where there are credits to be made? You act like arms trading is worse than the politics of the Republic, where senators trade favors for small wins, a mine here for foodstuffs there. We are all arms dealers. Some of us are just more honest about it."

―Nilsson Summach, to Vernestra Rwoh^[2]

Nilsson Summach was an arms dealer and spice addict who was the son of the human Kolin Summach and a half-Kuranu mother.^[2] Around 160 BBY,^[1] Summach manufactured 47 lightsaber nullifiers, and he was investigated by Jedi Master Vernestra Rwoh and Jedi Knight Indara.
