- "That way. I saw it myself. She has special powers."
- ―This scavenger reporting Rani to a stormtrooper
This scavenger was a short alien individual who was present on the planet Golak[1] at some point between 18 BBY and 3 BBY.[3] They, alongside another scavenger, were passengers aboard a hovertrain when they witnessed a young girl, Rani, use the Force to grab a flute from her brother Charuk. This scavenger went to report her to a nearby Imperial stormtrooper while the other watched over the girl, though the siblings fled before they could be caught, escaping when the train was attacked by Jangori warriors.[1]
Later, this scavenger and their companion made their way to the Golak Mahal, where they watched the siblings once more, before an Imperial Inquisitor arrived searching for the children. These scavengers were caught up in the ensuing chaos, as this Inquisitor engaged in a duel with the Jedi-in-hiding Rugal while a sandstorm raged around them.[1]
Behind the scenes
This scavenger made their first appearance in the Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 episode "The Bandits of Golak," written and directed by Ishan Shukla, and produced by 88 Pictures. They were voiced by either Sahil Vaid or Richard Joel. A poster featuring this scavenger's face can be seen posted within the hovertrain at the beginning of the episode, though it is unclear whether it is intended to be this individual.[1]

- ↑ "The Bandits of Golak" takes place during the Great Jedi Purge, which ended with the Mission to Malachor per The Odyssey of Star Wars: An Epic Poem. Star Wars: Timelines dates the mission to 3 BBY, this is when the Jedi Purge ended. The short also features TIE/ln space superiority starfighters, which were introduced in 18 BBY per Timelines. Therefore, "The Bandits of Golak" must take place between 18 BBY and 3 BBY.
