Atheloe

This Lutrillian was present in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on the day that Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker chartered Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon for passage to Alderaan in 0 BBY.

Behind the scenes
This character was created as background characters for the cantina scene in 1977's Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, one of two members of his species to appear in the film. The character was designed by John Mollo, and his mask was sculpted by Stuart Freeborn for shooting in England. One of these Lutrillians was played by a fat actor and the other by a thinner one; the crew referred to the fat member of the species as the Colonel, and the other as the Hare Mouse. Lucasfilm personnel dubbed one or both of these characters as Ownellco when Kenner asked for official names for the cantina denizens.

Neither Lutrillian is very visible, and neither receives much screen time; the fatter one is visible speaking to the Qiraash female Leesub Sirln, and the other is visible sitting near a pillar directly in front of the cantina entrance. The thinner Lutrillian is later visible walking the streets of Mos Eisley. Both of these characters are more prominently featured in a rough cut of the cantina sequence.
