Nebit/Legends

Nebit was a Jawa Chief. He was his tribe's main negotiator and a leader responsible for organizing raids on rival tribes.

Biography


Nebit's tribe captured droids for trading, and his sandcrawler boasted a large stock of varied makes and models at the time they carried the droids C-3PO and R2-D2, who were fugitives from the Empire. His tribe sold the droid counterparts to Owen Lars, the uncle of Luke Skywalker, future Rebel Alliance hero and Jedi Knight. While negotiating with Lars, Nebit adopted a Jawa "business dialect".

It was unknown if Nebit managed to escape the destruction dealt out on his sandcrawler by Imperial stormtroopers, when the fugitives C-3PO and R2-D2 were traced there. Most of Nebit's tribe were murdered in this event. Nebit died with them.
