Het Nkik/Legends

"The Jawas are not powerless&mdash;if they do not wish to be."

- Obi-Wan Kenobi

Het Nkik was a free-thinking Jawa from Tatooine.

Biography


Like most Jawas, Het was a master trader. Unlike the rest of his species, he believed that the Jawas should not have to live in fear of their fellow inhabitants, Humans and Tusken Raiders. His radical ideas were considered dangerous by his fellow Jawas, even his trusted clan elder, Wimateeka. After his brother and best friend Jek Nkik was killed by sandtroopers, Het purchased a Blastech DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, even though weapon possession was illegal for Jawas under Imperial law. At Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina, the pistol's power pack was stolen by Reegesk.

Het tried to kill the sandtroopers, but when the pistol would not work 1047 shot him dead.
