Airten was a light-skinned Human male sergeant of the Bespin Wing Guard,[1] the main security force of Cloud City[2] on the gas giant Bespin,[3] during the Galactic Civil War.[1] A burly Wing Guard member,[4] his large size prevented him from becoming a pilot; however, joining the Wing Guard, Airten's nonstandard build did not matter to Lando Calrissian,[1] the city's Baron Administrator.[5] Airten was a sympathizer of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. He wore the standard uniform for the Bespin Wing Guard. He also wielded a blaster pistol.[1]
