- "I hate having to compromise in this way, but it's hard to argue that Faytonni is worth the fuel cells required to send a speeder down to fetch him, and he has a talent for washing his hands of crime. But he'll mess up. They always do."
- ―Inspector Tan Divo
Dannl Faytonni was a male human and a known associate of Achk Med-Beq.[5] The two were present in the Outlander Club on Coruscant[3] in 22 BBY[6] when the Clawdite assassin Zam Wesell attempted to hide there to escape the pursuing Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker.[3] By the time Kenobi and Skywalker were assisting Wesell at the back of the establishment, Faytonni and Med-Beq were patrolling the second floor of the Outlander conjuring.[5]
Three years later,[6] Faytonni attended the Galaxies Opera House the same night Skywalker met with Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine.[7]
Personality and traits[]
Dannl Faytonni had gray hair, blue eyes, and light skin.[3] He was a known con artist who sometimes wore fake military gear to disguise himself.[8]
Behind the scenes[]
Dannl Faytonni first appeared in the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones and was portrayed by Star Wars veteran Anthony Daniels, the actor who also played C-3PO.[3] Within canon, Faytonni was identified in the 2016 reference book Star Wars: Complete Locations.[5] Daniels' cameo as Faytonni is notable for being the first time the actor had appeared in a Star Wars film without the C-3PO costume covering his body,[9] which would later be followed by his cameo as[10] the Coruscanti con artist Tak[11] during a slave uprising in the spice mines of Kessel in the 2018 film Solo: A Star Wars Story.[10]

Notes and references[]

- ↑ Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious states that Dannl Faytonni is 54 years old in 7955 C.R.C.. The book also places the Trade Federation's plot to assassinate Senator Amidala in the same year. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the plot to 22 BBY, therefore it can be deduced 7955 C.R.C. is equivalent to 22 BBY. From this, we can calculate Dannl Faytonni's birth to 76 BBY.
