- "It is perfectly wretched. Sesquifian must've bought the worms from Dobias."
- ―Baze Malbus
Dobias Cole-Truten was a human who made a meager living on Jedha trapping and selling silichordate worms that other vendors would turn into meals. He required a rebreather due to his chronic respiratory condition, which he got from digging near Jedha's kyber mines.[3] Cole-Truten had a reputation, at least with Baze Malbus, of selling particularly wretched worms.[4] In 0 BBY,[1] Cole-Truten was in Jedha City when it was targeted by the Galactic Empire's Death Star,[5] and was killed in the destruction.[2]
