Ferpil Wallaway was a male Xexto pawnshop owner and pickpocket who lived in Lothal's Capital City during the reign of the Galactic Empire. He owned a pawn shop, which lay opposite the abandoned Go-Lothal Hotel. Due to his line of work, he had dealings with several criminal elements.

Ezra managed to sell the tickets to a Chagrian tourist and his Twi'lek companions but also took the opportunity to steal his Imperial pin, a jewelled ring, wrist comm, and most of the contents from his money pouch.

Jenkes drove to Ferpil's Pawn Shop and informed Ferpil that he was the Commissioner. After demanding that the Xexto hand over his credits, he shot Ferpil in the chest with his blaster.
