- "You and I, we're a lot alike. Willing to lay our lives down for the right cause. Which this is not."
- ―Lang, to Din Djarin
Lang was a human male mercenary who worked for Morgan Elsbeth, serving as the Magistrate's Captain of the Guard[4] on the planet of Corvus[3] in 9 ABY.[2] The Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin speculated Lang had previously been part of a military faction. Lang and Elsbeth had been in conflict with former Jedi Ahsoka Tano, with Elsbeth hiring Djarin to kill Tano. However, Djarin and Tano banded together to thwart them, with Djarin gunning down Lang after a short standoff as his new ally dueled and soon defeated Elsbeth.[3]
