She was the commander of her own gang of raiders , leading them in incursions against unsuspecting , unprotected villages . During these raids Malak used a modified snare gun to capture living prey . Circa 1 BBY , Malak was still a petty criminal . She attacked the Outer Rim planet Byss , which was inhabited by Abyssins , who were a common target for slavers by that point . She captured at least one Abyssin , Myo , and took him aboard her starship . She then left Byss and made a stop at Kinun Depot to refuel her ship . Myo took the opportunity to escape from Malak . The Empire listed her as the subject of one of their TracSheet s , which were used to record charges against criminals . Malak was filed under number 11706900 - AGTY - 233476 . She was accused with several charges , including the activities of a slaver and the possession of illegal weapons . She was also suspected of piracy .
