Nebit

Nebit was a Jawa male who served as chief of a tribe of Jawas from the planet Tatooine. The Jawa's combed the planet's deserts in a sandcrawler for lost droids or technology that they could sell. In 0 BBY, Nebit and his tribe stopped at the Lars moisture farm and brought out a variety of droids for the Lars family to browse. Owen Lars selected the protocol droid C-3PO and the astromech droid R5-D4 from amongst Nebit's stock, but as the pair discussed the purchase, R5-D4 blew its motivator.
Based on advice from C-3PO, Lars' nephew Luke Skywalker then recommended they buy the astromech R2-D2 instead, which Nebit agreed to. The sandcrawler was later attacked by Imperial stormtroopers searching for C-3PO and R2-D2. Most of Nebit's tribe were murdered in the attack, and as he died, Nebit pointed the Imperials in the direction of the Lars Homestead.The Odyssey of Star Wars: An Epic Poem The bodies of the tribe were later found and burnt by Skywalker, the droids, and the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi.
