==Biography==
A human was a scavenger during the High Republic Era. In 132 BBY, the individual, along with another scavenger, hiked through a forest on the Outer Rim planet Khofar. As the scavenger complained that they were lost and that he could not believe his companion had convinced him to go there, the two scavengers came across a crashed starship, which was actually the shelter of the Wookiee Jedi Kelnacca. After the scavenger's companion suggested that they may be able to find a hyperdrive to strip for parts within the wreck, the scavengers noticed a sign which read "Keep Out" in Shyriiwook, but they were unable to read it. The pair were then approached by Kelnacca, who roared at them, causing the scavenger to draw his blaster and aim it at the Wookiee. In response, Kelnacca Force pulled the blaster from the scavenger's hands and broke it in two, causing the scavengers to flee.

==Behind the scenes==
===Overview===
The scavenger first appeared in "Revenge / Justice," the second episode of the 2024 Disney+ live-action series The Acolyte, which aired on June 4, 2024. He was portrayed by Scroobius Pip. 
Pip was excited to be in Star Wars and was "jumping around" because of it. He was particularly excited about his costume, which he thought was "cool" and said "felt like a Star Wars costume. After trying on multiple costumes, his outfit was aged up and dirtied. During one take, Pip hit his shin on a rock on set and then had to pretend he was alright for the remainder of the takes. Kelnacca pulling away the scavenger's blaster was done by having someone stand on a ladder and pull it with string. It took multiple takes to get the angle correct, and during one take, the blaster was broken and had to be repaired. It was important to Pip that he did not meet Kelnacca actor Joonas Suotamo without his costume on, so he refused to go in communal areas on set. According to Pip, Director Leslye Headland said that the scene was the best shot in the episode. 
===Auditions and dialogue===
Pip auditioned three times for multiple characters, including both scavengers, and said he believed the other roles he auditioned for were cut. Pip had to do a self-tape audition for the role while he had COVID-19, and because he was isolating, could not have someone else read lines with him. However, because he was auditioning for both characters in the scene, Pip recorded audio for both roles and then combined them into a single tape, which he believed made his audition stand out.
Although the auditions were done in English, the final scene was done in Huttese, so Pip was given a dialect coach two weeks before the scene was filmed. Pip had to focus on stressing, emphasizing, and stretching out certain parts of the dialogue. Pip had difficulty learning his part, so his dialect coach suggested he turn it into a song or chant. Pip then spent an afternoon in his kitchen chanting his dialogue to remember it and then later tightened up the exact wording. After doing a number of takes in Huttese, a couple takes of the scene were done in English as a backup. Pip thought it would have been a shame if the scene had been done in English because it had been "cool" to learn the lines in Huttese and added that he no longer knew the English lines because of how long it had been since he auditioned.
Pip originally had a line that was not initially used when filming the scene. However, when Pip came back a year later to rerecord his lines, he was asked to scream or make noise as he ran away, and he used the line that had been cut, which was saying "run away" in Huttese. His Huttese dialogue was written by Lucasfilm Story Group member Pablo Hidalgo.
