Ba'ken

Ba'ken was an alien active on the planet Zenarita. At some point during the Galactic Empire's occupation of Zenarita, he provided thrusters for the human Chita's starship, and later a job that got her in trouble with the Empire. When Ba'ken considered the situation on Zenarita to be dicey, he deactivated Chita's ship's systems until she paid double of what they originally agreed upon.

Chita eventually confronted Ba'ken at some point between 2 BBY and 0 ABY in a cantina and demanded an explanation. The alien stated his terms and told the outraged human that he would reactivate her ship as soon as he received his payment. The Cerean former Jedi Gleenu overheard the exchange and offered to pay off Chita's debt as long as she could perform a job for the Cerean. Gleenu and Chita made the deal and Chita's ship had its systems reactivated.
