Dieben

Dieben was a male Nalydian criminal who was wanted for various crimes on his homeworld of Nalyd. He was regarded by Ania Solo as unintelligent and lacking much imagination at lying. By 138 ABY, Dieben had come into the services of the rogue Sith Darth Wredd, who had broken away from the underground One Sith order. During the Carreras Incident in 138 ABY, Dieben was placed in charged of guarding the captured Imperial Knight Yalta Val, who was imprisoned on the floating dead world of Mala. His known duties included providing food to the imprisoned Val and facilitating communications between Wredd and his captive. Meanwhile, his master Darth Wredd impersonated the real Yalta Val and took charge of the assembly of the Carreras G51 communications array.

Dieben was present when Darth Wredd used the Carreras communications to broadcast his manifesto to the wider galaxy and attempted to kill Yalta Val. Following the collision of the Carreras communications array with the planet Mala, Dieben escaped in an escape pod but was picked up by Carreras security forces in the Surd Nebula. He was then extradited to his homeworld of Nalyd to face justice for his crimes. Due to the severity of his crimes, Dieben was sentenced to death by firing squad. In their quest to hunt down Darth Wredd, the junk dealer Ania Solo and the Imperial Knight Jao Assam rescued Dieben from the arena with the intent of questioning him about Wredd's whereabouts. During the question attempt, Dieben was killed when he was impaled on a sharp plant. Despite his death, Ania and Jao later learnt from his captors that he had planned to rendezvous with some "powerful friends" in Dac. This turned out to be a slaving operation run by another rogue Sith named Darth Luft and his pirate associates.
