Unidentified purple-skinned criminal

A purple-skinned alien was a criminal who operated in the company of a Rodian and an Ithorian criminal on the moon K'shar during the Republic Era. Between 40 BBY and 34 BBY, the three encountered two Jedi, Qui-Gon Jinn and Tensu Run, on the moon and instructed they each hand over all credits they possessed, unbeknownst the two were in fact Jedi.

After the Jedi revealed themselves to be users of the Force, the criminals became surprised at the revelation, only to then decide they would kill the two and strip them of their lightsabers. Engaging in a brief clash, Run then utilized a mind trick on the trio, making the criminal and their allies believe they were tired from fighting and decide to rest instead. The two Jedi then departed from the criminals and continued on the mission they were previously on.
