Wyle Ulbreck

Wyle Ulbreck was a Human male who resided on the desert planet Tatooine in the years surrounding the fall of the Galactic Republic. During a sixty year career as a moisture farmer, Ulbreck became very wealthy and, by the time of the Galactic Empire, operated a large ranch north of the Jundland Wastes where he lived with his wife, Magda. More than twice the size of any other nearby moisture farm, Ulbreck's farm was staffed by numerous farmhands and guarded by private security personnel.

Confident in his own security, Ulbrek was one of the few settlers in the region not to join the Settlers' Call, a group led by the moisture farmer Orrin Gault which provided mutual defense for its members against the frequent attacks by the native Tusken Raiders. By 19 BBY, Gault was heavily in debt and began attacking his neighbors disguised as a Tusken Raider in the hopes of convincing them to join the Settlers' Call so that he could use the membership fees to pay off his debts. Ulbreck was among those targeted, but was able to escape the attack after the intervention of the self-exiled Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Although Gault attempted to frame the Jedi for the attacks, Kenobi was able to reveal the truth to Ulbreck and the other settlers.
