Muftak is a native of Mos Eisley. Unlike the Jawas and Sand People, Muftak’s species, the Talz, is not indigenous to Tatooine-he was just raised there. Muftak didn’t even know his species, as he was orphaned when young and grew up on the streets of Mos Eisley.

There, he grew strong and learned a lot about the city and its inhabitants. Despite his fierce appearance and immense build, Muftak is a gentle being, quite easy to get along with. However, much like a Wookiee, Muftak has no qualms about removing the limbs of anyone who is too annoying or threatening. He has pledged to protect his ever-faithful companion, Kabe.

Muftak’s young alien friend was also found on the streets of Mos Eisley, apparently abandoned by slavers who thought she was too small to sell. Muftak took her in and has taught the child the ways of the streets as best he can.

Muftak prefers to fight barehanded because that’s where his natural talents lie. He does own a beat-up hold-out blaster, but it failed on him once too often for him to depend on it. With his alien companion, Kabe, Muftak lives in a section of abandoned tunnels beneath Docking Bay 83.

The aimless Muftak had no true ambitions as his wants were small, and what little money he needed was stolen by Kabe or made through the sale of information to off-worlders. He befriended Momaw Nadon, the Ithorian, and spent many long hours talking with him.

Muftak had no allegiance in the civil war. That he has lived his entire life on Tatooine insulated him from the harshest aspects of the Empire. However, shortly after the events that shook Mos Eisley, Muftak became embroiled in the galactic rebellion, and he and Kabe left Mos Eisley, in search of their destiny…
