Nabrun Leids was a Morseerian[1] male smuggler[2] and pilot-for-hire[1] who flew the Scarlet Vertha, a Ghtroc Industries 720 light freighter.[2] Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Leids was a patron of Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on the planet Tatooine. He was standing at the cantina's bar when Luke Skywalker entered with C-3PO and R2-D2, a pair of droids, turning around when the bartender Wuher informed them of the establishment's no droid policy.[3]
Leids had brown skin and a pair of large, black eyes,[3] and, because his species evolved to breathe methane, not oxygen, he wore a breath mask[4] and carried his own supply of the gas[1] while on Tatooine.[4]
Many years later, Leids was present on Oba Diah, where he told Karr Nuq Sin about Skywalker and Kenobi's appearance at the cantina, though Leids did not remember what planet it had occurred on, just that it had two suns.[5]

Nabrun Leids was portrayed by Janice Burchette in the 1977 film Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, the first installment of the Star Wars original trilogy.[3]
