- "Nar Kanji has a pit warrior—Wyrmen Lictor. She killed a fighter I sponsored once—cost me a bundle. I've always wanted her dead. But she's valuable to the Kanji Hutts, so they keep her protected."
- ―Doc Ragon
Wyrmen Lictor was a pit warrior who operated on Nar Kanji. Lictor was a successful warrior who, once she climbed to the top of the ranking, remained there as champion for a long time. Her reputation became such that many warriors, once they learned that they were to challenge her, took their winning and forfeited the chance for 10 times their current winnings. She was valuable to the Kanji Hutts, and, as such, they kept her well protected.[1]
Lictor once killed a pit fighter sponsored by the Besalisk Doc Ragon, who wished for her death as a result of his loss. Sometime after the bounty hunter Boba Fett acquired the carbon-frozen body of the smuggler Han Solo, the carbonite matrix became unstable. Fett visited Ragon for assistance, and the Besalisk offered to stabilize the carbonite and keep Solo alive in return for Fett killing Lictor. The bounty hunter had to agree to the contract as he didn't have the funds on hand to meet the Doc's strict "credits up front" policy.[1]
As Fett couldn't assassinate her directly due to the Hutt's tight security, Ragon suggested that he confront her in the arena. In order not to bring the ire of the Hutts on himself, Fett temporarily disguised his distinctive armor with a coat of black nano-spray paint and entered the arena under the alias Jango.[1]
Fett easily defeated all comers and, after a more difficult fight, slew Lictor.[1]
