Het "Patches" Patchateeka is a Jawa from Mos Eisley, Tatooine. Born on a sandcrawler that was visiting the city, Het earned his nickname at a young age when he tore his robes while assisting the rest of his clan defend their sandcrawler against a krayt dragon. Despite trading with non-Jawas and understanding many languages, Het cannot speak Basic. Instead, when talking with non-Jawas, he uses the Jawa Trade Language. Het is an accomplished repairman and inventor, and has been known to construct a wide variety of useful tools, weapons, and droids. Often times he can be found in his shop aboard his clan's sandcrawler. When the sandcrawler stops for any reason, you can expect Het to be out and about testing his new inventions. Het has also been known to use his knowledge as a prospector to discover mineral veins for mining companies.

Early Childhood

Het's clan is a typical Jawa trading clan, one that travels between cities in a sandcrawler. Before he was born, his clan was comprised of thirteen Jawas, all adults from various other clans. Both of his parents originated from a clan that was nearly destroyed by a krayt dragon. They fled the sandcrawler and sought refuge with their current clan and soon after, Het was born.

The fourteenth Jawa of his clan, Het worked hard since a very young age to obtain necessary skills to assist his clan. He learned to understand and write Basic, Huttese, and other languages. Het became an author and wrote several books detailing life in the clan, aboard the sandcrawler, and fictional tales of heroic Jawas.

Within a year of learning Basic, Het authored "A Jawa's Life", a detailed biography of himself. Of course, the book wasn't more than one hundred pages long, but he was proud of his work. He continued to write, and later he authored "Jik and the Dragon", a tale about a Jawa that dedicates his life to killing the krayt dragon that slayed the character's parents. Other tales Het authored include "The Sandcrawler", "Travel Guide to Mos Eisley", and "All the Chief's Jawas".
