Dreddon was a Hutt crimelord and arms dealer based on Tatooine.
[edit] Biography
During the last decades of the Galactic Republic, Dreddon was considered one of the most powerful arms dealers in the Outer Rim Territories. After the death of Wallanooga in 32 BBY, Dreddon's resources increased as he folded much of the former's gun running business into his own operations. Despite his girth and the size of his sales area, Dreddon personally traveled to sell his weapons.
One such client was the Toydarian Watto. This sale resulted in the ability for Anakin Skywalker to salvage some pieces of the arms surplus (which were Tyrian manufactured) in Watto's junkyard and later use them for the air brakes of his final Podracer, eventually setting him free from his slavery.
Selling his wares to a variety of clients, Dreddon developed an intense and deadly rivalry with Black Sun Vigo Antonin. In 27 BBY, the pair floated mutual bounties, which were accepted by Zam Wesell and Jango Fett respectively. The bounty hunters executed their contracts effectively, which resulted in neither receiving their promised pay.
