A'Vor was a male Tusken Raider who was a member of A'Yark's tribe. He had a twin brother, and was the cousin of A'Koba.[1]
Biography[]
A'Vor[1] lived on the Outer Rim world of Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War[2] as part of Chieftain A'Yark's tribe.[1] Shortly before the Battle of Yavin,[2] A'Vor and his twin brother, joined by his cousin, A'Koba, killed a juvenile krayt dragon as a rite of passage into adulthood. He then claimed to A'Yark that he would be able to kill the adult krayts as well.[1]
After A'Koba knocked Luke Skywalker unconscious, he and his twin brother[2] and their cousin[1] A'Koba began searching Skywalker's landspeeder. They were scared off by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, who mimicked the call of a krayt dragon to spook A'Vor and his fellow Tusken Raiders into fleeing.[2]
