Bannamu was a male Patrolian pickpocket living on the planet Coruscant during the Clone Wars. Bannamu managed to steal a lightsaber from Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano's belt and subsequently sold it to the Trandoshan Nack Movers. Soon, Tano, with the help of Jedi Master Tera Sinube, tracked Bannamu down to his hideout in the Spider Arms Hostel and forced him to reveal the whereabouts of her weapon.
