Meetra Surik encountered some small camps of salvagers on the planet Dantooine, who tried to live by selling the Jedi artifacts they had found in the ruins of the Jedi Enclave in the years after Darth Malak's attack. These salvagers generally held beings with regular jobs in contempt, and would have been particularly pleased if the settlers had been driven off the planet. Particularly aggressive scavengers operated in the immediate aftermath of the Imperial Civil War, some of whom maintained small private armies to assist in their operations.
