Corwen Dymek was a member of the Dymek family that owned the Dymek arms company. In 58ABY, Corwen was the only surviving member of the family, after an attack on his (unknown) homeworld by a Sith army. He fled aboard a YZ-775 freighter, Dymek One, taking as much of the business materials as he could, including the blueprints for all Dymek products, and a fair sum of credits. He waited for a while at the Night Jedi Citadel while his factory was being constructed, and during this time, came to quite like the place, and set up his home and an office there.
