Velken Tezeri was a human male arms dealer who took work as a guard for the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure at his palace on Tatooine. He was one of five guards assigned to the skiff carrying Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca to the Great Pit of Carkoon in 4 ABY.
During the failed execution, Skywalker broke free and turned on the guards; Tezeri slipped from the skiff, fell to the sand, and rolled into the mouth of the Sarlacc. He was portrayed by stuntman Larry Holt in Return of the Jedi.
