Anis was a male Anzati who, prior to 36 BBY, had become a clan leader amongst his species. Whilst in this position he was indebted to the criminal Wallanooga the Hutt and agreed to train Aurra Sing, the Near-Human slave the Hutt had purchased, as an assassin. The Anzati assassin he assigned to train Sing, Torgo Tahn, later killed Anis with the aid of two of his students.
