Gonna take a wild guess and theorize that this is related to Timothy Zahn, who wrote the Thrawn trilogy of Star Wars books. 
(Hi Darth!)
(Hi Darth!)
Definitely! I'm already making a mental list of all the characters that could be called associates, though I'm patiently waiting for more clues.
SOMEONE is hyped for Ahsoka…
Crucially…are we looking at New Thrawn or Heir to the Empire Thrawn! 😜

Well, clues are unlocked. 
I haven't read the legends stuff, but I did some digging on the wookieepedia and (oddly there is a lot of star wars characters named after fans) I think the one we are looking for is Wadewarn
Okay so, this looks like a Star Wars Symbol, specifically the Resistance one!
God that picture is huge. Well, uh, I think we may be looking at a character that isn't a villain? I dunno. I'm rusty with my Star Wars.
I tried Wadewarn, and Wade Warren, who does indeed (showing up in a dinner scene) make a lot of sense, but it didn't work.
Congrats on solving this symbol! The answer was "Wadewarn"
For those of you wondering how this answer could be arrived at, here's a quick explanation.

The line he gets mentioned in is "Good evening, all. May I present Calrissian and Solo, who\'ll be dining with us. Three of my associates, Wadewarn, Chin and Ghent. Ghent is the slicer I mentioned, possibly the best in the business. And of course, you've already met Mara Jade."
Why didn't it work when I put it in, I wonder? ^^'

It broke but I saw you put in the right one so I did it manually
This was a good one, difficult for me for a Star Wars riddle, and I don't know how Wixiany did it, to be honest, my detective work found barely anything on fan-named characters. Thank you for the mechanicwork, Kim!

Yay, we got it!! I haven't heard of the character before, so I did a bit of a mechanical search? I opened the page for the first book, opened the list of all characters and went through all of them till I found the one that fit. And this guy did! The Behind the scenes section usually explained how the characters were named and such, so I always jumped there first, looking for a mention of a fan.

That does explain it! I was going onto Wookieepedia last night trying to figure out how you found him so fast! I'm going to have to remember that next time. Nicely done!
