He only appeared for one second in The Empire Strikes Back, but Willrow Hood became a Star Wars icon. Not for any reason in particular, however. Just because he looked kind of funny running across Cloud City with what Star Wars fans have long since settled on is an "ice cream maker."

A camtono, actually. The word briefly made it out into the world at Star Wars Celebration earlier this year when, in an extended clip from The Mandalorian that never made it online, Werner Herzog's character shows the titular bounty hunter a piece of beskar - an ancient, valuable, Mandalorian alloy - and tells him he'll give him a camtono of it when he completes the mission.
