-->''"He's no good to me dead."''

With his customized Mandalorian armor, deadly weaponry, and silent demeanor, Boba Fett was one of the most feared bounty hunters in the galaxy. A genetic clone of his "father," bounty hunter Jango Fett, Boba learned combat and martial skills from a young age. Over the course of his career, which included contracts for the Empire and the criminal underworld, he became a legend.

[[http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2avk5i/hi_reddit_jonathan_rinzler_star_wars_scholar_and/ciz7w38?context=3 He didn't die in the Sarlaac pit and escaped from the beast]].
----
* AlasPoorYorick: He picks up his (sort of) father's helmet in Episode II after he's decapitated.
* AndIMustScream: If Jabba the Hutt is to be believed (unless [[ForTheEvulz he's just trying to scare his enemies before he feeds them to it]], but it was definitely true in the ''Legends'' stories), he may have suffered this during his time inside the Sarlacc's stomach (which is said to keep its prey alive for over a thousand years while it digests them). Luckily for Boba, this didn't stick, as he was {{Badass}} enough to get out of it.
* AntiVillain: As a child, he's bad, but it's hard not to sympathize with him considering how much of a good parent [[AffablyEvil Jango Fett]] turned out to be, and that he was killed before the poor kid's eyes. When he actually tries to get revenge on Mace Windu, he states that he doesn't want any harm to befall his "brothers" (the Clones) and is only working with [[TheSociopath Aurra Sing]] because she's a means to an end. After resolving his issues with Mace Windu, he progressively becomes a straight-up, brutal villain.
* AvengingTheVillain: His goal in his first appearance in ''The Clone Wars'' was to avenge his father, Jango, by killing Mace Windu. He seems to have gotten over this after his assassination attempt fails, and that Mace tells him that he didn't mean to hurt Boba, but did what he had to in the midst of a war.
* {{Badass}}: Not only is he a highly skilled bounty hunter, tracking down the ''Millennium Falcon'' and showing a willingness to stand up to [[TheDreaded Darth Vader]], but he managed to escape the Sarlaac, which had, up to that point, been treated as a particularly horrifying death sentence.
* BadassNormal: Name another non-Jedi who can take a confrontational tone with Darth Vader like he did at Cloud City, and ''live''!
* BastardUnderstudy: To his father, Jango. The emphasis is on understudy in this case.
* BountyHunter: Followed in his father's footsteps and became the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy. Although, specifically, "Bounty Killer" is implictly a better term; he has such a reputation for bringing in his quarry dead that Darth Vader specifically feels the need to single him out and warn him "no disintegrations".
* BreakoutCharacter: Boba Fett became so popular, that a decent chunk of the prequel trilogy's second film was dedicated to his own coming of story. His father became the sole genetic basis for the Grand Army of the Republic, one of the single most influential factions in the entire Star Wars saga. He was popular enough that he was even digitally added into a restored scene of ''A New Hope'' when Lucas released the Special Editions of the original trilogy.
* BullyingADragon[=/=]MuggingTheMonster: He manages to pull both at once when he starts shouting at Ventress. Though he may not have known her reputation, it was plainly obvious that she had lightsabers she was proficient in using and was a superior combatant, having easily bested an opponent he struggled against.
* [[BaldOfEvil Buzzcut of Bounty Hunting]]: Acquired one while in prison during the Clone Wars.
* CanonImmigrant: His first appearance was in ''The Star Wars Holiday Special'', but his first appearance in a canonical story is in ''The Empire Strikes Back''.
* CharacterDevelopment: Over the course of the Bounty Hunter arc in ''The Clone Wars'', he realizes that the process of getting revenge leads him to do terrible things that even he is uncomfortable with, and he decides to stop hunting Mace Windu - even though he refuses to forgive him for killing his father. Of course, he does go on to do more morally-questionable things after that, but probably not for revenge.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: The distinctive shape of his helmet's eyepiece was reputedly based on Creator/ClintEastwood's steely glare. Accordingly, Jeremy Bulloch said he played Fett explicitly as Clint Eastwood, mimicking Eastwood's distinctive body language from the Film/DollarsTrilogy.
* ComingOfAgeStory: ''Attack Of The Clones'' and the character's first story arc in ''The Clone Wars'' serve as this in order to explain how he became an extremely effective bounty hunter.
* ConsummateProfessional: As an adult, Boba never once loses his cool or acts unprofessionally.
* CoolHelmet: Based on Ralph [=McQuarrie=]'s unused concepts for Stormtroopers. In ''The Clone Wars'', he had a different one of non-Mandalorian origin after getting out of prison.
* CoolStarship: The ''Slave I''.
* TheDragon: To Darth Vader in ''The Empire Strikes Back'' and Jabba the Hutt in ''Return Of The Jedi''.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: An example that became a non-fatal variant via a {{Retcon}}. Boba Fett was ultimately defeated like a punk in ''Return Of The Jedi'', being hit in his jet pack by a blinded Han Solo before crashing into Jabba's sail barge and falling into the Sarlaac's mouth. Considering that ''The Empire Strikes Back'' hyped him up as one of the most dangerous characters in the setting, this defeat comes across as surprisingly abrupt.
* EnfanteTerrible: Was a trained killer at ten.
* EnigmaticMinion: To Vader and Jabba in the films, where his motivations (beyond money) and character remain unexplored, but his appearance makes him stand out.
* EvenEvilHasStandards:
** During his vendetta against Mace Windu, he didn't want anyone else to die.
** Curiously, though, he was perfectly willing to let a girl be sold into slavery as some warlord's bride while ''Ventress'' couldn't go through with it. To be fair, he didn't seem to realize what the girl's brother wanted to do with her; he thought he was still "protecting" her from him.
* EvilSoundsDeep: When voiced by Jason Wingreen.
* TheFaceless: In the ''The Empire Strikes Back'' and ''Return of the Jedi''.
* FauxActionGuy: Despite being portrayed as a total badass in the EU, in the films, he really doesn't do much of anything spectacular or badass.
* FreudianExcuse: Witnessing his father's beheading did bad things to Boba's ideas of who the heroes and villains are.
* GunsAkimbo: During the Clone Wars. Like father, like son, it seems.
* HeartbrokenBadass[=/=]YouKilledMyFather: When Mace killed Jango, Boba completely lost it, [[ItsPersonal setting out on]] a quest for vengance.
* HiredGuns: Which seems to be a common trait for bounty hunters in the ''Star Wars'' universe. Jabba the Hutt seems to be one of Boba's more frequent employers in this capacity.
* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten: Aurra Sing tries to make him shoot a clone (who, let's not forget, is basically his brother). He refuses, so she remorselessly murders the clone in front of him.
* InformedAbility: Boba's [[FauxActionGuy status as the best bounty hunter in the galaxy]] is pretty iffy in the films (either that, or the galaxy's bounty hunters all suck). The canon outside of the Original Trilogy does a better job of justifying his title. For instance, he's able to pilot the ''Slave I'' well in ''Attack Of The Clones'', even managing to distract Obi-Wan with it long enough so that his father could escape, and ''The Clone Wars'' has shown him as a capable bounty hunter in his youth, but not up to Cad Bane's caliber yet (he was no match for Force users at the time, as Asajj Ventress demonstrated, and Bane was still the top gun in the galaxy at the time).
* IronButtMonkey: Boba never acts with anything other than stoicness... but is repeatedly humiliated through the canon. Most prominently with the repeated failures of his plans in ''The Clone Wars'' and his infamous "death" in ''Return of the Jedi''.
* JetPack: Uses one, as is traditional for Mandalorian warriors.
* LegacyCharacter: In three ways.
** Boba Fett's ImpossiblyCoolClothes were confirmed to be Mandalorian battle armor in supplementary material. It mentioned in passing that the Mandalorians were a ProudWarriorRace that had been eliminated by the Jedi Order: the implication was that Boba Fett either ''was'' one of the last Mandalorians or had acquired the armor in some OffscreenMomentOfAwesome.
** The prequels made him more clearly and directly a LegacyCharacter with the introduction of his parent Jango Fett.
** ''Aftermath'' shows that, after Fett mysteriously abandoned his armor, someone else took it and is using it to serve as a lawman on Tatooine.
* MalevolentMaskedMan: Well, "malevolent" might be pushing it, but he definitely acts as an antagonist in the original trilogy, and he's certainly masked for all of his screentime there.
* MaskPower: His CoolHelmet doubles as an equally cool mask.
* NeverFoundTheBody: His armor is recovered by a scavenger in ''Aftermath'', but his fate beyond that is not clear.
* NoodleIncident: ''"No disintegrations."'' The reason for Vader specifying this to Fett has yet to be explained.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: He doesn't really care if Han survives the carbon freezing process or not. All Fett cared about was the potential loss of his payday, and he was satisfied with Vader's promise of compensation from the Empire if Solo died.
* ParentalAbandonment: Aside from Jango getting killed, Aurra Sing (not a parent, but a parental figure) fled the coop when rescuing Boba would have meant getting herself caught.
* PragmaticVillainy: He does not want Han Solo dead since Jabba will find no use in a dead Han.
* ProfessionalKiller: He comes off as one, although we never actually see him carry out an assassination in any of his appearances, and his one attempted assassination is a personal matter.
* PunchClockVillain: The Galactic Civil War doesn't mean a thing to Boba; he just wants to get paid.
* TheQuietOne: He never says much as an older bounty hunter in the films.
* RevengeBeforeReason: Debatable, since Jango attacked Mace first.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Blowing up an entire starship to get to ''one'' man certainly qualifies, even if it was [[TheCorrupter Aurra]] who told him to do it.
* RobotBuddy: His personal assassin droid, C-21 Highsinger, was described by the creators as being to him what Chewbacca is to Han Solo.
* ScarredEquipment: His armor has numerous dents, scratches, and battle scars.
* SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome: When he was captured after the Season 2 finale of ''The Clone Wars'', he looked about 10-11 at the most. When he returned in Season 4, he seemed to be at least 15. The TimeSkip in Season 3 cannot account for this, since the Clone Wars only lasted only two and a half years start to finish. The war is well under way by the time of his capture and is not even close to ending when he escapes. In addition, Boba is noted to be a pure clone when introduced, lacking any growth acceleration since Jango raised him as a son.
* StartOfDarkness: Watching Jango get cut down by Mace Windu.
* TheStoic: As an older bounty hunter.
* TeensAreMonsters: He was an assassin for hire by his early teens.
* TookALevelInBadass: He's '''much''' more of a badass in the Original Trilogy than he was in ''Attack of the Clones'' or ''The Clone Wars''. In ''Dark Disciple'', he and a group of other bounty hunters were able to successfully apprehend Count Dooku, when beforehand, he proved no match for Asajj Ventress, suggesting he took that level late in the Clone War. And then, come the time of the Marvel comic, he's brutally efficient to a degree where he has thoroughly earned his reputation as the best bounty hunter in the Galaxy.
* TragicKeepsake: ZigZagged with Jango's helmet: he takes it as one in ''Attack of the Clones'', but, in ''The Clone Wars'', he uses it to lure Windu into a trap and blows it up.
* WalkingArmoury: His suit of armor is pretty tricked out to say the least.
* WeaponOfChoice: ''EE-3'' carbine rifle.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Shown to be this in ''Attack Of The Clones''.
* YouKilledMyFather: He goes after Mace for revenge. This ends about as badly as you'd expect, given that Mace is only slightly less powerful than Yoda, and Boba's only in his middle teens. After the confrontation, Boba moves on and focuses on his career as a bounty hunter.
* YoungGun: During the Clone Wars.

!!Jango Fett
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jango_fett_sw_2698.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:300:''"I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe."'']]

->'''Portrayed by:''' Creator/TemueraMorrison
->'''Appears in:''' ''Film/AttackOfTheClones''

-->''"Always a pleasure to meet a Jedi."''

In the final years of the Republic, Jango Fett was regarded as the best bounty hunter in the galaxy. A proficient marksman and unarmed combatant, Fett was covered in a sleek armored suit that concealed his scarred face. His combat gear featured an arsenal of weaponry, including retractable wrist blades, a snare, dual blaster pistols and other more exotic tools of the trade. In combat, Jango used his harnessed jetpack to gain the advantage of speed and height over his enemies. The backpack also carried a nasty surprise -- an explosive rocket could be launched from it. For interstellar travel, Jango traveled aboard his well-worn starship, ''Slave I''.
----
* AffablyEvil: He's a mercenary who will kill without hesitation, but is also a loving father to Boba. If one of his former associates, SpacePirate Hondo Ohnaka is to be believed, he was said to be an honorable man.
* ArmorIsUseless: Averted; Jango's armor is the only reason why he's able to take as much punishment as he does. Whether it's a beating from Obi-Wan, damage from a jetpack malfunction, or a blow from a reek, Jango's armor can take it.
* {{Badass}}: A much more legitimate example than Boba in the films, given his track record: He takes on Obi-Wan on even footing, kills a Jedi Master who was attacking the stands in the Geonosian arena, takes out the reek in a single shot, and manages to get the drop on Mace Windu twice, [[BadassNormal all without Force powers, cybernetics, or alien abilities]].
** Jango Fett is the only normal human in movie canon to have killed Jedi in open combat, and fought Obiwan (a Jedi Master) to a draw. There's a reason he was picked to be the prime human for the clones.
* BodyguardingABadass: Serves as Dooku's bodyguard during the initial phase of the Jedi assault on the arena. Dooku, of course, needs protecting the way [[FatBastard Jabba]] needs more food.
* ConsummateProfessional: Jango is all business when he's on the job; in the arena on Geonosis, he never once breaks his steely demeanor, even when Windu has a lightsaber at his throat.
* CoolHelmet: The same type that Boba would later wear in the original trilogy. After Jango's death, Boba used his helmet in a trap to kill Mace Windu, blowing it in half in the process.
* CoolStarship: The ''Slave I''.
* DotingParent: One of his [[PetTheDog redeeming qualities]] is his loving relationship to Boba.
* TheDragon: Dooku's first before General Grievous and all the others in the [[Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse Expanded Universe]].
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He reserved an unaltered clone of himself (Boba) to raise as his son.
* EvilMentor: To his son, whom he raises to be as ruthless and greedy as himself.
* {{Expy}}: Of Boba Fett, sharing his look, attitude, and reputation. Justified in-universe by Jango being Boba's "father" and mentor.
* FamedInStory: Regarded as the greatest bounty hunter of his time during the prequel trilogy.
* {{Greed}}: Jango's main motivation is money, and he never seems to get enough. Despite being paid handsomely for his role in creating the clone army, he continues to take jobs, eventually taking on a permanent position with Count Dooku.
* GunsAkimbo: With his twin blaster pistols.
* TheGunslinger: Takes down Jedi with nothing but a pair of blasters, complete with GunTwirling.
* HeroKiller: Jango comes with an earthshaking reputation and largely lives up to it, fighting Obi-Wan to a draw, killing a Jedi Master and Council member during the arena battle, and actually getting off a few shots at Mace Windu before being slain.
* HiredGun: Jango's not adverse to mercenary work, and takes paychecks from the Republic and the Separatists alike (though both jobs he does in the film were paid for by the same man, Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus).
* JetPack: One of his assets, which he uses to good effect in battle against Obi-Wan, though not so much against Mace Windu.
* MentorOccupationalHazard: A villainous example to Boba, whom he mentors to follow in his footsteps, before being slain by Mace Windu.
* OffWithHisHead: Courtesy of Mace Windu.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Jango doesn't care about politics or ideology. All that matters to him is getting paid.
* PoisonedWeapon: His saberdart, which he uses on his partner Zam Wesell.
* PragmaticVillainy: He only kills Zam Wesell to ensure the safety of his employer's plans.
* PredecessorVillain: To Boba Fett, who gains his armor, methodology, and title of "best bounty hunter in the galaxy".
* ProfessionalKiller: While his official title may be "bounty hunter", his role in ''Attack Of The Clones'' is to act as Dooku's personal hitman.
* PunchclockVillain: Jango's in it for the credits and his son. While he did try to kill Obiwan, it was to cover his own escape, not out of any personal grudge.
* TheRival: [[WordOfGod According to Filoni]], Jango and Cad Bane had an on-going rivalry to decide who's the best BountyHunter around, and Jango's death had left Bane disappointed that they wouldn't get to settle it.
* ShoutOut: Jango Fett is named after {{Django}}.
* TrulySingleParent: His son was cloned directly from his genetic material on Kamino.
* VillainousValor: Trying to take on Mace Windu, the second most powerful Jedi in the Order, might not have been Jango's smartest move, but it was certainly his bravest.
* VillainProtagonist [[HeroOfAnotherStory Of Another Story]]: Specifically, of [[VideoGame/BountyHunter Star Wars: Bounty Hunter]].
* WalkingArmory: He's got a missile on his JetPack, a pair of dart-throwers in his knees, a flamethrower in his arm, a grappling hook in the other one, a blade that can deploy from his forearm, and his two blaster pistols.
* WeaponOfChoice: Two blaster pistols.

->'''Portrayed by:''' Leanna Walsman
->'''Appears in:''' ''Film/AttackOfTheClones''

A Clawdite (or Changeling as they're also called) bounty hunter and killer-for-hire, and associate of Jango Fett. Zam was brought in as a subcontractor when Jango was hired to assassinate Senator Amidala. Failing two attempts and captured by Obi-Wan Kenobi, she was killed by Jango.
----
* BadassDriver: She's a mean speeder pilot, as evidenced during her skillful evasion of Anakin in the busy airlanes of Coruscant.
* BilingualBonus: Any fan with a grasp of knowledge of the languages of ''Star Wars'' can tell you that her last words in Huttese translate to "Bounty hunter slimeball..."
* ColdSniper: One of her weapons is a sniper rifle, which she uses on Obi-Wan.
* DarkActionGirl: She's a skilled assassin and marksman who gets tied up with the Separatists.
* HisNameIs: Right before she drops her client's name, she's silenced by a toxic dart.
* LizardFolk: Her [[ShapeshifterDefaultForm Clawdite form]] is a lizard-like alien.
* ProfessionalKiller: Like Jango, Zam appears as an assassin rather than a bounty hunter in ''Attack Of The Clones''.
* JustFollowingOrders: Uses this excuse while being interrogated by Obi-Wan.
* [[HeKnowsTooMuch She Knows Too Much]]: Murdered by Jango via a toxic saberdart to stop her from talking.
* ThisWasHerTrueForm: Reverts to her Clawdite form after Jango kills her, though she momentarily reveals it during the ChaseScene in ''Attack Of The Clones''.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: She is a Clawdite changeling who can assume any form, making her perfect for discreet operations. However, the only form she's ever seen to take is a female human form, and she never makes an attempt to change it even among a crowd of strangers where Obi-Wan and Anakin believe her to be at her most dangerous.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Makes two failed attempts on Senator Amidala's life, resulting in her death at her client's hands.

->'''Appears in:''' ''Film/ThePhantomMenace''[[note]]Deleted scene[[/note]] | ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]'' | ''Film/ANewHope''

-->''"Going somewhere, Solo?"''

A Rodian bounty hunter in the employ of Jabba the Hutt. He attempted to capture Han on Tatooine, but ended up being killed by him.
----
* BilingualDialogue: He talks in his native language when confronting Han, but in his appearance in ''The Clone Wars'', he speaks Basic.
* BondVillainStupidity: Even in the original cut of the movie, in which he didn't fire at Han and miss at point-blank range, he still made the mistake of gloating to Han instead of just shooting him right after he refuses to come with him.
* BountyHunter: Albeit, a horribly inefficient one.
* ButtMonkey: In addition to being such a lousy shot, none of Greedo's jobs ever seem to work out for him.
* CallForward: In his deleted scene in ''The Phantom Menace'', his friend warns him that he'll meet a bad end if he continues to act out in violence. Greedo should have listened.
* TheDogShotFirst: In the Special Edition, he tries to shoot Han when he realizes the conversation with him isn't going so well. He misses, of course.
* EpicFail: The Special Edition has him fire at Han Solo, but he misses by a significant margin. '''At point-blank range.'''
* EvilDebtCollector: Tries to bring in Han for his debt to Jabba.
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: In the re-releases, in which [[HanShotFirst Han didn't shoot first]]. Given how Greedo opened fire at ''point blank range'' and missed, he could probably ''benefit'' from some time spent at the academy.
* LittleGreenMen: The size of a human though. And he looks more like a tapir than a hominid.
* NeverBringAGunToAKnifeFight: Used against him in "Sphere of Influence". After holding him and his son at gunpoint, Baron Papanoida takes Greedo hostage while holding a knife up to his neck (and he didn't get to shoot at all at that point).
* SmugSnake: He thinks he's got Han cornered, unaware that the guy prepared beforehand to put a big smoking hole in his chest while he was gloating to him.

-->''"If you got a problem with Boba, you got a problem with me."''

A Trandoshan bounty hunter. During the Clone Wars he worked alongside Aurra Sing and Boba Fett, and went to prison with the latter after he was captured. He later escaped with him and joined his band of hunters. During the Rebellion, Bossk was one of several bounty hunters hired to hunt down Han Solo.
----
* AscendedExtra: Appeared briefly in ''The Empire Strikes Back'' as one of several bounty hunters hired by Darth Vader. In ''The Clone Wars'', he appears in several episodes and gets some development and history with Boba.
* BigGuyLittleGuy: The Big guy to Boba's little.
* CanonImmigrant: Not Bossk himself, but rather his starship in "Bounty", the ''Hound's Tooth'', originated in the ExpandedUniverse novel, ''Literature/TalesOfTheBountyHunters''.
* CoolStarship: As mentioned above, the ''Hound's Tooth''.
* TheDragon: He seems to be one for Boba Fett in Season 4 of ''The Clone Wars''.
* GutturalGrowler: As a Trandoshan, he does growl a lot when he speaks.
* HellishPupils: As is to be expected from a humanoid lizard.
* LizardFolk: He's a Trandoshan.
* KarmaHoudini: While he does end up in jail for helping Boba during his quest for vengeance against Windu, he escapes along with Boba only after about a year or even less.
* OlderSidekick: To Boba.
* PsychoForHire: Has shades of this in "Lethal Trackdown." Aurra Sing orders Bossk to kill the hostages if she gives the word during a meeting with the Jedi. When she's unable to contact him (due to the comm antenna embedded in her skull getting cut), he decides to kill the hostages on his own volition.
-->'''Bossk:''' Listen up, boys. If Aurra doesn't report back soon, I'm gone... and you're both fried.
* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: He is a Trandoshan and a psychotic bounty hunter.
* {{Sssssnaketalk}}: Particularly noticeable in the ''Darth Vader'' comics, which add quite a few s's to his dialogue.
* SuddenlyVoiced: He didn't say a word in ''The Empire Strikes Back'', and works in ''Star Wars Legends'' indicated that he didn't speak Galactic Basic, but in the Trandoshan language. In ''The Clone Wars'', it was revealed that he spoke Basic after all.
* UndyingLoyalty: In ''The Clone Wars'', he was protective of Boba Fett. [[PetTheDog He even stands up for him in prison]].

A skilled human bounty hunter who likes using superior firepower over finesse. He worked with Boba Fett during the Clone Wars, but later competed against him during the Rebellion after being one of several bounty hunters hired by the Empire to find Han Solo.
----
* AscendedExtra: Much like Bossk, his first appearance was a wordless cameo in ''The Empire Strikes Back''. In ''The Clone Wars'', while he doesn't have an especially large role, he at least has a voice actor and sees some action.
* BadassNormal: Not only his he proficient with blasters and bombs, he's also formidable in hand-to-hand combat against [[{{Ninja}} Kage warriors]], even if he is the first one to get knocked off the tram in "Bounty".
** He puts up quite a fight against [[spoiler: Chewbacca, although that's mostly due to the tech he carries. The poor Wookiee would have been killed had Han not arrived in the nick of time.]]

She, however, survived the crash. She also worked with Cad Bane's posse during the Senate Hostage Crisis.

* {{Cyborg}}: She has a communications antenna embedded in her skull.
* DarkActionGirl: Oh yeah. She took on Ahsoka and managed to injure her.
* DeadpanSnarker: She has a dry enough wit, to make even Hondo shut up for a moment:
-->'''Hondo:''' *talking to Castas about working with Aurra* Couldn't handle her, could you? Well, don't be ashamed. You're not the first man to bail out from under her command.
-->'''Aurra:''' He (Hondo) speaks from experience.

!!Cad Bane
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cad_bane_sw_6808.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/CoreyBurton
->'''Appears in:''' ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]''

-->''"I'm in control. I make the rules now."''

A Duros bounty hunter who became the top hired gun in the galaxy after the death of Jango Fett, he often took jobs for the Separatist Alliance. He'll take any job... for the right price.
----
* TheAce: Of the Bounty Hunters during the Clone War.
* AxCrazy: Downplayed. He's more ruthless than crazy.
* {{Badass}}: Regularly takes on Jedi Knights without the aid of the Force, and more often than not the least he manages is to escape them unharmed.
* BadassLongcoat: He sports a very spiffy trench coat.
* BadassNormal: He doesn't have any superhuman powers or abilities and still holds his own against Jedi.
* BadBoss: He sacrificed his little helper droid during a raid on the Jedi temple, using him as an unwitting suicide bomber.
* BaldOfEvil: Although Duros are bald by default.
* BloodKnight: Cad Bane has a tendency to laugh and smile while blasting everyone dead.
* TheCameo: In ''Rebels'' Sabine has a graffiti in her room on the ''Ghost'', depiting his head being fired as a rocket.
* CombatPragmatist: The key to how he holds his own against Jedi Knights.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: He was based on Creator/LeeVanCleef, while voice-wise, Creator/CoreyBurton based it on Peter Lorre and fellow voice actor Creator/LanceHenriksen.
* ConsummateLiar: He can be convincingly deceptive. For instance, he was able to convince a Rodian mother to hand over her Force-sensitive baby on the claim that there were Jedi impostors roaming galaxy kidnapping children (which happened to be exactly what he was doing).
* CrazyPrepared: His assault on the Galactic Senate is proof enough of this.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: He knows what are Jedi capable of and how to deal with them.
* DeadpanSnarker: He's got his moments, such as when the Hutt Council was arguing over whether to continue hiring him to do their work.
--> '''Cad Bane:''' I'm tired of getting paid too, but not that tired.
* TheDreaded: He was considered the most lethal and feared bounty hunter in the galaxy during the Clone War.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: In his debut episode, he and his team effortlessly infiltrates the Senate, and takes numerous Senators hostages. When he declares them to be his prisoners, one of the Senators states that he won't tolerate this "insolence", and walks past him, trying to leave. Bane promptly shoots him InTheBack, without even turning to look.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He saves Rako Hardeen from dying in "The Box", but only because Moralo Eval fixed the last challenge so he would lose and Bane thought Hardeen at least deserved a fair fight.
-->'''Cad Bane:''' If you're gonna kill him, do it like a man!
* FauxAffablyEvil: He sometimes acts like this, such as when he takes over the Senate. He's initially very calm and polite to his victims before murdering one of them off-handedly,
* GunsAkimbo: His (initial) weapons of choice.
* IndyPloy: Master practitioner of it, alongside XanatosSpeedChess.
* [[JetPack Jet Boots]]: Which he can use to match the Jedi's Force-assisted athleticism.
* KarmaHoudini: He tends to finish jobs without suffering any comeuppance and even when he does get captured, it's not for very long. When it seemed he landed in prison, it turns out he deliberately did so as part of another job, and it's implied that he's been imprisoned and [[CardboardPrison has broken out before]]. Even with his last appearance being arrested on-screen, it's unlikely he stayed captured after that and there were plans to have him in a future story arc that didn't get aired due to the series' cancellation.
* KnightOfCerebus: His debut episode "Hostage Crisis" marks the first point when the series became DarkerAndEdgier.
* LivingLegend: Count Dooku once gathered all the greatest bounty hunters together and introduced them with their name, any titles they had, some claim to fame, etc. When he came to Cad Bane, he simply says "Cad Bane, who needs no introduction."
* MonochromaticEyes: His eyes are [[RedEyesTakeWarning solid red]], a common trait for his species.
* NiceHat: A broad-rimmed fedora. Taken to extremes later on, where he insists on getting a new nice hat after losing his first one even though it makes him stand out, then ''kills'' another bounty hunter for his fedora because he thought it was nicer.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: This line sums his work ethic best:
-->'''Cad Bane:''' Makes no difference to me, so long as I get paid.
* OralFixation: The creators even discuss how well having a toothpick works for him on the DVD feature about the Rako Hardeen arc. He also threatened to slit someone's throat with said toothpick.
* PragmaticVillainy: He will promptly retreat when there's nothing to win. No need for pointless antagonizing.
* PsychoForHire
-->'''Cad Bane:''' ''(after finding Ziro the Hutt's corpse)'' I hate it when someone does my job.
* TheRival: [[WordOfGod According to Filoni]], Bane and Jango Fett had an on-going rivalry to decide who's the best BountyHunter around, and Jango's death had left Bane disappointed that they wouldn't get to settle it. Filoni also said that Bane's reason for taking-up a mentor role for Boba in the cancelled Bounty Hunter-arc of ''The Clone Wars'' was that he hoped that Boba could take Jango's place, and settle the rivalry indirectly.
* RefugeInAudacity: The trick he used to kidnap the Rodian infant in "Children of the Force": he disguised himself as a Jedi, and claimed he had to take the child from her mother, because "impostors" posing as Jedi had been kidnapping other children!
* SadisticChoice: One of his tactics for getting the upper hand on Jedi.
* SmugSnake: PlayedWith. Despite being extremely smug, he lacks the usual incompetence of a SmugSnake and is one of the most competent villains on the show. This might be an additional result of being DangerouslyGenreSavvy.
* TheStrategist: [[TheAce Part of what makes him so good at his job]] is that he attempts to plan for almost every possible eventuality. While he is also excellent at XanatosSpeedChess, he prefers to not have to resort to it.
* SuperWristGadget: Part of his original arsenal was a box on his wrist, that worked as a communicator, a taser, a multifunction remote control, a flamethrower and somesort of pistol. After breaking Moralo Eval out of prison, he acquired another, bit tamer version, that sprayed stungas to his opponent's face, and also worked as a [[GrapplingHookPistol grappling-cabel-launcher]].
* TheSociopath: High-functioning enough so that it doesn't get in the way of his work, but he is most definitely one of these.
* TheUnfettered: Once Bane has taken a job, he will do ''anything'' to fulfill it, and by extension, get his payday.
* [[HeroicWillpower Villainous Willpower]]: He's so strong willed, he was able to resist a JediMindTrick simultaneously attempted by Windu, Obi-Wan and Anakin. Subverted in that, afterwards he chose to comply with their demand, rather than having to endure the experience again.
* WouldHurtAChild: His only response to Darth Sidious hiring him to kidnap innocent children was to remark that the crime seemed "small time" for [[BigBad the likes of Sidious]], and that it made no difference to him as long as he was paid for it.
* XanatosSpeedChess: He's proven to be very capable at modifying his plans on the fly.

[[folder:Todo 360]]
!!Todo 360
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/todo_360_sw_8949.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SethGreen
->'''Appears in:''' ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]''

-->''"I am a techno-service droid, not a butler droid."''

Cad Bane's techno-service droid and an excellent hacker. He does not like it when he's treated like or called a "butler droid". Bane used him as an unwitting suicide bomber during his infiltration of the Jedi Temple, but the Jedi rebuilt him to get information out of him and he found his way back to his master.
----
* AffablyEvil: He's very polite most of the time and quite proud of his function as a techno-service droid. In a short animatic from the un-aired Boba Fett arc, Todo showed some genuine concern for Boba's well-being after Cad Bane sets Boba to be captured by Tusken Raiders as part of a plan.
* AllThereInTheManual: Supplementary material states that the Jedi rebuilt him after he was used as a bomb to get information out of him. He didn't tell them anything and he left.
* BatmanGambit: In "Evil Plans", he was able to bait [=R2-D2=] out of hiding by claiming that he would dismantle [=C-3PO=] himself.
* ButtMonkey: Particularly in "Holocron Heist", where he does not get even a little respect from both Cad Bane and Cato Parasitti. See also WhyAmITicking
* EvilCounterpart: Possibly to [=C-3PO=].
* HaveIMentionedIAmADwarfToday: He would like to remind you that he is a techno-service droid and not a butler droid.
* [[JetPack Jet Feet]]: How he moves around.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: In "Holocron Heist", he was a ButtMonkey for the most part. In the Ziro the Hutt arc, he is both successful in being able to capture[=C-3PO=] and [=R2-D2=] and assists Cad Bane a bit in his duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos.
* OhCrap: He has two moments of this trope in "Holocron Heist". First, when he realizes he has no memory of having any memory crashes (suggesting he did have them) and then when he realizes that he's about to explode.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's about the same height as Yoda, but he's strong enough to tackle a standard humanoid off their feet or keep a Jedi from striking a deathblow.
* PluckyComicRelief: A bit of a stark contrast to his master.
* RobotBuddy: To Cad Bane.
* ServileSnarker: He's shown to be pretty sarcastic to his master as well some of his partners.
-->'''Cato Parasitti:''' Who are you?\\
'''Todo 360:''' I am Todo 360, techno-service droid. Who are you?\\
'''Cato:''' None of your business.\\
'''Todo:''' Everyone's in a good mood today.
* SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: What he thinks of Artoo giving himself up after falling for his BatmanGambit.
-->'''Todo 360:''' Noble? Yes. Wise? I think not.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Cad Bane, despite all the abuse he puts him through, including turning him into a bomb without his consent.
* WeCanRebuildHim: Anakin rebuilt him after the holocron theft to get some intel on Bane, but Todo refused and fled.
* WhyAmITicking: Bane used him as an unwitting suicide bomber in his debut appearance (you can even find the dialogue in the quotes for the trope). He is rebuilt shortly afterwords.
* YesMan: He does pretty much anything Bane says, regardless of how weird it may seem (or in some cases, dangerous for him).

[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/embo_sw_8572.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Dave Filoni
->'''Appears in:''' ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]'' | ''Literature/DarkDisciple''

--> ''"You're outmanned, laserblade."''

This Kyuzo is not one for smalltalk. Despite some of the shadier jobs he's taken, he's worked with Sugi, a bounty hunter with an uncommon code of honor. He also has a pet anooba named Marrok.
----
* AlwaysSecondBest: Count Dooku once gathered all the greatest bounty hunters together and introduced them with their name, any titles they had, some claim to fame, etc. When reached Embo, he said "Your bounty tally was second only to one last season," before turning to [[TheAce Cad Bane]].
* AutomaticCrossbows: Justified, as his weapon is a bowcaster.
* {{Badass}}: He regularly displays his skill as a bounty hunter.
* BadassAdorable: Anoobas are usually vicious pack animals and Marrok is no exception. However, Marrok acts like a house dog when he's not fighting. For example, he hands Embo a probe droid like a tennis ball as if he wants to play fetch and retrieves Embo's hat like a Frisbee whenever he loses it.
* BadassBandolier: It enhances the Sergio Leone-esque style of his appearance.
* BadassNormal: Only because he doesn't have Force-powers.
* BaldOfAwesome [=/=] BaldOfEvil: Which one depends on who he's working for. However, considering that Embo and Constable Zuvio are the only known Kyuzo have been shown on-screen so far, it's unknown if Kyuzo are naturally hairless or not.
* TheCameo:
** He's quite prone to pop up here-and-there, thanks to [[EnsembleDarkHorse his popularity among fans]].
** In ''Rebels'' Sabine has a graffiti depicting him on the wall of her room on the ''Ghost''.
* CoolMask: He wears what appears to be one over his mouth (unless that's actually part of his mouth). It's actual purpose is unknown, but if avoiding the [[DeadlyGas dioxis gas]] in "The Box" is any suggestion, it's most likely not a gas mask.
* CoolPet: His anooba, Marrok.
* CreatorCameo: He's voiced by the series' supervising director, Dave Filoni.
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Embo indulges in flashy acrobatics even when they aren't strictly necessary. Special mention goes to "The Box", where he makes an impressive spinning leap out of a hole in the floor, rather than simply climbing out as everyone else did.
* JumpPhysics: His jumps are outclassed only by Jedi.
* KarmaHoudini: Sometimes when it comes to his [[PunchClockVillain more villainous jobs]]. He was captured for his part in Count Dooku's plan to kidnap Palpatine, but he didn't stay in Republic custody for long since he's seen free two episodes later. In "An Old Friend", he stages a few assassination attempts on Rush Clovis (and kills Teckla Minnau when she was sabotaging the Vault's power system) and when those attempts seemingly fail, it turns out that Embo completed his job by getting Clovis to flee from Scipio.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: In "Eminence".
* LightningBruiser: Embo is incredibly quick and agile, strong enough easily snap necks bare-handed and has survived attacks that would kill most unarmored non-Force users.
* MadeOfIron: He survived getting shot by a tank (only being badly injured and getting a broken arm) and a beating from Savage Opress, a guy already known for killing people with his bare hands and being physically stronger than him.
* NeckSnap: Seems to be a [[SignatureMove favorite move of his]].
* NiceHat: One that can deflect blaster fire, be thrown and used as a makeshift snowboard.
* PetTheDog: Both literally and in the definition of the trope. At the end of "An Old Friend", he compliments Marrok for bringing his hat back to him, all after a failed attempt to assassinate Rush Clovis (except he wasn't really trying to kill Clovis in the first place).
* PunchClockVillain[=/=]PunchClockHero: Due to his career of choice, he'll work against the heroes if he's hired to, but Embo doesn't seem to actually bear any malice towards the Jedi, despite usually working for villainous characters in most of his non-cameo appearances. In his first appearance, he and Sugi worked alongside Jedi to protect farmers.
* ShoutOut: His species name is one to [[Film/SevenSamurai Kyuzo]], the taciturn and highly skilled ronin.
* TheStoic: He's pretty quiet most of the time and keeps his sentences short, but...
* TheUnintelligible: Whenever he does speak, it's always in his Kyuzo language, and as usual, ''The Clone Wars'' doesn't subtitle alien languages and relies on Basic-speaking characters to interpret. The quote above is an official translation of his first line. The easiest line to translate without an interpreter is the time he complimented Marrok for fetching his hat.
* WeaponizedHeadGear: He can use his NiceHat as [[LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe a blaster-proof shield]], or as a weapon by [[ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks throwing it]] with [[DeadlyDisc leathal precision]]. According to ''Dark Disciple'', his hat is stated to be pretty heavy and would probably require strong neck muscles to wear without getting thrown off balance.

-->'''Sugi:''' ''"So, in your mind, I'm just like any other pirate."''
-->'''Obi-Wan Kenobi:''' ''"Am I wrong?"''
-->'''Sugi:''' ''"Not entirely."''

A Zabrak bounty hunter. Unlike most of her colleagues, Sugi has a code of honor that keeps her from turning on her clients on a bribe. She even formed a band of like-minded bounty hunters.
----
* ActionGirl: She is a highly capable bounty hunter.
* BadassNormal: She has no force powers, but is a very capable fighter.
* TheCameo: She tends to appear in the background in BadGuyBar scenes. Her most famous one, though, is her TheCavalry moment below.
* TheCavalry: In "Wookiee Hunt", where she brings Wookiee warriors (who hired her for the ride) to save Ahsoka, Chewbacca, and the younglings.
* CoolStarship: Her light freighter, the ''Halo''.
* DeadpanSnarker: She refers to Obi-Wan as a "peacekeeper who fails to keep the peace" when he talks about the need to prioritize the Jedi's mission over helping the farmers.
* TheHeart: When she is a part of a bounty group, the group will be more noble and less self-serving, best seen with Embo and Latts, who are much less moral and more self serving outside her group.
* HornedHumanoid: Comes with being a Zabrak.
* KnifeNut: In addition to her blaster carbine, she also wields a vibro-knife.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: In "Eminence", once it becomes clear that they're no match for Maul, Savage, and Pre Vizsla, Sugi and her fellow hunters decide to just cut their losses and run.
* NobleDemon: Although she's a bounty hunter (not traditionally the most noble of professions), almost every job that Sugi's taken in the series so far has been a morally positive one (defending helpless farmers, helping rescue Ahsoka and the others in "Wookiee Hunt"; the only questionable one would be bodyguard duty for the Hutts during "Eminence", but even then, it was merely a protection job) and she shows concern toward her fellow bounty hunters.
* [[ThePreciousPreciousCar The Precious Precious Ship]]: Minor example. In "Wookiee Hunt", she warned Tarfful that if her ship was damaged, it would cost them extra.
* ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules: She refused an offer from Hondo to stand aside in exchange for double what the farmers were paying her, simply remarking that "we don't break deals".
* TattooedCrook: As is typical for a Zabrak. The tattoos, not being a crook.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Purple Hair]]

----
* TheCameo: He was on Sugi's ship in "Wookie Hunt".
* {{Expy}}: Of [[Film/TheMagnificentSeven Chico]] and [[Film/SevenSamurai Kikuchiyo]]
* GlowingMechanicalEyes: His MiniMecha had these.
* HypocriticalHumor: When they first met, he called Ahsoka a "knee-high". A little bit later we find out, that he's a small frog-sized alien, using a MiniMecha.
* KillerRabbit: During the battle against the pirates, his armor was quickly destroyed. After escaping from it, he still managed managed to take out one of the pirates by bludgeoning him with his own gun and throwing him off his speeder bike.
* LittleGreenManInACan: He uses a robotic suit to fight.
* MiniMecha: He used one in his debut episode "Bounty Hunters". [[AwesomeButImpractical It turned out to be rather useless]].

* ColdSniper: Her main weapon of choice.
* DroppedABridgeOnHer: She didn't even get an EstablishingCharacterMoment before she was ingloriously shot down by Hondo's tank, and the only reference to her death was Sugi mentioning that she was "light on company".
* FiringOneHanded: When she's not using her sniper rifle.
* InTheHood: She has her hood up consistently.

----
* TheCameo: She can be seen two seasons later out of Jedi custody in the Mos Eisley cantina in "Revenge".

A cowardly Klatooinian who worked with Aurra Sing, Bossk and Boba Fett during the latter's quest for vengeance against Mace Windu. He contributed nothing to the group and his partners weren't very fond of him either.
----
* AssholeVictim: Aside from Boba's regrets about working with [[TheCorrupter Aurra]], no one really mourned for him, and his corpse was unceremoniously dragged out of Hondo's bar after his death.
* BoomHeadshot: How Aurra kills him.
* CharacterDeath: He is killed by Aurra when he tried to sell her out.
* DirtyCoward: A trait that earns him both Aurra's and Boba's ire.
* EyeScream: He was already missing an eye, but he was most likely hit in the other eye when Aurra shot him in the head.

* {{Gonk}}: [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Klatooinian/Canon Klatooinians]] are hardly a beautiful species in the first place, but Castas looks even more thuggish than they usually do (most of them can at least stand up straight like most other humanoids).

Note that this is for the ''real'' Rako Hardeen. For tropes applying to Obi-Wan's impersonation of Rako Hardeen, see Obi-Wan's entry [[Characters/StarWarsJediCouncil here]].

* ColdSniper: He's known as the Marksman of Concord Dawn for a reason.
* CoolHelmet: Has a helmet inspired by Ralph [=McQuarrie=] concept art of a Rebel trooper helmet for ''Return Of The Jedi''.
* InformedAbility: We don't really see much of what the real Rako Hardeen is capable of beyond his claim-to-fame and his marksmanship. And the one job we do see him doing and succeeding at was a setup by the Jedi Council.
* MuggedForDisguise: Subverted. He was setup to "kill" Obi-Wan, who then had plastic surgery to change his face to look like Hardeen's and then had Hardeen's gear taken from him to complete the disguise.
* TattooedCrook: He's got an elaborate tattoo on his face. When Obi-Wan had his face surgically reshaped to match Hardeen's, the tattoo was included.
* UnwittingPawn: To the Jedi Council, as part of a plan to infiltrate a Separatist conspiracy. They hire him to kill Obi-Wan without telling them who they are until he receives his payment from them.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After Obi-Wan completed the disguise, there was no word on what happened to the real Rako Hardeen. [[AllThereInTheManual According to the online trivia slideshow for "The Box"]], there would have been a scene where Captain Rex is caught by Anakin Skywalker taking the real Hardeen into hiding, but it was cut because the writers felt it would be out of character for Rex to withhold information from Anakin.

A Phindian criminal mastermind and an ally of the Separatists, Eval was locked away in a Republic penitentiary and conceived of a plan to kidnap Chancellor Palpatine before breaking out.
----
* AxCrazy: When you kill your mother [[EnfantTerrible as a child]] and claim that you did it because [[ItAmusedMe you were bored]], you definitely qualify.

* FauxAffablyEvil: He's fairly polite in a slimy, totally transparent sort of way.

* BadassNormal: She is a skilled fighter, and managed to fight Savage Opress and Darth Maul (and took down at least one Mandalorian warrior) and lived to tell the tale.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: One of the few Humanoids to not wear shoes.
* FragileSpeedster: She's very quick, but she clearly feels what few hits her enemies manage to land.
* InformedAbility: The databank states she has [[ImprobableAimingSkills pinpoint accuracy with a blaster]], but she's only been seen using her blaster pistol once in a blink-or-you'll-miss-it moment during her battle with Darth Maul's Shadow Collective on Nal Hutta. And that one time she was using it, all of her shots were either blocked and/or missed.
* KickChick: Nearly all of her melee attacks (that don't involve her grappling boa) are kicks.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: In "Eminence" she escapes from a losing battle alongside with Dengar, Sugi, and Embo.
* [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Purple-Skinned Space Babe]]: Comes with being a Theelin.
* PerkyFemaleMinion: She is much less serious about her job then pretty much any other Hunter and seems to find it enjoyable.
* PunchClockVillain: Like many Bounty Hunters her allegiance is only to whose paying her, though in "Eminence" she saves Embo and Sugi allowing the entire Bounty party to escape.
* RubberForeheadAlien: She's a Theelin.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Her grappling boa not only looks stylish on her, it's also useful as a weapon, making it a scarf ''for'' asskicking as well.
* VillainousFriendship: Latts is a PunchClockVillain at worst, but she seems to share a friendship with Ventress, at least to the point where they share a drink. In Literature/DarkDisciple Latts is the only bounty hunter to not be angry with Ventress and actually defends her when people started speaking ill about her.
* WaifFu: Her fighting style involves a lot of kicks and agility.
* WhipItGood: She uses a unique weapon called a [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Grappling_boa grappling boa]], which functions much like a whip.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Orange Hair]]: Probably justified, as she is of an alien species.

A droid that works with Boba Fett during the Clone Wars.
----
* EarlyBirdCameo: In a sense, his first appearance in "Bounty" would have been this, as Highsinger (if that is him judging by concept art) was set to be a major character in the video game, ''[[VideoGame/ThirteenThirteen Star Wars: 1313]]''. However, with the game's cancellation (and the shutdown of LucasArts), "Bounty" and ''Dark Disciple'' are Highsinger's only appearances so far.
* {{Expy}}: Possibly of [=IG=]-88. Because [=IG=]-86 sentinel droids already showed up in several places in earlier seasons of ''The Clone Wars'', the creators most likely wanted to make a unique bounty hunter droid and avoid character model recycling for Boba's band of hunters.
* LeanAndMean: He's the tallest member in the young Boba Fett's band of bounty hunters, even taller than Bossk.
* NoSell: A restraining bolt at best just annoys him before he rips it off.

Also known as "The Exterminator", this Parwan was considered one of the best bounty hunters in the galaxy during the Clone Wars. He competed in The Box with ten other bounty hunters for the opportunity to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.
----
* BadassBandolier: Due his to bio-electric energy field, he actually has to wear an insulated bandolier to keep his own explosives from blowing himself up when not in use.
* BizarreAlienBiology: He can inject himself with an electrolite-syrum, that would kill most other lifeforms, and with which he can pass through ray-shields unharmed.
* CombatTentacles: His fingers are very long and he can shock anyone who touches them.
* ExtraEyes: As every Parwan he has three eyes.
* GunsAkimbo: Aside from his bio-electric current, he has also two blaster pistols with grips practically designed for his tentacle-hands.
* JetPack: He sports one, that helped him escape the Jedi on Naboo.
* KarmaHoudini: He was the only bounty hunter to avoid being captured during Dooku's Chancellor-kidnapping plot. Judging by his background appearances in later episodes, the JetPack malfunction didn't kill him either.
* LivingGasbag: He's even referred to as one. However, being light-weight and floaty results in less speed and momentum when in flight.
* RedBaron: According to Dooku he's known as "the Exterminator".
* ShockAndAwe: The bodies of Parwans produce an electrical field, and Derrown used this to shock Anakin into submission.
* ShoulderCannon: Has a Franchise/{{Predator}}-style shoulder-mounted canon, although he hasn't used it on-screen.
* StarfishAliens: Parwans are some sort of three-eyed-tentacled-[[MushroomMan humanoid-fungi creatures]], and they're [[LivingGasbag floating in the air]].
* TheUnintelligible: Even the other bounty hunters (aside from Obi-Wan disguised as Rako Hardeen) seemed to be unable to understand him. Creates a bit of PlotHole, when he spoke to a Republic Senate guard using Galactic Basic, while being disguised as one of them.

----
* {{Expy}}: Invoked and parodied. Bulduga is very clearly trying to mimick Cad Bane with his brown leadervest, red lensed visors/goggles and broad trimmed fedora.
* GunsAkimbo: Onca used two blasters at a time, including a sawed-off blaster rifle.
* TheGunslinger: Many people believed that Bulduga was trying to imitate Cad Bane with his choice of hat and QuickDraw style, although they never did so within his hearing. Too bad for him that Cad Bane does not take well to copycats who have nicer hats than him.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Onca is killed when one of the spike traps in the Box impales him from behind.
* MightyGlacier: Onca was unable to move as fast as his brother, being unable to overcome the Ithorians natural heavy build, so he preferred to overwhelm his targets with firepower. This did not serve him well in the Box, where he fell victim to the quick traps inside very quickly.
* NiceHat: Bulduga wore a large brimmed hat similar to the ones Cad Bane wore. Unfortunately for him, this made Cad Bane want to take it for himself and kill Bulduga for it.
* SiblingTeam: They hunted bounties as a team, and even Count Dooku was aware of their fearsome reputation.
* StereotypeFlip: Ithorians are known for being a peaceful race. Bulduga and Onca are ruthless bounty hunters who are very quickly able to prove anyone who thinks that about them wrong.

A Wookiee bounty hunter frequently employed by Jabba the Hutt. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Darth Vader hires Black Krrsantan to hunt down and capture a mysterious agent of the Emperor.
----
* {{Badass}}: Jabba refers him to Darth Vader as one of his top two hunters alongside Boba Fett. Krrsantan quickly proves his worth by tracking down and capturing Dr. Cylo IV, a personal agent of the Emperor, with ease.
* BattleTrophy: Takes a lock of hair from other Wookiees he kills in pit fights.
* BloodKnight: He enjoys fighting in pit fights against captive Wookiees. At one fight on Son-tuul, Krrsantan strangled one of the Wookiees who was supposed to fight and then took his place, with the owners being too scared to say anything about it.

* GoodScarsEvilScars: He has a very ugly scar over his left eye and extended over his head.

* InformedAbility: Boba's status as the best bounty hunter in the galaxy is pretty iffy in the films (either that, or the galaxy's bounty hunters all suck). The canon outside of the Original Trilogy does a better job of justifying his title. For instance, he's able to pilot the ''Slave I'' well in ''Attack Of The Clones'', even managing to distract Obi-Wan with it long enough so that his father could escape, and ''The Clone Wars'' has shown him as a capable bounty hunter in his youth, but not up to Cad Bane's caliber yet (he was no match for Force users at the time, as Asajj Ventress demonstrated, and Bane was still the top gun in the galaxy at the time).

-->'''Aurra:''' He (Hondo) speaks from experience.
* DesignatedGirlFight: With Ahsoka. Notable in that she became the first and so far only character to injure Ahsoka in a fair fight.

* EvilAlbino: Assumedly pale skin is a trait of her species.
* EvilMentor: To Boba.
* EvilRedhead: Keeps her head mostly shaved sans a long red ponytail.
* FauxAffablyEvil: She acts fairly personable and friendly, but it only conceals (and not very well) her cold, sociopathic persona.
* GangstaStyle: During the final show down with Ahsoka in "Assasin", she held her blasters sideways.

* BaldOfAwesome [=/=] BaldOfEvil: Which one depends on who he's working for. However, considering that Embo's the only member of his species shown in any story so far (both canon and ''Legends''), it's unknown if Kyuzo are naturally hairless or not.

* WeaponizedHeadGear: He can use his NiceHat as [[LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe a blaster-proof shield]], or as a weapon by [[ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks throwing it]] with [[DeadlyDisc leathal precision]].

* {{Badass}}: He fights equally against Anakin.

* BondVillainStupidity: Even if he didn't shoot first and missed, he still made the mistake of gloating to Han instead of just shooting him right after he refuses to come with him.

* TheDogShotFirst: Tries to shoot Han when he realizes the conversation with him isn't going so well. He misses, of course.
* EpicFail: The Special Edition makes him shoot first, but he misses Han by a significant margin. '''At point-blank range.'''

* TookALevelInBadass: He's '''much''' more of a badass in the original trilogy than he did in ''Attack of the Clones'' or ''The Clone Wars''. In ''Dark Disciple'', he and a group of other bounty hunters were able to successfully apprehend Count Dooku, when beforehand, he proved no match for Asajj Ventress, suggesting he took that level late in the Clone War. And then, come the time of the Marvel comic, he's brutally efficient to a degree where he has earned his reputation as the best bounty hunter in the Galaxy.

* YouKilledMyFather: He goes after Mace for revenge. This ends about as badly as you'd expect, given that Mace is only slightly less powerful than Yoda, and Boba's only in his middle teens.

* ChangedMyMindKid: Turns around and rescues Sabine, and allows her to deliver the courier to the Rebel Alliance, presumably to make up for betraying her in the backstory
* CoolHelmet: A helmet based on early concept art of Boba Fett.
* DarkActionGirl: Works as a bounty hunter for the Black Sun syndicate
