"I was once buried alive—for 60 years! If that didn't kill me… if the Sith and the Mandalorians and the Bloodboilers of Kragis couldn't kill me—then you will not kill me!"
―Durge, to Anakin Skywalker[4]

The Bloodboilers of Kragis was an organization[4] from the Expansion Region's Kragis system.[1][2] At some point by 20 BBY,[3] it attempted to kill the Gen'Dai bounty hunter Durge. Confronted by Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker during the latter's mission to Maramere[4] in 20 BBY,[3] Durge claimed that as with the Sith, Mandalorian, and the Bloodboilers of Kragis in the past, Skywalker would not be able to kill him. However, the Jedi was undeterred, and destroyed Durge by disintegrating him in the star Karthakk.[4]

Behind the scenes

The Bloodboilers of Kragis were mentioned in the second issue of the comic-book Star Wars: Obsession,[4] written by Haden Blackman and published by Dark Horse Comics on December 29, 2004.[5]
