- "Fur-Bite unsealed the vault and took a saberdart to the neck. But the other traps failed to fire."
- ―Grunda Mabin notes Fur-Bite's death in the Smuggler's Guide
Fur-Bite was a member of the Blazing Claw pirate group that sailed under Captain Gunda Mabin on the Bloody Bones.[2] By 10 BBY,[1] Mabin had claimed the book that would become known as the Smuggler's Guide from the captured pirate Hondo Ohnaka, and inside discovered the location of a treasure vault buried on the moon Moldour 14 by the Pirate Queen Maz Kanata.[2]
Eager to claim the treasure, Mabin had the Bloody Bones travel to Moldour 14. Upon reaching their destination, seven members of the crew mutinied, but were killed by Mabin and those loyal to her. The crewmember Poppy then located the island sinkhole on Moldour 14 where the vault was buried. Fur-Bite then unsealed the vault, but was killed by a trap that fired a saberdart into the pirate's neck. The other traps in the vault failed to fire, and Mabin and the remaining crew claimed the precious meleenium, hyperbarides, and prismatic crystals inside before leaving the moon. Mabin later mentioned Fur-Bite's death while writing in the Smuggler's Guide.[2]
Behind the scenes
Fur-Bite was mentioned in the 2018 reference book Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, which was written by Daniel Wallace.[2]

Notes and references
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 The entry in Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide mentioning Fur-Bite's death is placed chronologically prior to an entry written by the criminal Tobias Beckett. Solo: A Star Wars Story depicts Beckett's death on the planet Savareen, and Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide dates the events on Savareen in the film to nine years after the proclamation of the New Order. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the proclamation to 19 BBY, Beckett's death must occur in 10 BBY, and so his entry in the guide and those chronologically before it must all be set prior to or during 10 BBY.
