Jabrogg Thung was a male Gamorrean who lived during the last decades of the Galactic Republic. He partook in the sport of nerf-throwing, and became the intergalactic nerf-throwing champion. During his sporting career, he fatally injured several nerfs, which lead to the Galactic Humane Society placing a bounty on his head. The Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett encountered Thung on the Outland Transit Station in 32 BBY and captured him alive, claiming the bounty for 2,000 credits.
Biography
By the year 32 BBY, Thung had taken up a career in the sport known as nerf-throwing and, while working as an athlete, he was responsible for the fatal injury of several nerfs, a species of non-sentient grazing animal. Thung's prowess in the sport led to him being considered the intergalactic nerf-throwing champion, but his involvement in the death of the nerfs resulted in the Galactic Humane Society placing a bounty on his head. The organization offered 2,000 credits for his capture alive, but would only pay 1,000 credits if he was killed. By 32 BBY, Thugg's career had faltered and he scratched out a living as a hired thug on the crime-infested space station Outland in the Outer Rim Territories. While Thung was there, the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett also arrived on the station and begun hunting down the Muttani crime boss Meeko Ghintee as a favor to the station's Toydarian owner, Rozatta.[1]
While in pursuit of a fleeing Ghintee, Thung, accompanied by several other Gamorreans and Trandoshans, attacked the Mandalorian. However, Fett managed to successfully capture the former sports champion alive and later claimed the bounty of 2,000 from the Society.[1]
