Kannen Doom

This article is non-canon within the Star Wars Legends continuity. This article covers a Star Wars Legends subject that was published under the Infinities label or that Lucasfilm otherwise declared non-canon within the Legends continuity.

Kannen Doom was a noted Human female bounty hunter who aged at a far slower rate than normal. In the last years of the Galactic Republic, she favored form-fitting hot pink outfits with low necklines, but by the time of the Battle of Endor, she typically dressed in blue armor.

She was armed with a blaster and a double-bladed vibrostaff comparable to those used by the Emperor's Royal Guard, plus twin-pronged vibroblades in her wrist gauntlets. She may have been a Mandalorian, as her helmet had a T-shaped visor (although the "upright" of the T was shorter than usual), and she had a long-running association with the Fett family.

Biography

In 32 BBY, she assisted Jango Fett in getting the job as the prime clone for the Grand Army of the Republic, and she was apparently dating him ten years later, just before the Battle of Geonosis, when they shared a lunch in Dex's Diner on Coruscant.

Decades afterwards, she dated Jango's son, Boba. Her liaison with Fett was a sore point, as he broke off the relationship without warning, and later insisted that she had mistaken him for one of the many clones produced from his father's template. She harbored something of a blood-feud with him as a result.

By 4 ABY, Kannen had fallen in with the Rebel Alliance. In this capacity, she escorted Manuel Both-Hanz to a meeting on Tatooine with Lando Calrissian, Tag Greenley, and Bink Otauna, intended to bring vital intelligence on the new Death Star to the Alliance. After her initial rendezvous was botched, she thought that she had gained some compensation by capturing Fett, although it was actually Tag inside the bounty hunter's armor. The arrival of the real Fett complicated matters, and in the ensuing firefight, Manny was killed by a shot through the chest.

She was last seen fighting Fett in a Mos Eisley docking bay, while Tag and Bink blasted their way off-planet aboard what may have been her own ship—a Lambda-class shuttle with a powerful holocomm.

Behind the scenes

Kannen's appearance was based on Drea Hoffman, Kevin Rubio's best friend.

The explanation for Kannen's youthful attractiveness in both "Fett Club" and The Return of Tag & Bink: Special Edition was given in a "Creators Note" added to this page by Kevin Rubio himself: Kannen is Human and does age. She just ages at a slower rate.^[2] This was accompanied by a seemingly unpublished sketch of Kannen by artist Lucas Marangon.
