"In the Guild, oddballs are the norm, not the exception. […] Take […] Count Dojarat of Prospera Jang, the gentleman adventurer who lets his marks go free if they beat him at boxing."
―Arack Dostryt, the Bounty Hunters Guild Handbook[3]

Prospera Jang was a celestial body[4] located in the Prospera Jang system, a part of the Kurost sector[1] in the Slice portion of[2] the Mid Rim.[1] At some point between 39 BBY and 34 BBY, Corporate Alliance forces under the command of the Harch military leader Trench captured the Kurosti merchant fleet during a daring raid at Prospera Jang.[4] The Aqualish bounty hunter Count Dojarat hailed from Prospera Jang, a fact that was noted by Arack Dostryt, the Director of Recruiting for the Bounty Hunters' Guild, in a section of an edition of the Bounty Hunters Guild Handbook published[3] at some point between 19 BBY and 0 BBY.[5]

Behind the scenes

Prospera Jang was introduced in the 2012 reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart.[4] The StarWars.com Online Companion to the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas later placed the Prospera Jang system, and therefore Prospera Jang, in grid square Q-11.[1]

  5. ↑ The Bounty Hunter Code: From the Files of Boba Fett includes an in-universe copy of the Bounty Hunters Guild Handbook. The included edition of the Handbook was published at some point following the establishment of the Galactic Empire and is annotated by Greedo, whose death is depicted in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. Since The New Essential Chronology places the formation of the Empire and the events of A New Hope in 19 BBY and 0 BBY, respectively, the included edition of the Bounty Hunters' Guild Handbook must have therefore been published at some point between those two dates.
