A bounty hunter operated during the Galactic Civil War. During one adventure, the bounty hunter had to rescue a child who wrestled a pirate out of a hatch. Using a parachute and an ablative heatshield, the hunter dove from orbit over the planet Dantooine to the surface to save the kid. They parted ways sometime after.[1]
Later, while on the methane planet Farstine, the hunter encountered another child. Orphaned, homeless, and penniless, the child was down to his last fifteen minutes of oxygen. The hunter, reminded of a brother who had died young, took the child under their protection.
The bounty hunter possessed an outwardly rough disposition that shielded a compassionate nature.[1]
Behind the scenes
- "You sure this isn't too melodramatic?"
"No, sounds good to me. Besides, melodrama is easy to roleplay." - ―Two fictitious players discuss the bounty hunter's backstory
The bounty hunter was first mentioned in Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, released in 1987. The individual is used in a hypothetical discussion between fictitious players as example for how to connect characters' backstories.[1]
