Boba Fett. The name brings chills to those with a bounty on their head. Ruthless, emotionless, and merciless, he is the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy.
No one knows much about his past, but it is said he lived on Concord Dawn, and under his original name of Jaster Mereel, became a Journeyman Protector. When he killed a fellow Protector, he was exiled and told never to return. He joined the empire and remained there for ten years. No one really knows how he aquired his armor, but later, he emerged as the bounty hunter we know as Boba Fett. He added various weapons to his armor; darts, a mini flame projector, and grappler hooks among them, and wears braided Wookiee scalps over his right shoulder. He has collected countless bounties, and as far as we know has shown no guilt or remorse over any. He has had a lifelong quest to capture the smuggler Han Solo, and succeeded in doing it, letting Darth Vader freeze Solo in carbonite. Then, he delivered Solo to Jabba the Hutt. It was in Return of the Jedi that we see Fett meet his doom with the Sarlacc. Out fighting over the Pit of Carcoon, a half-blind Solo accidentally ignites his jetpack and Fett first slams into Jabba's sailbarge, then falls into the Sarlacc.
But is this the end of the most feared bounty hunter? Of course not! Fett escapes the Sarlacc, and is nursed back to health by a friend. He later tracks down Solo, and when they meet, he claims "the Sarlacc found me somewhat indigestable".
Other knowledge (or unknown stuff).
Species: humanoid (A humaniod is different from a human. They have the same anatomy, but their lifespan may be different, and stuff like that.)
Age: unknown
Gender: male (although I have heard internet rumors that Fett may turn out to be a female. My argument? That scene in ROTJ where he flirts with the dancer would make no sense. For more arguments against Fett being female, go to http://www.asteroid-belt.com/femalefett.html)
Height: 1.8 meters (with his armor on), or about 6 feet.
Hair/Eye color: Don't know. No one has ever seen his face. (That survived, anyway).
*Thanks to "Arden Lyn" who informed me that Fett did *not* join up with the Mandalorians as I said before.* |
