Legend

this tall, muscular, blue-skinned alien was employed by the Empire as a detonations expert. He was red body armor and a red helmet set with two blunt horns. He was sent to Gaar Suppoon's hideout on a warning that Jabba the Hutt had planted a bomb there. In reality, Jabba had played Kosh Kurp for the bomb. Jabba knew that Gaar Suppoon had gone by the name of Sonopo Bomoor, a crazed villian who had invaded Kurp's homeworld and killed his family in front of his eyes. Suppoon left Kurp alive, as a living testimony of Bomoor's deeds. He spent the rest of his life searching for Bomoor, whom Jabba knew was really Suppoon. When Suppoon tried to kill Kurp, the laser bolt ricocheted off his red armor and blasted Suppoon's head off. Kosh Kurp became the de facto leader of Suppoon's criminal empire.
