Legend

an Ubese bounty hunter, he was known as a level-headed hunter whose hand-to-hand combat skills were as formidable and deadly as the thermal detonators he liked to throw. One of his more unique traits was his obsession with learning as much about his employer as he did about his target. This stemmed from Boushh's distrust of other beings, and he considered it simply insurance that he would be paid in full when the job was done. He worked for Black Sun during the Galactic Civil War, but was caught trying to swindle more credits out of a signed contract. He was captured by Guri and eliminated, but his geared was kept for future use. That future use came when Leia Organa met with Guri, and was brought to Coruscant to meet with Xizor. Leia was given the bounty hunter's clothing as a disguise for getting past the security checkpoints without being recognized as an Alliance leader. When she escaped from Xizor's castle, she brought the gear with her, and later posed as Boushh, with Chewbacca in tow, in order to enter Jabba's palace and rescue Han Solo.
