Legend

this Corellian man was a noted bounty hunter, who was considered second only to Boba Fett in the number of successful hunts undertaken in the Core Worlds during the early years of the New Order. He met with a group of other bounty hunters on the remote world of Ma'ar Shaddam, hoping to gain their support in a plan to eliminate Boba Fett during his routine maintenance stopover on the planet. Their plan was hastily thrown together, and any planning they had was shattered when Fett recognized the threat. Before Nu could react, half of his team had been killed by Fett. The other half was eliminated systematically by Fett shortly afterward, until only Fett and Nu remained. Since Fett was busy with the other hunters, Nu managed to steal his Mandalorian armor and weapons, and gained access to Slave I. He then used the ship's weapons systems to try and destroy Fett on the ground. Fett survived a missile blast, and obtained a back-up set of armor - that once worn by Jango Fett - he kept on Ma'ar Shaddam. Fett then tracked Nu down and defeated him in one-on-one combat. Nu was stripped of the Mandalorian armor and left in just his underwear, as a reminder that Boba Fett was still the number one bounty hunter in the galaxy.
