Legend

this Weequay rapist, murderer, and all-around criminal served as one of Ghez Hokan's Lieutenants on the planet Qiilura, during the last years of the Old Republic. Guta-Nay was the brother of Gar-Ul. It was Guta-Nay who chased Etain Tur-Mukan into the forests, hoping for a good time, but he was intercepted and reprimande by Hokan himself for his actions. During another routine mission, Guta-Nay was captured by the members of Omega Squad and held prisoner. Unfortunately for Guta-Nay, Hokan listed him as a deserter, and ordered his forces to capture the Weequay on sight. Etain was forced to confront her former attacker, and she managed to use the Force to subtly influence the Weequay into revealing information about Hokan's forces, as well as the location of Ovolot Qail Uthan's research facility. The Republic team also made the difficult decision to use Guta-Nay as the bait in the trap they were laying for Hokan. Tur-Mukan and the clone commandos talked with Guta-Nay about their plans, but placed a series of false data into their discussions. The hope was that, if they freed Guta-Nay, he would return to Hokan and use the information he had gathered as a way to save his life. Tur-Mukan felt some deep reservations about this plan, since it might ultimately mean the death of Guta-Nay, even though he was a known criminal. In the end, however, she realized that Guta-Nay's death would save thousands - if not millions - of clone troopers and civilians. Figuring that Guta-Nay would be reluctant to return to Hokan, Tur-Mukan used the Force to implant the suggestion that he "escape" with the information on Omega Squad's plans. Guta-Nay eventually left, and returned to Hokan's encampment. The Mandalorian was less than happy to see the Weequay, but absorbed what Guta-Nay had to say. Despite the usefulness of Guta-Nay's information, Hokan believed that the Weequay had disobeyed his orders, and beheaded him with Kast Fulier's lightsaber as an example to his troops.
