Early Life[]
Bossk was born on 53 BBY on Trandosha, as the son of Cradossk, the leader of the Bounty Hunter’s Guild. Bossk began his career by hunting Wookiees, and soon became one of the galaxy’s most feared bounty hunters.
Clone Wars[]
During the Clone Wars, he teamed up with young Boba Fett. After a failed assassination attempt on Mace Windu, Bossk and Boba were arrested on Coruscant. Bossk eventually escaped from prison and teamed up with Boba Fett again. At some point during the Clone Wars, he and Fett accepted a mission from the Belugan Major Rigosso.
During the Empire[]
Bossk eventually acquired a YV-666 light freighter which became his trademark ship, the Hound’s Tooth. In 3 ABY, Darth Vader hired him and other bounty hunters to track down Han Solo and his allies. One year later, Bossk was present on Jabba’s sail barge during the Battle of Carkoon.
Retirement[]
After the Battle of Endor, Bossk retired from bounty hunting. He was still alive during the Yuuzhan Vong War.
