Smug Smug was a Trandoshan male big game hunter who was a member of a hunting guild that operated out of the moon of Wasskah . The guild , led by the hunter Garnac , was known to capture sentient beings — including Jedi youngling s — that were then brought back to Wasskah to be hunted down for sport . During the year 20 BBY , the Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano was captured by the guild and deposited on Island Four , where quickly made allies out of the other survivors . Together , they ambushed the guild ' s kidnapping freighter and caused it to crash , freeing the Wookiee prisoner Chewbacca in the process . Smug staked out the crash site on the following night and visually intercepted Tano ' s group when they returned to the crash in order to salvage it . However , as Smug sighted in Tano and Chewbacca , he began talking to himself and alerted Tano ' s two Jedi youngling allies , O - Mer and Jinx , to his presence . The younglings ambushed Smug , causing the hunter to inadvertently alert his targets of his presence . Though Smug nearly killed his attackers , he was apprehended by Chewbacca and , under Jinx ' s suggestion , taken prisoner . Tano ' s group brought Smug back to the crash site the next day and subjected him to Force mind trick s that eventually persuaded the hunter to call for a ride back to the guild ' s airborne fortress . The pilot Krix answered the call with a MSP80 hover pod , who learned of the trap only too late . Krix was ambushed , and both he and Smug were knocked unconscious . The Jedi commandeered the speeder and used it for what was ultimately a successful assault against the hunting guild . Biography . Blood sport . Smug was a Trandoshan male who was one of eleven Trandoshan members of hunting guild led by the big game hunter Garnac . The guild operated on the Mid Rim moon of Wasskah out of a hovering Ubrikkian floating fortress that served as the guild ' s headquarters . Although the guild hunted various non - sentient creatures , the guild happened to delve into the kidnapping of sentient beings that were brought back to Wasskah to be hunted themselves . During the year 20 BBY , a guild expedition to the planet Felucia produced the Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano . As Jedi targets were considered by the guild to hold great value , Garnac hoped to make Tano his son Dar ' s first trophy for his upcoming debut hunt as an official guild member . The day following Tano ' s capture and release on Wasskah ' s Island Four , Smug was present in the fortress trophy room when Garnac announced the beginning of the next hunting period . Smug and the other Trandoshans took up arms as they celebrated the dawn and headed to the base ' s landing pad . Smug stood by and watched as the guild ' s three MSP80 Pteropter hover pod s were loaded with occupants and flown down to Wasskah ' s surface for a round of slaughter . That night , the hunters reconvened in the trophy room for Dar ' s iniation ceremony . Smug and the other hunters cheered and chanted as Garnac officially inducted Dar into the guild ' s fold as its twelfth member . However , Dar ' s hunt the following day led to a series of skirmishes with Tano and the Jedi youngling Kalifa that eventually led to him falling and impaling himself on a spike in Island Four ' s jungle . Garnac vowed revenge against the Jedi and killed Kalifa in short order , and later began having his hunters sweep the island for Tano and her two other youngling allies , O - Mer and Jinx . However , his initial searches came up short . Hunting the Jedi . Stakeout . A few days later , Smug and the other hunters found their Trandoshan prisoner ship that they had used to capture prey with , had crashed on Island Four ' s beach head . As it happened , Tano had rallied the other younglings into a bold offensive against the Trandoshan ship in an effort to hijack it and escape Wasskah only to instead ground it during the resulting skrimish . Smug stood guard in a grounded hover pod as the bodies of the pilot s Clutch and Goron were pulled from the wreckage . Meanwhile , Garnac and the hunter Lo - Taren realized that the Jedi had become bold and organized . In addition , the Jedi had freed the freighter ' s sole prisoner , the Wookiee Chewbacca . The Trandoshans eventually left the crash site , but anticipating that the wreckage could be visited again , Smug and the hunter Sochek returned to the crash site in a hover pod . Smug was dropped off on a rocky outcropping positioned above the crash site and was left to his own devices . The stakeout paid off , as Tano and Chewbacca did return to the crash site in order to salvage usable materials from it , as the Wookiee hoped to build a transmitter to call for help with . Smug set his sights on the wreck , not realizing that directly below the outcropping was O - Mer and Jinx , who were serving as lookouts for their allies . As Smug waited for his prey to walk into the view of his rifle scope , he began talking to himself upon sighting Chewbacca . Despite noticing Sochek ' s brief stop , O - Mer and Jinx did not investigate until they overheard Smug ' s private conversation with himself . Realizing the hunter ' s purpose , the younglings climbed up to Smug ' s position and ambushed him right as Tano walked into his line - of - sight . The attack caused Smug to squeeze off a wayward shot which alerted Tano and Chewbacca to his presence . After being disarmed of his sniper rifle , Smug grappled with the younglings and , after a short yet vicious struggle , Smug proved to be the superior warrior . Before the Trandoshan could finish Jinx off with his knife , however , Smug was apprehended and disarmed by Chewbacca . The Wookiee began to beat and strangle Smug , but Jinx , seeing Smug as having more value to them as something other than a corpse , suggested that the sniper be taken prisoner instead . Tano agreed , told Chewbacca to relinquish his hold on Smug , and the Trandoshan was taken back to the survivor ' s hideout . Upon reaching the tree - based hideout , Smug ' s hands were bound with a vine while the Jedi planned the next stage of their escape . Tables turned . Now a prisoner of the Jedi , Smug was kept within arms reach of his captors as they plotted their next move . With Smug captured without the notice of his comrades , the Jedi had gained an advantage . Smug overheard Chewbacca ' s plans to build his transmitter and the subsequent doubt cast by Jinx and O - Mer . Instead , the younglings stressed that they should use Smug to their advantage while they had an element of surprise over Garnac ' s lodge . Although Tano requested patience , having faith in Chewbacca ' s plan , O - Mer and Jinx planned to take Smug and force him to help them attack the Trandoshan fortress , with or without Tano and Chewbacca ' s help . However , Chewbacca and Tano ultimately agreed to assist , and by morning Smug was marched back to the wreck . Initially , Smug proved resilient to his captors ; the hunter held no intentions of voluntarily helping the younglings , and Smug completely ignored Jinx ' s attempt at a Force mind trick . As a result of the latter , Smug was smacked upside the head by Chewbacca , which clouded his mind and made him vulnerable to a second mind trick . Under Jinx ' s control , Smug was convinced that he had escaped custody and contacted Lo - Taren for a ride back to the fortress . In response , Krix was sent in a hover pod . The pilot found Smug , still under Jinx ' s control , waiting alone near the wreck . When Krix extended a hand to help Smug aboard , he was ambushed by Tano and taken out of the pod . As Krix brawled , Smug idly stood by , still under the affects of the mind trick . Before Smug could recompose himself , O - Mer tackled the hunter , knocking him unconscious . Krix was beaten by Chewbacca shortly after , and the hover pod was stolen by Tano ' s group and flown to the fortress . The group ' s attack was launched on the fortress right as Lagon and the hunter Ramy began to wonder what had become of Smug and Krix . Chewbacca ' s transmitter ended up working , and with the help of the Wookiee soldier s that answered the call , Tano ' s attack against the hunting lodge was successful . Garnac and the other members of the hunting lodge were eliminated , leaving Smug , Krix , and Ramy — the only survivor of the direct attack — as the only surviving Trandoshans . Personality and traits . An orange - scaled Trandoshan with dark - brown mottling on his face along with yellow eye s , Smug was a capable brawler who , like the other members of the guild , was excited by the prospect of hunting the jungles of Wasskah . Smug showed a deal of camaraderie towards his comrades , and was particularly excited during Dar ' s initiation ceremony , where he cheered and chanted Dar ' s name as the young hunter joined the guild . Upon sighting Chewbacca and Ahsoka Tano with his sniper rifle , Smug expressed interest in their activities and became summarily pleased with the idea of landing a killing shot . However , the fact that he showed his excitement by talking to himself displayed a lack self - awareness , with his chortling giving away his position to O - Mer and Jinx , which them to easily ambush him . Though Smug proved his combat prowess by besting the Jedi younglings in one - on - two combat , he became so enveloped by the prospect of gutting Jinx that he failed to notice Chewbacca come up behind him and thwart yet another kill . Smug displayed a level of disgust and annoyance with being taken prisoner by the Jedi , and laughed off their attempt to command him into obeying orders . Knowledgeable of the Force , Smug proved to be of sound mind in that he was able to completely ignore a Jedi mind trick . He became susceptible to a second trick after Chewbacca hit him in the head and caused him to lose focus , however . While under Jinx ' s control , Smug appeared pleased with himself when he believed that he had escaped the Jedi . Despite being under Jinx ' s control , Smug seemed to be aware of Jinx ' s hold on him , and while waiting for Krix to pick him up , Smug looked to Jinx for guidance as Krix drew nearer . The Trandoshan was a skilled combatant , as after being ambushed , he quickly recovered and managed to beat both of his Jedi attackers . Smug tended to refer to his prey as either " whelps " or " pretties . " Equipment . Smug ' s primary weapon of choice was a long , thin sniper blaster rifle that featured a vertical foregrip and an electronic magnifying scope . Smug also carried a curved knife in a sheath latched onto his belt . Smug used the rifle during his attempt to kill Chewbacca and the Jedi , but after being disarmed of the weapon , he used his knife in an attempt to kill Jinx . After being grabbed by Chewbacca , Smug was forced to drop the knife and was thus deprived of both of his weapons . Smug was also known to operate one of the guild ' s hover pods . During the Tano hunt , Smug ' s clothing consisted of a greenish - gray shirt and a light brown vest . A belt outfitted with the aforementioned knife sheath and several pouches was wrapped around the shirt . Smug also wore black pants with an orange trim . Like all of the Trandoshans in the guild , Smug wore an electronic gauntlet on his wrist . Smug ' s contained a comlink which he used to contact Lo - Taren with . Behind the scenes .
