Scrib was to be executed by Lady Valarian due to a miscalculation amounting to a total of four credits . Jabba , in a rare shred of generosity , wished to save the accountant , in the hope that he would also have some valuable information . The spacer agreed to take up the task , successfully locating the accountant and escorting him safely back to the palace , much to Jabba ' s and G - 5PO ' s relief . After Jabba had a chance to speak to Scrib , it was learned that Lady Valarian did not ever plan to execute him , but to instead interrogate him . On Jabba ' s orders , G - 5PO instructed the spacer to find and kill the interrogator , to get back at Lady Valarian for her past misgivings . The spacer successfully assassinated the individual , further gaining the trust of Jabba . G - 5PO later informed the spacer that Romo Vax uncovered a traitor within Jabba ' s Court , who had not yet been fully identified . However , G - 5PO explained that the traitor had given a message to a Valarian courier . G - 5PO instructed the spacer to find and kill the courier , and retrieve the message so that it could be decoded . The spacer did not let G - 5PO or his master down . The message was retrieved , and left to Bib Fortuna for decoding . Jabba was furious to learn that the decoded message included a schedule of guard changes , which the Valarian ' s hoped to take advantage of to infiltrate his palace . G - 5PO informed the spacer that Jabba wanted him to defeat an incoming Valarian strike team . When the spacer inquired as to what type of strike team needed to be dealt with , Jabba confessed that he did not know for sure , since the Valarian ' s kept their membership a closely guarded secret . The strike team , he believed , could either be a lowly band of thugs , or an elite team of commandos . Fortunately , the strike team proved to be no major challenge to the spacer , who efficiently eliminated the thugs and their team leader . In the meantime , Jabba had another mission for G - 5PO to give to the spacer . A smuggler for Black Sun , who went by the name of Belshu Dadar was selling a mysterious item to the Valarian ' s .

G - 5PO instructed the spacer to find Belshu , and buy the item from him for a price higher than the Valarian ' s . Fortunately , Belshu held no loyalties to the Valarian ' s . He happily gave the spacer the locked briefcase in exchange for the superior amount of credits . The spacer delivered the briefcase to Jabba , and awaited instructions for his next mission . G - 5PO soon informed him that Belshu Dadar was now a loyal underling of Jabba , and that Jabba requested that the spacer eliminate a bounty hunter who was tracking him . The spacer agreed , and successfully eliminated the bounty hunter , saving Belshu as a result . G - 5PO had another task for the spacer , which involved delivering a case of credits to one of Jabba ' s associated , Sliv Jurek , in exchange for a key .

Inside this warehouse was a valuable Rantok Sword , which Jabba wished to display . The spacer sought out Sliv Jurek , successfully retrieving the key . Yet the job was not yet done . G - 5PO had one final task to give to the spacer . Jabba wished for the spacer to infiltrate the warehouse and retrieve the sword himself . When the spacer inquired as to why he was being entrusted with this job , G - 5PO informed him that he would much rather have Boba Fett complete the task , but that his price was far too high . Fortunately , the spacer once again failed to let Jabba down . The warehouse was successfully infiltrated , and the sword was brought back to be properly displayed . G - 5PO had no additional tasks for the spacer , but he informed spacer that he now gained Jabba ' s trust . Personality and traits .
