Gjon Gjon , also known as Honest Gjon , was a male H ' drachi who lived on the various moons of Bogden during the Clone Wars . Gjon owned a landing pad on the moon of Bogg 4 and a repair shop on Bogg 11 . However , Gjon was actually a crook and would steal starships parked on the landing pad , taking them to his repair shop , where he tore them apart for scrap . In 22 BBY , the Human youth Boba Fett landed on Gjon ' s pad . Fett ' s ship , " Slave I " , was damaged in the landing , and so Gjon agreed to take it to his shop and fix it . However , Gjon was planning to melt Fett ' s ship down , and so he took " Slave I " to Bogg 11 . Before Gjon could tear it apart , he was confronted by Fett and his new friend Aia , who had helped Fett find Gjon after the boy discovered that " Slave I " was missing . Gjon gave " Slave I " back to Fett , who harbored no hard feelings over the incident . Gjon , Aia and Fett then worked together to steal credits . The three flew " Slave I " into space above Bogg 2 , where counterfeit credits were being smuggled from Bogg 2 to Bogg 9 . The trio intercepted two hot air balloon s with gondolas full of credits , although a security officer was hiding in the second balloon that they took aboard " Slave I " . Fett quickly accelerated " Slave I " , throwing the security officer off - balance . Gjon and Aia were then able to push him out the ship ' s open hatch , although the money they had stolen flew out during the scuffle . After this incident , Fett dropped Gjon and Aia off on one of Bogden ' s moons , and headed to Coruscant . Biography . The male H ' drachi Gjon , or Honest Gjon as he liked to call himself , ran a repair shop on the moon known as Bogg 11 , and also owned a landing pad on Bogg 4 , another nearby moon of Bogden , in the Inner Rim Territories . He had a cybernetic tool implant in place of his right arm to aid with repairs . In 22 BBY , the young Human Boba Fett , an aspiring bounty hunter , landed on Gjon ' s pad on Bogg 4 in his ship , " Slave I " . Gjon was prepared to charge Fett a landing fee , but when Gjon pointed out that " Slave I " needed a landing strut repaired , Fett agreed to let him fix it for 200 credits and Gjon waived the landing fee , ostensibly as a show of his generosity . Fett then walked off to town along with a Humanoid native named Aia , who led the boy to the Bonny Bounty cantina . However , Gjon had no intention of fixing " Slave I " . He started the ship and flew to Bogg 11 , preparing to melt the ship down for parts . Fett discovered that his ship was missing but knew of no way to get it back . Aia , a native of the moons , knew of a method to cross from one moon to another when the atmospheres overlapped . When this happened , gravity was substantially weakened in certain places on the moons , enabling one to travel up through one moon ' s atmosphere and into the other if they could successfully ride the gravity - weakened patches . Aia was able to carry Fett as he glided up through the sky , using the decreased gravity to jump from Bogg 4 to Bogg 11 as the moons ' exospheres briefly crossed . Aia and Fett then caught up with Gjon at his shop before he could tear the ship down . Having been caught , Gjon relented , returning " Slave I " to Fett . Gjon then decided to team up with Fett and Aia to make some money , with Gjon insisting that if Fett intended to travel to Coruscant as he wished to , the boy would need more money . Gjon claimed that he knew of a smuggling operation delivering counterfeit money from Bogg 2 to Bogg 9 , and that with a good ship , they could likely intercept some of the hot air balloons carrying the credits . Fett flew " Slave I " into space just above Bogg 2 , where he sat and waited along with Gjon and Aia . The trio grabbed the second balloon that floated by , bringing it into " Slave I " , and found it full of counterfeit credits . On Gjon ' s advice , the group decided to snatch another balloon in hopes of gaining even more money . However , the next balloon they grabbed contained a security officer , armed with a blaster . The officer demanded that the three give up the ship and jump out the open hatch . With some quick thinking , Fett set " Slave I " to accelerate suddenly in four seconds , which threw everyone off - balance . Gjon and Aia recovered first and threw the officer out the ship before he could react . Though Fett was worried over the possible penalties he might face for murdering a security officer , Gjon revealed that the officer had been just a regular criminal , attempting to con them into giving up their ship . While the three had avoided death , they had lost almost all the credits they had stolen when " Slave I " accelerated , as the money had flown out the ship ' s hatch . Gjon insisted on giving Fett the remaining 100 credits , and then Fett set the ship down on Bogg 4 , letting Gjon and Aia off . Gjon said goodbye to Fett before the boy departed for Coruscant and advised him not to be so trusting . Personality and traits . Gjon was an unscrupulous being . He felt no qualms about letting Boba Fett — a young boy — believe that he would fix his ship , when in reality he was planning to steal it and tear it apart . Gjon relented when caught , however . Aia considered Gjon to have a sense of honor , and he told Fett that he was confident that once Gjon had been caught he would give the boy his ship back . The H ' drachi also felt that there was nothing wrong with stealing counterfeit money , as the money was illegally created anyway . Gjon came to respect Fett , and he gave the ambitious young Human advice when the two parted ways . Behind the scenes . Gjon was created for the 2002 young reader novel " " , written by Terry Bisson . He is a minor character in the story . Gjon serves as an antagonist at first , as he initially robs Boba Fett before helping him . " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " refers to Gjon as an M ' haeli from Bogg 4 . However , M ' haeli is actually a planet , the native world of the H ' drachi , Gjon ' s species . This article makes the assumption that Gjon is native to Bogg 4 , as " Boba Fett : The Fight to Survive " seems to indicate .
