T ' doshok ( bounty hunter ) T ' doshok was a male Trandoshan bounty hunter during the Clone Wars , the conflict between the Galactic Republic and a separatist faction that had seceded from the galactic government . He had planned to capture Republic Senator Shayla Paige - Tarkin from the planet of Coruscant to give her over to the Separatists in exchange for a large bounty ; however , he was intercepted by Clone Commander " Fox " and the Coruscant Guard , a group of specially trained clone troopers attached to the Senate . Though he tried to run , the Trandoshan was quickly disarmed by the commander and arrested . Biography . T ' doshok , a Trandoshan male bounty hunter , tried to capitalize on the large bounty for members of the Galactic Senate offered by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars between them and the Galactic Republic . He traveled to Coruscant , the Republic ' s capital planet , in an attempt to capture Senator Shayla Paige - Tarkin . Espionage brought news of his plan to Clone Commander " Fox , " leader of a task force of clone troopers called the Coruscant Guard charged with defending the Senate and its members . Fox knew of him before his starship had landed and he mobilized a trooper unit to confront T ' doshok with orders to take him alive . Upon seeing Fox , alone , the bounty hunter attacked with his ACP scatter gun . T ' doshok ' s initial shots missed and he took shelter behind an old speeder , a position from which he let a volley go that barely missed Fox ' s head . The clone raised his blaster and took aim , but did not fire as that would have breached his objective . His target fled through the streets . Fox gave chase and contacted his team . The clones quickly surrounded the T ' doshok who , with nowhere else to run , used his hidden jetpack to fly to a nearby rooftop . Fox used an ascension gun to scale the building and climb to the roof while the Trandoshan fired at him . The clone took cover and fired several warning shots before telling T ' doshok to surrender . The bounty hunter refused and squeezed the trigger of his gun . However , Fox took advantage of the Trandoshan species ' naturally slow firing rate and shot the gun out of the alien ' s hands . Fox once again told the bounty hunter to surrender , but the commander noticed that he was looking for a way to escape . He threatened to shoot the Trandoshan out of the sky if he tried to use his jetpack again . T ' doshok knew that he had lost , so he gave in and was taken into custody by the Guard . Personality and traits . T ' doshok , a male Trandoshan , worked as a bounty hunter in the galaxy and had brown scales and orange eyes . He knew at least some of his native language , Dosh , and could speak Galactic Basic Standard , though not well grammatically . Armed with an ACP scatter gun as his primary weapon , he also carried a jetpack on his back for quick escapes . The bounty hunter was willing to attempt a bounty that no - one had ever collected successfully as a quick way to a large sum of credits . When he was confronted by Fox , he became visibly nervous , but he refused defiantly to surrender and opened fire on the clone . T ' doshok showed that he was not very accurate with his blaster , though some of his shots nearly hit their mark . He had a slow trigger finger , but that was not uncommon for his species . The tenacious bounty hunter only surrendered , reluctantly , to Fox ' s men when there was no chance of escape . Behind the scenes . T ' doshok appeared in the four - page eBook " Out Foxed " by Rob Valois , published in 2008 . In the story , he uttered the phrase " T ' doshok no surrender , " which may have been a reference to his species , as the " Ultimate Alien Anthology " ( 2003 ) stated that that is the name for the species in their native language . This would have made sense with his species ' backstory , as they worshiped a deity called the Scorekeeper , who tallied " jagannath " points for everything a Trandoshan hunter did . Trandoshans did not surrender because to be caught alive or shamed meant that the Scorekeeper would reset an individual ' s tally and invalidate their life ' s work . However , four years later , " The Essential Reader ' s Companion " by Pablo Hidalgo stated in a small " dramatis personae " for the short story that this was the bounty hunter ' s name , so he was speaking in the third person .
