Fnnbu was a male Zexx associate of pirate Captain Finhead Stonebone during the time leading up to the Great Sith War . In 3999 BBY , Fnnbu accompanied a group consisting of both Stonebone ' s pirate gang and enforcers in the employ of the Stenness Node – based crime lord Bogga the Hutt , on a mission to the desolate planet Ambria . The ensemble was sent by Bogga to retrieve a lost shipment of Adegan crystal s from Bogga ' s sworn enemy , Jedi Master Thon , in exchange for Bogga ' s granting of freedom to Stonebone ' s crew , who had been captured after a failed raid on an Ithullian ore hauler . The group descended onto Ambria ' s surface adjacent to Master Thon ' s compound , and soon encountered Master Thon , who to their surprise refused to fight back . One of Bogga ' s men soon found the Adegan crystals , although the enforcer refused to share them with the pirates . While Fnnbu and Stonebone argued with the enforcers over who would claim credit for the discovery of the crystals , Thon ' s Jedi apprentice , Nomi Sunrider , used a Force power called battle meditation , hoping to influence the minds of the invading crew to turn them against each other . Fnnbu was the first to fall under the will of Nomi Sunrider ' s battle meditation . Stepping to the forefront , Fnnbu demanded that he handle the crystals , promising to guard them for Bogga the Hutt . However , when the enforcers refused , Fnnbu flew into a violent rage , claiming the crystals belonged to him and attacking both friend and foe alike . A large brawl broke out between the enforcers and the pirates , and eventually pirates and enforcers were fighting beings on their own respective sides . Fnnbu personally squared off with C ' borp , a fellow pirate and chief gunner on the pirate ship " Marauder Starjacker " . While the pirates and enforcers were fighting each other , Nomi Sunrider ignited her lightsaber and attacked the group . Fnnbu and the rest were caught unawares , and Fnnbu was quickly slain by the Jedi trainee . Personality and traits . Fnnbu was a gruff , imposing pirate in Finhead Stonebone ' s pirate gang .
