After parting ways with Boba , Sing took jobs from Ziro the Hutt and Cad Bane . Biography . Early life . A feared bounty hunter known for her chalk - white skin and built - in comlink antenna , Aurra Sing was an expert sniper and trained assassin who would work for anyone who paid her . She was a known associate of Jango Fett and was at one point involved in a relationship with Hondo Ohnaka . On Nar Shaddaa , she and fellow bounty hunters Cad Bane and Vorhdeilo met Sith Lord , Darth Maul . Sing picked up a transmission that Jedi were on their way to Hutta Town to investigate . Together with Bane ' s group , despite Sing ' s suspicions about Maul , they attended Xev Xrexus ' s Cartel ' s auction of the Jedi Padawan Eldra Kaitis . During the auction , Sing , Bane , and Vorhdeilo spoke with Maul aboard their ship . Together , they planned to take Kaitis from Jee Kra , who had successfully won the padawan in the auction . Sing and her compatriots killed Kra ' s crew . Sing , Maul and the others met Kra and Kaitis at his ship . After Maul subdued Kra and his remaining crew , Sing spoke with Bane about about leaving or killing Maul after their job was done . Having discovered the theft , Xrexus ordered the ship shot down . After the group crashed onto the the moon of Drazkel below , Xrexus allowed the rest of the bidders to hunt them down for sport and offered Kaitis to anyone who captured her . Maul and Kaitis split off from the group to distract the hunters , instructing the bounty hunters to steal a ship . Turning the tables on the hunters , Bane , Sing , and Vorhdeilo set a trap . Bane lured a group of Trandoshan hunters into a kill zone , where Sing sniped them from a distance and Vorhdeilo attacked them at close range . Ten years before the start of the Clone Wars , Sing was on the Outer Rim world of Tatooine during the time of the Boonta Eve Classic . Sing watched the pod race from a balcony on Beggar ' s Canyon . The Clone Wars . Joining Boba Fett . During the Clone Wars , Sing joined up with Boba Fett to kill Mace Windu for revenge for Boba ' s father , who Windu had killed on Geonosis . Boba , under the name of " Lucky " , boarded the " Endurance " as a clone cadet . After his first attempt on Windu ' s life failed , he contacted Sing to ask for advice . Sing told him to blow up the reactor s , much to Boba ' s surprise . After Boba successfully destroyed the " Endurance ' s " reactors , sending it crashing towards Vanqor , he got into one of the escape pod s along with several of the other cadet s . Once they were away from the plummeting vessel , the pod was docked by " Slave I " . Bossk and Sing entered the pod to confront Boba . After telling him that the other cadets must be launched into space , due to the fact that they were " living witnesses " , Boba reluctantly came aboard " Slave I " and jettisoned the pod from " Slave I ' s " docking area . Although the group of bounty hunters escaped , the cadets were saved by Anakin Skywalker and Windu , who had escaped the " Endurance " in their Jedi Starfighters . She later abducted Admiral Kilian , Commander Ponds , and a naval officer from the crash site of the " Endurance " on Vanqor . After Skywalker and Windu triggered their bomb in the crash site , Boba convinced Sing to go back there and get the two Jedis ' heads to bring to Count Dooku , who might pay them for their trouble . Sing , along with Boba and Castas , went to the crash site . Due to the ship falling apart , and R2 - D2 ' s interference , Sing decided to blow up the crash site . As they left , Bossk contacted Sing , telling that a explosion happened near where the Jedi landed . Sing then ordered Bossk to jam all transmissions from the planet . When Sing and her team returned to " Slave I " , they saw Windu ' s Jedi starfighter taking off . Unbeknownst to Sing , only R2 - D2 was aboard . Though " Slave I " took out the Jedi fighter ' s communications , Artoo reached the hyperspace rings and escaped . Knowing that Windu would not hold a grudge against them , she decided to motivate Windu by using the hostages . When contacting Windu to come and find her , Sing shot Ponds , after Boba wouldn ' t do it . The group of bounty hunters then docked on Florrum for a visit with Sing ' s old flame Ohnaka to see if he would give them any advice . During a visit in the bar with Hondo , Sing overheard Castas communicating via hologram to a friend on Coruscant . After hearing him calling her an old hag , she shot him . Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano later caught up with her . After having a quarrel in a room , Sing fled , leaving a discouraged Boba behind . Tano chased her , but after getting an order from Koon , she went to free the hostages . Sing got suspicious , so she went to go and stop the Padawan . After Tano pursued her , she fled on " Slave I " , but because of a wing failure caused by Tano , the ship crashed . Sing was presumed dead by the Jedi . Unknown to them , Hondo salvaged her out of " Slave I " s wreckage . Working for Ziro . Sing was later hired by Ziro the Hutt to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala in retaliation for imprisoning him . She tracked the Senator to Alderaan , where Amidala was due for a conference on refugee concerns . Infiltrating the conference through the vents and snapping the neck of several Senate Commando s , Sing set up a sniper position . Only the timely intervention of Tano gave Amidala a flesh wound , forcing Sing to flee . Sing later made a second attempt on Amidala ' s life when she tracked down the Senator , not being fooled by the BD - 3000 luxury droid acting in her place . But once again , Tano interfered . Sing outdrew Tano as she grazed the Padawan , but Amidala used a stun blaster on her . Sing was then arrested and brought to Coruscant . Senate hostages . Later in the Clone Wars , Sing escaped Republic captivity and teamed up with Cad Bane ' s bounty hunter team for the raid on the Republic Senate Building . During the hostage siege Aurra covered Bane ' s entrance to the building by taking out the Senate Commando s who attempted to stop him with a sniper rifle . After Bane eliminated the remaining Senate Commandos , Aurra shot a dying one . Later she aided Shahan Alama in searching for the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker , whose presence in the Senate Building threatened to thwart Bane ' s plan . Eventually , with the help of Robonino they managed to render Skywalker unconscious . When the Hutt crime lord was freed , Sing successfully left the crime scene along with the rest of the group . Personality and traits . Aurra Sing was one of the most powerful and ruthless bounty hunters in the galaxy . She had no qualms about killing , whether it be wounded clone trooper s or former partners such as Castas . Despite her ruthlessness , Sing was also somewhat of a mother to Boba Fett during his teenage years , sometimes addressing him as " honey " and stopping him from drinking alcohol in Hondo Ohnaka ' s bar . She was also very selfish and abandoned Fett to save herself after the boy was captured by Plo Koon . She also tried to get the boy to murder the helpless Commander Ponds and , when he hesitated , she simply shoved him aside and killed Ponds herself . Aurra Sing also had a romantic relationship with Hondo Ohnaka , and though they were no longer lovers , Ohnaka still referred to her as " my dear . " Consequently , after Sing and Boba arrived at Ohnaka ' s base , he asked if Boba was his son . Even with their past , Ohnaka refused to help Sing when she tried to lure Ahsoka Tano and Plo Koon into a trap . Behind the scenes .

Chiang had made the sketch as a result of George Lucas ' request to have more characters fill out the podracing sequence in " " .
