A Human female bounty hunter took part in the manhunt for Jedi Knight Valin Horn in 43 . 5 ABY . Horn , who had recently developed an enigmatic madness which caused him to believe that everybody he knew had been replaced with an impostor , had been taken to the Jedi Temple to be studied . However , he had quickly escaped and embarked on a destructive rampage through the galactic capital of Coruscant . The Galactic Federation of Free Alliances issued a warrant for his arrest , and several beings — including Jedi , bounty hunters , and Galactic Alliance Security agents — joined the chase . The Human bounty hunter was among the many hunters hired by Chief of State Natasi Daala to be a part of the Chief of State ' s special - missions force . She was partnered with the cyborg mercenary Vrannin Vaxx and the Quarren bounty hunter Dhidal Nyz . The three hunters rode in the bed of a cargo hauler , which was piloted by another being . During the chase , Horn , who had been flying in an antique X - wing starfighter , was attacked by Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker and forced to eject from the fighter . The cargo hauler maneuvered underneath the falling Horn and caught him in the cargo bed . The bounty hunters trained their weapons on the fugitive , but as Nyz ordered Horn to surrender , Jedi Knight Jaina Solo — also hoping to capture Horn — leapt down towards the cargo bed from a speeder above them . While the three hunters were distracted by Solo , Horn grabbed his ejector seat and jumped off the side of the hauler , rocketing away . Solo landed in the cargo bed , and Nyz fired his electric net gun at her . The net caught her and disabled her , causing her to fall over the edge of the hauler . Annoyed by his rash action , the female bounty hunter began to criticize Nyz . Her denigration was cut short , however , as a racing speeder shot by them , causing the hauler ' s pilot to veer to one side . The cargo bed tilted sharply , and Nyz was thrown off of the vehicle . The female hunter fell , but she quickly went into an acrobatic roll and came to a safe stop at the cargo bed ' s low railing . As they began to accelerate back up to speed , they were fired upon by former smuggler Han Solo and his wife , Leia Organa Solo , in their starship , the " Millennium Falcon " . Vaxx was hit , and the cyborg was sent flying into the control cab of the hauler . Smoke began streaming out from the cab , and , with their vehicle disabled , the bounty hunters were forced to give up the chase . Personality and traits . The bounty hunter remained composed when under pressure , although she was easily annoyed with the incompetence of her colleagues . Nevertheless , she willingly worked with a team of bounty hunters during the hunt for Valin Horn . She was also very athletic , and , during the chase , when their vehicle veered off to one side , she managed to turn her fall into a somersault and quickly recover her balance . The woman was tall and had blonde hair . Equipment . The Human female wore a Bantha - hide jacket decorated with several claws and teeth of different colors and sizes , which were sewn onto the jacket . She also carried a Wookiee bowcaster as her weapon of choice during the hunt for Horn . Behind the scenes . This bounty hunter made her first and only appearance in the first novel of the nine - part " " series , " " , by Aaron Allston .
