Fett took the sculpture , which the insects were attracted to , and hurled it away into the depths of the ship and used the distraction to escape . Somaz begged Fett to save him and offered payment , which Fett accepted . The bounty hunter later revealed he had saved the treasure hunter as there was a bounty on his head . Biography . Somaz was a male Dressellian who worked as a treasure hunter , devoting most of his adult life to finding the artefact known as the Arachedron sculpture and at some point in the process getting a large bounty placed on his head . In the year 2 ABY , Somaz spent weeks searching for the sculpture aboard the luxury cruiser " Reverie " which lay wrecked in a Starship Graveyard at the edge of the galaxy . He was eventually successful in finding the sculpture , which made up the head of a multi - armed statue located deep within the ship . To retrieve the Arachedron sculpture , Somaz killed one of the many spider - like Arachedron creatures that lived on the ship and seemed to be attracted to the sculpture . Wearing the creatures corpse to disguise himself the treasure hunter made his way to the statue and scaled it , but as he reached the top the Mandalorian bounty hunter Boba Fett and the two bounty hunting Strom brothers , Edo and Rolu approached the statue . The three hunters explained that they were there to claim the valuable artifact for themselves , and demanded Somaz hand it over . The Dresssellian cursed his luck and removed the sculpture , causing a huge number of Arachedron to become frenzied and attack all four hunters . As the group fought of the insects Somaz explained that it was the artifact that the creatures wanted , not them . Coming to the decision that the value of the artifact wasn ' t worth his life , Fett took the sculpture from Somaz and hurled it into the depths of the ship , causing the Arachedron to follow . Horrified at Fett ' s decision Rolu leapt at the Mandalorian and cursed him before leaping after it into the abyss . Edo reached to try and save his brother but failed , prompting Somaz to try and pull back Edo and persuade him it was time to leave . Edo refused to leave though and followed his brother into the depths of the collapsing ship , returning Fett ' s jetpack first . As the ship came down around them Somaz begged Fett to help him get out alive and offered to pay him 50 , 000 if he saved him . Fett asked for 100 , 000 , to which Somaz agreed and so the Mandalorian used his jetpack to carry Somaz to safety . As the pair left the graveyard in Fett ' s ship , " Slave I " , the treasure hunter transferred Fett the promised money . after which Fett revealed he had recognized Somaz and new there was a bounty on him , which the bounty hunter planned to claim . Personality and traits . Somaz devoted most of his adult life to hunting the Arachedron sculpture , being dedicated enough to spend weeks alone searching for it in a dangerous and abandoned cruiser .

After retrieving the sculpture he was willing to sacrifice it , and almost every credit he owned to save his own life . Once safe he admitted that the Strom ' s brothers suicidal pursuit of the sculpture had scared him but reflected that he might of done the same . Somaz had brown skin and eyes and was without hair . Whilst on the " Reverie " he wore a brown cloak along with a brown shirt and pants . He also made use of a pair of red goggles . Behind the scenes .
