Losha Tarkon

Losha Tarkon was a human female and the partner of the former bounty hunter T'onga. Tarkon and T'onga lived together on the Moon of Logal Ri, where they planned to live as farmers. However, after Nakano Lash, who was responsible for the death of T'onga's brother T'ongor, supposedly resurfaced, T'onga left to hunt her down. Tarkon attempted to stop T'onga from leaving, but was unable to change her mind.
Tarkon later found an injured T'onga on Ruusan, where the two reunited, and assembled a crew, and set off to find Cadeliah, the heir to Mourner's Wail and Unbroken Clan crime syndicates.

Tarkon approached T'onga while the latter was leaving the farm, and asked her if she was planning to leave without saying goodbye, wishing to see T'onga alive at the end of the mission. After touching their foreheads together, T'onga revealed her reason for leaving while entering her starship. Tarkon reminded the former hunter that she promised to abandon her bounty hunting life and spend the rest of her days planting crops, as the farmer did not wish to dig a grave for the former hunter. Tarkon could only watch and cry as T'onga departed the moon aboard her starship to begin her hunt for Lash. Little did Tarkon know, after a journey with Beilert Valance, Boba Fett incapacitated T'onga in the orbit of Ruusan in a skirmish involving Lash, Fett, and Valance, in which Lash was killed.Bounty Hunters 5
