Boba Fett

Boba Fett was a human male crime lord and former bounty hunter whose career spanned decades, from the fall of the Galactic Republic to the end of the rule of the Galactic Empire. Originally code-named Alpha, he was an unaltered clone of the famed Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett who raised the boy as his son. Boba emulated his father and genetic donor by wearing his suit of Mandalorian armor. His personal starship was the Slave I, a Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft that once belonged to Jango. Trained in combat and martial skills from a young age, Fett was one of the most feared bounty hunters in the galaxy during the reign of Emperor Palpatine. He became a legend over the course of his career, which included contracts for both the Empire and the extensive criminal underworld. After living among the Tusken Raiders of Tatooine for a time, he took over as Daimyo of Mos Espa during the era of the New Republic.
Boba was created on the Wild Space planet of Kamino as a result of an arrangement between the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus and Jango Fett, a Mandalorian foundling who served as the template of the Grand Army of the Republic. Unlike the clone troopers grown from Jango's DNA, Jango regarded Boba as his son. During the last days of the Separatist Crisis, Boba and Jango retreated to Geonosis where the latter was killed in battle by Jedi Master Mace Windu. Orphaned by Jango's death, Boba sought vengeance by attempting to assassinate Windu, although his plan proved unsuccessful. After serving time in prison on Coruscant, Fett began working alongside other mercenaries, such as Bossk, Dengar, and Asajj Ventress, while also notably apprenticing himself to his father's infamous protégée, Cad Bane. In the aftermath of the Clone Wars, Fett continued to make a name for himself while working for the gangster Jabba Desilijic Tiure as well as the Sith Lord Darth Vader. During the Galactic Civil War, the bounty hunter managed to track down the Jedi Padawan Luke Skywalker on Tatooine, and later Captain Han Solo to Bespin on a contract for the Galactic Empire, soon delivering him to Jabba's Palace on Tatooine. Fett tried to prevent Solo's rescue by the Alliance to Restore the Republic, only to fall into the Great Pit of Carkoon when the smuggler accidentally slammed a pole into the bounty hunter's jetpack, causing it to malfunction.
Although Fett survived his ordeal with the man-eating sarlacc, his armor was sold to Cobb Vanth by Jawa scavengers. Following a time in the company of a Tusken tribe, Fett eventually regained his armor by tracking down and confronting the Mandalorian warrior Din Djarin on Tython, who took Fett's armor from Vanth. After helping Djarin to rescue the foundling Grogu from the clutches of Moff Gideon, the ex-bounty-hunter returned to Tatooine where he killed Bib Fortuna and claimed the late Jabba's throne as Daimyo with Fennec Shand by his side. Now the head of his own gotra, Fett intended to rule the territories of Mos Espa by winning the people's respect, though he would face several major challenges to his position such as the Twins' bid for power and the expansion of the Pyke Syndicate's spice trade. Ultimately, though, Fett overcame all obstacles - including a confrontation with his old mentor, Cad Bane - and emerged victorious with the help of his associates, gaining the appreciation and approval of Mos Espa's denizens.

==== The Clone Wars ====
===== The death of Jango Fett =====
Shortly before the outbreak of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, Jango was sent on a mission to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala, an outspoken opponent of a potential war, at the behest of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Jango was accompanied by Zam Wesell, whom he sent to launch the assassination attempt. Wesell ultimately failed to kill the senator, and Jango was tracked to Kamino by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, who knew a bounty hunter connected to Kamino was behind the attempt on Amidala's life. Upon Jango's return, Boba noticed the absence of Zam. Though he managed to figure out what had happened, he ultimately chose not to ask Jango what had occurred. Eventually, Kenobi arrived on Kamino, where the Kaminoans revealed the existence of the clone army to him, prompting Kenobi to request to meet Jango. Taun We, an aide to Prime Minister Lama Su, brought the Jedi Knight to the Fetts' quarters, where Boba greeted them. Despite being distrustful of the Jedi's presence, Boba allowed them to enter, where Kenobi spoke with Jango. Knowing that he had been discovered, Jango and Boba immediately prepared to leave Kamino once Kenobi departed.
While loading Slave I to leave, Kenobi discovered the Fetts attempting to flee and engaged Jango in one-on-one combat, fighting across the ship's landing platform. During the fight, Boba engaged the ship's blaster cannons and fired at Kenobi repeatedly in an attempt to kill him. As the fight progressed, Kenobi kicked Jango from the landing platform towards the ocean below, causing the Jedi—who was attached to the bounty hunter by a wire—to fall as well. Jango cut the wire and was able to make his way back up the platform, while Kenobi landed on the lower levels. This gave Jango enough time to reach the ship and leave as Boba piloted it, though Kenobi arrived on the platform again in time to attach a tracking device to its hull. Jango and Boba made their way to Geonosis, where the Separatist leaders had gathered. While en route, Kenobi caught up with them and engaged them in a firefight in the asteroid field surrounding Geonosis. The Fetts were able to evade the Jedi, and Jango shot a number of seismic charges into space in an effort to destroy Kenobi's starfighter. Kenobi was able to fake his ship's destruction by ejecting spare parts that exploded from a tracking missile, leading the Fetts to think he was dead. They proceeded to the planet's surface, while Kenobi remained hidden in the asteroid field before pursuing them.
Shortly after the Fetts' arrival at Geonosis, Kenobi began investigating the Separatists on the planet and was captured by the Geonosians. His capture prompted Senator Amidala and Kenobi's Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, to attempt a rescue of their friend. Jango and the Geonosians captured them, and all three detainees were brought into an execution arena, where Boba watched with his father from the sidelines as the detainees fought off the creatures that were meant to kill them. A team of Jedi, led by Master Mace Windu, soon arrived to rescue them. Windu held a lightsaber to Jango's throat while threatening Count Dooku, but Windu quickly left the stands for the arena below as Separatist battle droids began flooding the arena. The battle droids and Jedi engaged one another in the arena. As the battle proceeded, Jango joined the fight, where the jetpack on his armor was damaged and rendered inoperable, leaving him more vulnerable to attack. Despite the setback, Jango faced off against Windu, who beheaded and killed the bounty hunter. Boba watched in horror as his father was killed. Once the battle left the arena, Boba emerged from his hiding place to pick up his father's helmet, pressing it against his head. With Jango Fett dead, Boba created a makeshift grave, creating his father's initials out of droid parts.
While the Grand Army of the Republic and the Separatist Droid Army clashed for the very first time, Boba departed Geonosis aboard Slave I and returned to Kamino to collect a datapad Jango had left for him in the event of his untimely death. Upon his return, Boba found the datapad, which turned out to be a guide for his survival in the galaxy. Within it was the name of a man whom Boba should seek out for help, that being Count Dooku. Unbeknownst to Boba however, Dooku had already hired bounty hunter Aurra Sing to retrieve Fett, believing him to be a risk due to knowing his Sith identity. Sing managed to locate Boba, and brought him to Raxus Prime to meet with Dooku. The Sith Lord showed compassion and sympathy towards Boba, stating that he had an obligation to raise the son of Jango, and that he looked forward to watching his future unfold.
Boba was soon taken to his new room in the mansion, though was given strict guidelines as to where he could and could not go. Out of boredom, Boba left his room to explore, where he witnessed the mining operation taking place. The young boy spoke to a few of the workers where he discovered that they were searching for a piece of a Sith artefact known as the Force Harvester. Boba attempted to return to his room before getting caught, though was soon found by a guard who brought him before Dooku. The Count saw through Boba's attempts at deceiving him, and insulted the boy, remarking that he was clumsy in getting caught, and a poor liar. Dooku responded to Boba's defensiveness by stating that he was wrong about the young boy, and that getting rid of him would be the best course of action. Boba attempted to blackmail Dooku, by claiming to have informed another being of his Sith identity, which would be leaked if any harm were to come to him. Dooku, however, called the child's bluff, and ordered Boba's execution. However, before having any opportunity to act, a Republic attack ensued, ultimately allowing Fett to escape.
===== Quest for vengeance =====
The death of his father took a heavy toll on Boba, who blamed all of his troubles on the Jedi Order: specifically Jedi Master Mace Windu. Boba managed to convince Aurra Sing, as well as bounty hunters Bossk and Castas, to help Boba kill Windu. To this end, Boba disguised himself as a member of the Clone Youth Brigade called 'Lucky'. The group went to visit the Venator-class Star Destroyer Endurance, where Windu was stationed with Anakin Skywalker. While Boba was determined to kill Windu, he was often sidetracked by the crew of the Endurance, who tasked Boba and other Clone Youths to participate in a skeet shooting accuracy test, which Boba passed with flying colors.
While the group was touring the hallways of the cruiser, Boba managed to sneak out undetected and planted a tripwire triggered bomb in Windu's private quarters. His attempt was nearly successful, as Windu was only saved by chance by a clone trooper, who inadvertently triggered the tripwire instead. With the cruiser on high alert, Aurra Sing urged Fett to bring down the entire cruiser by destroying the main reactor. Though it was against his own wishes, as Fett's desire was to kill only Windu, Fett was forced to go through with her command, and infiltrated the reactor chamber, where he coaxed a clone trooper into handing over his blaster. Using the blaster, Fett destroyed the reactor, compromising the entire ship. Fett managed to regroup with the Youth Brigade as they were loading onto the ship's supply of escape pods. Upon ejection, Fett disabled the pod, allowing the other bounty hunters to pick him up in the Slave I.
Upon discovering that Windu was still alive, Fett and his allies traveled to the crash site. As Windu would inevitably search the crash site for any survivors, Fett rigged a trap: he placed a motion activated bomb inside of his father's Mandalorianhelmet, which would explode when picked up. Sing also took the time to execute any survivors of the crash, save for Admiral Shoan Kilian and Commander Ponds, as well as an unidentified clone, who she took as hostages. Fett objected to this, as did Castas, who both agreed that the situation was getting out of hand. Windu managed to survive the helmet trap, which was triggered by Anakin Skywalker. The resulting explosion incinerated half of his father's helmet and caused the cruiser's bridge to collapse, pinning the Jedi under the rubble. Skywalker's astromech droid, R2-D2, managed to lure the crew of the Slave I off the planet using Windu's starfighter.
Fett was also objected to Sing's treatment of the prisoners, and showed compassion to Killian by giving him water. Following the Endurance incident, Sing executed Ponds in a holotransmission to Windu, after Boba refused to do it himself. Sing hoped his death would lure Windu to them. After the execution, Sing chose to take refuge on Florrum, where she hoped to get the assistance of her former lover, Hondo Ohnaka, a notorious spice pirate. In a bar on Florrum, Sing overheard a plot by Castas to turn the others in for a bounty, and responded by casually killing him with one shot from a blaster. Her emotionless brutality deeply affected Fett, who really started to see all the horrors he created.
This murder would allow the Jedi to trace Fett and the others to Florrum. However, because of Windu's injuries, Jedi Master Plo Koon and Skywalker's Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, were sent to bring him in. This enraged Fett, who demanded Windu. This confrontation would culminate in a swift firefight in Ohnaka's bar, which began with Fett carelessly taking a shot at Tano. Fett, abandoned by Sing, was apprehended by Koon. Koon brought Fett to Ohnaka, who gave Fett a lecture about his father's honor. Ohnaka managed to convince Fett to give the coordinates of the Slave I and the hostages, being held at riflepoint by Bossk. Ahsoka Tano freed the hostages and destroyed one of the flight stabilizers on the Slave I, causing Aurra Sing and the Slave I to crash into a nearby canyon, heavily damaging Fett's ship.
Following the Florrum incident, Fett and Bossk were taken to a Republic prison on Coruscant, where Fett had the chance to talk to Windu directly. While Fett declared he regretted his actions, he would never forgive Windu or the Jedi Order.
===== Imprisonment =====
Boba was imprisoned on Coruscant for his actions during the assassination attempts. During his time in prison, a Republic plan was put in motion aimed at preventing a suspected kidnapping plot against Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine. To do so, Obi-Wan Kenobi faked his death and disguised himself as Rako Hardeen, the suspect in the attempt on his life, and entered the same prison where Boba was being held. Kenobi teamed with Moralo Eval, a suspect in the suspected kidnapping plot, and bounty hunter Cad Bane to escape the prison in the hopes it would lead him towards the heart of the conspiracy. As part of the escape attempt, Bane paid and encouraged Boba to confront "Hardeen," and Boba claimed that Hardeen had cheated him out of a bounty. Boba and Kenobi briefly fought one another, before Bossk intervened and started a riot to defend Boba. Bane's plan was successful, however, Kenobi eventually went on to help stop the plot against Chancellor Palpatine.
After Bane's recapture, Boba called him out for having been recaptured so quickly after Boba's distraction. Bane then asked to tell him the story, to which Boba replied that he hoped it would end with Bane repaying him the money he promised for creating the earlier distraction. After asking further about their cut of the deal, Bane revealed that "Hardeen" had not actually killed Kenobi, before going into the story of what transpired from Bane's perspective. After hearing Bane's full recounting, Boba interjected his distaste for the Jedi before informing Bane of a plan he and Bossk had concocted which would involve Bane and the use of his blasters.

=== Imperial era ===
====Visiting the Lodge====
In 10 BBY, Boba Fett, accompanied by Dengar, visited the Lodge on the cold mountain planet Vandor. The pair were present when Crimson Dawn agents Tobias Beckett, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Qi'ra visited the saloon in hopes of recruiting Captain Lando Calrissian and his co-pilot L3-37 to help with their upcoming heist on Kessel. Following a game of sabacc between Solo and Calrissian, Fett overheard the latter praise Beckett for killing Aurra Sing, Fett’s old mentor. Fett and Dengar later witnessed a fight break out between L3-37 and Ralakili, as Calrissian attempted to break it up, before Beckett’s crew left the Lodge to complete their mission for Crimson Dawn. Unbeknownst to Fett, Solo would go on to become an ally, and later a key target throughout the rest of his bounty hunting career.
====Capturing Caij Vanda====
In 9 BBY, Fett was hired to capture fellow bounty hunter Caij Vanda, whom he had met before. Vanda had started a fight with Jedi Knight Cal Kestis on the planet Koboh, but was ultimately defeated. As Vanda stood up to continue the duel, Fett slowly descended from the air using his jetpack. Unaware that Fett was coming to capture her, Vanda tried offering Fett the opportunity to capture Kestis and split the bounty, but Fett soon revealed his holopuck for Vanda. Desperate and uncertain, Vanda pulled a blaster and thermal detonator out on the pair, to which Fett instinctively raised his blaster and wrist gauntlet at both his fellow hunter and the Jedi. The trio stood in silence waiting for one of them to make their move. Eventually, Vanda shot at Fett, causing Fett to shoot the blaster out of her hand in response. Seeing that Vanda was distracted, Kestis used the Force to throw her thermal detonator away.
Fett immediately tied up her legs and pulled her to the ground. As Kestis went to take a step forward, Fett turned around and aimed his blaster at him, warning him not to come any closer. Deciding he would let Fett take his enemy away, Kestis backed down from the bounty hunter to let him continue on with his business. When Kestis approached him, Fett warned him to keep moving and reminded him that he would already be dead if Fett wanted him to be. Vanda then advised Kestis to leave, stating that Fett was not a fan of the Jedi, which Fett claimed was an understatement. Fett revealed that he knew what Jedi were capable of, and that he did not pity their fate. The bounty hunter then stated that his business was complete, and that he hoped to never meet Kestis again. Fett took in the view as the Jedi Knight left, before eventually departing with his bounty.
====The Carajam jobs====
At some point during the Galactic Civil War, Fett killed a rebel pilot on Carajam, a planet in the Outer Rim. While transporting his bounty aboard a droid mount on the desert world's surface, he came across a campsite inhabited by the bounty hunter Zingo Gabnit, his associate Turfitch, and another human whom Gabnit was about to execute. The group saw and recognized Fett from a distance, leading the human to flee while Gabnit and Turfitch prepared to fight. Fett passed straight through the camp, and eventually arrived at a town and brought the pilot's corpse into a cantina, where his skills were commended by various patrons, including a Neimoidian and a Trandoshan. Fett met with a Twi'lek Guild Agent who compensated Fett 50,000 credits for the job, and suggested taking a deal on the Jorgan Spa to relax. The hunter began looking for new bounties instead, with the agent suggesting that Fett hunt down Gabnit, an accused Rebel collaborator who had also killed Guild hunters, leading to an 100,000 credit price on his head.
Another bounty hunter overheard the reward and jumped at the chance to take it, but backed down after an intimidating stare from Fett. The hunter offered to buy Fett a drink and breathed a sigh of relief when he left the cantina instead. Fett traveled into the desert and found Turfitch, who had warned Gabnit of his coming and had been mortally wounded so that Gabnit could steal his water and survive the march across the Death Plains. Fett provided water to Turfitch, who asked for assurance that Fett would kill Gabnit. He pointed Fett towards Gabnit's path and Fett spotted him with his binoculars, firing a non-lethal shot towards him, which caused Turfitch to laugh as he succumbed to his wounds.
Fett followed Gabnit's trail, arriving by nightfall at a village where the blue-skinned hunter had tied up many of its inhabitants. One of the villagers requested Fett's help, and he fired a shot in the air with his blaster to signal his arrival. Gabnit challenged Fett to come inside the building he occupied to talk and Gabnit monologued on his background, insisting that he had been a straight-laced Guild hunter until Imperial dishonesty drove him to break Guild rules. He claimed that, like Fett, he was the best around, and offered Fett the chance to leave and receive three times the Guild's fee later, or a fight in which case Gabnit would kill all of the villagers. Fett ran into the building that Gabnit's voice came from, only finding a comlink and a thermal detonator, which Gabnit activated. Fett escaped the explosion with his jetpack and came under blasterfire from Gabnit, who was lying on a nearby ridge.
Still flying, Fett aimed his flamethrower at Gabnit, briefly knocking him back. He attempted to fire on Fett, who flew down to kick him into the ground, causing Gabnit to drop his blaster. Gabnit acknowledged his defeat and reiterated his offer, promising to give Fett several shards he had acquired. Fett kept his blaster aimed at Gabnit while he implored him to accept, claiming that the Guild need not be involved and that the Guild would betray Fett like they had betrayed him. Gabnit had been reaching for his blaster, which Fett kicked away. Realizing that Fett would not accept his offer, Gabnit reached for his blaster and was shot by Fett. He dragged the fallen hunter's body back through the village and was thanked by one of its inhabitants, continuing through the night until he reached the cantina, where he walked through a crowd.
A townperson named Stallo called out to Fett, having already heard of his actions in the village, he wanted to thank him for saving his sister's life there, leading to cheers from the crowd. Fett made no response and continued into the cantina, confusing Stallo. Fett's Guild contact congratulated him as two others took Gabnit's body away. Stallo entered the cantina and asked Fett for help dealing with Gabnit's associates, the Xan sisters, who had been terrorizing local farms. Fett continued to ignore him, and Stallo pleaded with him, believing that Fett was a hunter of the wicked. Fett rejected that claim, and, noticing an advertisement for a bounty on Stallo, turned to point his blaster at him, stating that he hunted bounties.
=== Galactic Civil War ===
====The Death Star plans====
====Enforcer for Jabba====
In 0 BBY, Solo and Chewbacca dumped a shipment of Kessel spice they were tasked with smuggling for Jabba. Consequently, the Hutt, accompanied by Fett and fellow mercenaries, went to confront Solo in-person to retrieve the money he owed him. Upon arriving at Docking Bay 94 in Mos Eisley, Jabba called out to Solo as his mercenaries searched around the Falcon. Solo soon arrived, stating that he had no intention of running away. As Solo approached Jabba, Fett walked forward, acting as muscle for the crime lord. He witnessed the ensuing conversation, where Han demanded that Jabba speak to him personally without the use of bounty hunters. As the conversation continued, Solo managed to negotiate his debt down to an extra fifteen percent, to which Jabba warned him that a bounty would be placed on his head if he were to fail again, before he recalled Fett and the other mercenaries back with him. As they left, Fett gave Solo a brief stare before following the Hutt. Ultimately, Solo, who became a member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, did not pay Jabba, leading to a bounty being placed on his head, a bounty which Fett intended to pursue.
====Pursuing Luke Skywalker====
====Deal with the Empire====
=====The hunt for Han Solo=====
Several years later, Fett took his next job from Darth Vader, and rendezvoused with the Executor in the Hoth asteroid belt. Five other hunters, including Fett's old allies Dengar and Bossk, were also gathered aboard the Star Dreadnought. Taking a twenty credit bet with Dengar, Fett correctly guessed their bounty would be Solo's ship, the Millennium Falcon. Vader intended to use Solo, as well as Leia Organa and Chewbacca, as bait to lure Luke Skywalker into a trap. Fett took note of an Imperial officer informing Admiral Firmus Piett of a priority signal from the Star Destroyer Avenger. Fett and the other bounty hunters were given permission to use any means necessary to capture Skywalker's friends, as long as they were captured alive. Vader singled out Fett and warned against disintegrations, to which Fett responded as the Sith Lord wished. After Piett informed Vader that they had found the Falcon, Fett was able to deduce where the freighter was located.
Fett then returned to the hangar bay with Bossk and Dengar. As the trio discussed the matter, Dengar smirked and suggested that they team up to track Solo together, to which Bossk sarcastically remarked that "Krayt's Claw lives again." Fett turned down the suggestion, stating that he needed the credits, though he wished luck to his fellow bounty hunters, before they went their separate ways. After boarding Slave I, Fett went to work programming decoy coordinates on the ship to fool any of the other bounty hunters that might pursue him. Having seen Obi-Wan Kenobi pull a similar move on Jango prior to the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Fett was able to figure out the trick Solo was using to evade the Empire. Fett was soon proven correct when he saw the Millennium Falcon was attached on the conning tower of the Avenger. Fett was able to covertly blend in among the garbage dumped by the Star Destroyer, and watched as the Falcon detached from it. The Avenger then flew into hyperspace, and the Falcondeparted for Bespin, followed closely by Fett.
=====Trap on Cloud City=====
Fett soon contacted Vader and informed him that the Falcon was heading to Cloud City on Bespin. In response, Vader sent a detachment of stormtroopers to infiltrate the city, before preparing to travel there himself. IG-88B, having placed a tracker on Slave I whilst aboard the Executor, followed Fett to Cloud City. Fett had already picked up on the rival hunter's presence however, and instead decided to act oblivious in order to lure the assassin droid into a trap in which four remotely activated ion cannons would fire upon IG-88B. Fett successfully caught the assassin droid with the trap, before shooting him with a shoulder-mounted ion cannon, which knocked him to the floor. He extracted IG-88B's own concussion grenades and placed them inside the droid's metal casing, causing the droid to blow apart from the inside. Fett then offered the assassin droid's remains to the Ugnaughts. Vader soon arrived at the city. Accompanied by Fett, Vader forced the Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian into a twisted agreement that left him no other choice but to betray Solo and his friends. After the Millennium Falcon arrived at Cloud City, Fett stood higher up and overlooked Platform 327, where he watched as Calrissian and Solo reunited. Fett then contacted Vader informing him of Solo's arrival.
Later, Vader ordered Calrissian to bring the group to the Rinetta dining room, where he and Fett waited. Calrissian obeyed, and led the group right to Vader. After the doors opened, Solo opened fire on Vader. The Sith Lord effortlessly blocked Solo's shots with his cybernetic hands alone, before he disarmed him using the Force. Vader then stated that they would be honoured if the group would join them, before Fett emerged from behind a wall, revealing his presence. Following this, Solo was sent away to be tortured. Fett waited outside the room, and looked at Calrissian whilst listening to Solo's screams. Vader soon came out the room, ignoring Calrissian who attempted to speak with him, and informed Fett that after the Empire had Skywalker, he would be given Solo. Fett stated that Solo was no good to him dead, to which Vader assured the bounty hunter that Solo would not be permanently damaged.
Fett soon led the crew to the carbon-freezing chamber, where Solo was to be frozen in carbonite. Fett then raised his concern of Solo's potential death in the crude chamber, to which Vader assured him that the Empire would compensate him if Solo were to die. Vader then ordered his troopers to begin the freezing process, causing Chewbacca to attack the nearby stormtroopers. As Fett raised his EE-3 carbine rifle to shoot the enraged Wookiee, Vader intervened by pushing the weapon down. Solo calmed Chewbacca down, and was eventually lowered down on the platform. Fett watched as Solo emerged, encased in carbonite. Calrissian checked on Solo's state, concluding that he was alive and in perfect hibernation. After hearing this, Vader gave Solo over to Fett, who nodded in respect.
Two Bespin Wing Guards and two stormtroopers accompanied Fett, as they escorted Solo to Slave I. While en route to the ship, Fett swiftly turned his head after hearing heard Luke Skywalker draw his blaster from behind a wall. Now aware of Skywalker's presence, Fett continued walking down the corridor under the guise that he was unaware of the Jedi Padawan. The bounty hunter then waited at the end of the corridor for Skywalker, as the Bespin Wing Guards and the stormtroopers continued on. As Skywalker prepared to sprint forward, Fett revealed his presence and shot at the wall Skywalker was hiding behind, delaying the Jedi Padawan for enough time for Organa and Chewbacca to be dragged away, consequently leading Skywalker into Vader's trap. Calrissian eventually betrayed the Empire, and freed Organa and Chewbacca before the crew attempted to catch up with Fett and free Solo. Fett had already made it back to Slave I however, and told one of the Bespin Wing Guards to place Solo in the cargo hold. Although the crew soon found Fett, the bounty hunter took off, and departed the city.
====The rescue of Han Solo====
=====The infiltration=====
Boba continued working for Jabba after delivering Solo to the Hutt. In the meantime, a plan was developed by Skywalker, Organa, Chewbacca, and Calrissian to rescue Solo from the palace. Sometime later, he witnessed Skywalker and Chewbacca be captured by the Hutt, while Organa posed as the bounty hunter Boushh and Calrissian posed as a guard. Organa was, however, able to free Solo from carbonite freezing, and the smuggler emerged temporarily blind as a result of the freezing process and Organa got captured and made a slave girl for Jabba. At Jabba's decree, Skywalker, Solo, and Chewbacca were to be taken to the Great Pit of Carkoon, where they would be fed to the sarlacc—a creature that lived in the pit that would digest them over the course of a thousand years. Boba made the journey to the sarlacc with Jabba's entourage.
=====The Great Pit of Carkoon=====
Once at the Great Pit of Carkoon, Skywalker and the others put their plan into motion, attacking Jabba's guards—and even leading to the death of Jabba himself, who was strangled to death by Leia Organa. During the firefight, Boba fought against Skywalker, who used his lightsaber to destroy Boba's blaster. In the ensuing chaos, Solo—still somewhat blind— was alerted to Boba's presence and swung out wildly with a vibro-ax, striking Boba's jetpack as he took aim at Skywalker with his wrist gauntlet. The impact caused the jetpack to ignite, sending Boba slamming into the side of Jabba's sail barge, the Khetanna, and then tumbling into the Pit of Carkoon.
