Biography[]

"Rodian. Do you want me to cut your bonds?"

―Boba Fett offers to free the Rodian^[2]

The Rodian was taken prisoner by a tribe of Tuskens who also captured Boba Fett.

Around4 ABY,^[1] aRodian was a prisoner of aTusken Raider tribe, which tied them up against a brokentree branch. The raiders took another captive,^[2] the famedbounty hunter^[4]Boba Fett,^[2] who had been badly defeated in askirmish at aSarlacc pit.^[5] Fett was tied up at a tree branch next to the Rodian by afireplace for the night, guarded by amassiff. Waking up, thebounty hunter looked around and exchanged a look with the Rodian prisoner, before breaking free of his bonds by baiting themassiff and using itsteeth. Fett then offered to free the Rodian, but they instead called out to the Tuskens, leading the freed prisoner to be pursued and quickly recaptured.^[2]

The next morning, aTusken child took the Rodian prisoner and Fett and led them across the dunes of Tatooine with the massiff, Fett stumbling due to how weak he had become. They arrived near a homestead which was being raided by a gang ofKajain'sa'Niktos. The Tusken child instead led the Rodian and Fett to a separate place and told them to start digging forblack melons. While Fett could not understand the child's commands, the Rodian prisoner immediately began digging, leading their fellow captive to join them. The Rodian quickly found ablack melon and handed it to the Tusken before continuing to dig.^[2]

As the two prisoners dug more, the Rodian found another black melon for the Tusken child, while Fett reluctantly handed over his first find. When the child and Massiff fell asleep, Fett complained to the Rodian, claiming they could escape, reach the settlementAnchorhead and get offworld. The Rodian ignored him, so he threatened to strangle him with his ankle chain, leading the Rodian to snap back at him until he advised him to lower his voice. Still digging, the Rodian then discovered a scalylimb, which attacked him. Asand beast revealed itself from the sand and mauled the Rodian,suffocating the prisoner in sand. Fett killed the creature after, and returned to the Tusken tribe with the child and Massiff.^[2]

Personality and traits[]

The Rodian hadpink skin and blackeyes. Despite being captive to the Tuskens, the prisoner was loyal to them, informing them of Fett's escape attempt and working willingly for the Tusken child. The Rodian only spoke and understood hisnative language, being unable to understand Boba Fett in Galactic Basic Standard, who intended to free him by mistaking him for flaying him. Still, he did understand from the tone of voice when he was being insulted in the Galactic Basic Standard.^[2]
