Otto Fett

"You're not a Fett... ...you shouldn't even be worthy of my time!"

- Commander Riggs

Otto Fett was a Bounty Hunter and impersonator of Boba Fett who assumed the infamous surname after a slump in his own hunting career. Since Boba Fett had been missing during the crises leading up to the Ancient's Crusade, Otto found it easy to assume his name and in effect gained all of Fett's former contractors. Though he became marginally wealthy (enough even so to acquire a suit of Mandalorian armor once worn by Boba's father Jango), he did tarnish the Fett name on several occasions with various flunders and lapses in judgement, as well as horrid behaviour under the influence of certain strong ales.

Taking Fett's Name
Otto was in a bind - the Dark Jedi on Coruscant had targetted him for the assassination of one of their comrades, the Jedi wouldn't take him in because of his peculiar origins, and the Republic disdained him because of his 'harmless flirting' with the wife of Admiral Bryt. He needed a way out of this hole he had dug for himself through his various flounders, and his opportunity came when he heard that people had not seen Boba Fett for several months. Since the infamous hunter was often spotted during his investigations, Otto assumed that Fett had died, but formulated a plot to assume the former Mandalorian's identity to help boost his own career.

All Otto needed was a contract from one of Fett's employers. Signing under the name 'O.Fett', Otto managed to nab a contract from a famous Twi'Lek dancer and card player named Udinia to kill a man named Kunic because of a recent defeat in the cards. Udinia's pride had been severely scarred in the encounter, and she demanded that the only card player capable of beating her in any tourney be killed immediately before the Coruscanti Championship.

Otto tracked Kunic easily, but only by a stroke of luck did he manage to kill him cleanly enough. Kunic was standing on a platform above a superheated furnace in Coruscant's industrial sector when Otto arrived and aimed his old EE-3 at the old card player's head. Kunic rose both hands before whipping around and throwing out his right hand towards Otto. Surprised, Otto found himself throttled backwards by an incredible force.

Floored and dazed, Otto watched as the Jedi approached casually, asking him why he was about to kill him. Otto was about to try to escape when the old man was beheaded right in front of him. Standing there over the corpse was a Dark Jedi, blue lightsaber drawn, staring at Otto with young eyes, eager for violence. "We've been looking for this one for a long time!"

"There's a Bounty on 'em."

"You can have it, then, Bounty Hunter - I merely need the head."
