Kuyter Fett

"You are the most prestigious bounty hunter in the galaxy, I trust you will not fail me."

- Darth Argan

Kuyter Fett (kutter) was a mandalorian bounty hunter who was considered the adopted son of Boba Fett. He assisted Darth Argan with his Great Jedi Genocide in 50 ABY.

Rebellion Era
Kuyter was born on Tatooine to an unknown enslaved family who had abandonned him at birth. He was taken in by another unknown family and was taken care of until the age of 7 when he ran away to Mos Eisley Spaceport and decided to live in the streets. When he was 8, he ran into Boba Fett, who had occasionally visited the spaceport. Boba saw the young boy half starved and offered him food. The boy took it and and then became aquainted with Boba.

Their friendship lasted through the war, where Boba would occasionally stop by and bring Kuyter something like food, scrap, or a souvenier from his last bounty. Eventually they became such good friends that Boba had considered him his adopted son and allowed him to take his last name. Boba also gave him physical and mental training with the ways of bounty hunting, and Kuyter started to become more independent and desired to follow Boba's footsteps.

New Republic
After Boba's assumed death by the sarlacc, Kuyter determined he would take his position as bounty hunter and become an even greater one. After years of vigorous training from mandalorian texts, and experience from his hunts, Kuyter became a very dangerous foe. Although he was not well known during the New Republic era, he had received thousands of credits for his bounty hunting service to various crime lords.

Legacy Era
After the rise of the Galactic Dark Empire, its leader Darth Argan hired Kuyter to hunt down various Jedi targets hiding around the galaxy. He was responsible for dozens of Jedi deaths during the Great Jedi Genocide. After the Jedi Knight Vrabou Kydior escaped the Empire's control, he went on a conquest to eliminate Argan and stop his killing. Argan sent Kuyter to stop Vrabou on Atzerri, but ultimately failed and died after Vrabou's master Sadar Dvon gave his life to prevent his assasination. Vrabou then defeated Kuyter in battle.

Behind the Scenes
It is assumed that Kuyter had no connection or was unaware of Boba Fett's survival during the Legacy Era. No information on their status's at this time is given.

If the dark side option is chosen in the Jedi Extinciton game, Vrabou will not have to duel with Kuyter. Instead, Argan is told to hold his fire when he reaches the Dark Thorn entrance, and Vrabou is able to sense him and kill him off gaurd with Force lightning.
