Leiter was a Human male and an agent of the Secret Galactic Intelligence Service, MI5.
Biography[]
Leiter spent many years as an MI5 agent carefully working his way into Jabba the Hutt's criminal empire. He successfully infiltrated Jabba's empire with the Hutt believing him to be an assassin and a bounty hunter, when in fact he was actually secretly feeding useful information back to MI5. He became the agency's top contact in the Outer Rim.
While agents Onolar Neot and Shalin Kitovaz led a team to Tatooine during the CarbonEye investigation in 42 BBY, Leiter helped them get information and get out safely before Jabba suspected anything.
Ten years later, just before the Boonta Eve Classic, two SMERSH operatives named March and Zdeno arrived at Jabba's Palace claiming there was an MI5 agent that had infiltrated Jabba's inner circle. They promptly outed Leiter, who was fired upon by the assassins and bounty hunters within the Palace. Leiter was killed immediately.
Behind the scenes[]
Leiter was created by the Star Wars... 007 Style series creator Dubya Scott, and was loosely based on Felix Leiter from the James Bond films.
