Mawhonic/Legends

Mawhonic was a Gran podracer. He used a Galactic Power Engineering GPE-3130.

Biography
Few Podracer pilots can lay claim to being as much of a thorn in Sebulba's side as Mawhonic. He was one of only a handful of racers, also including Gasgano, that Sebulba ever counted as a real threat to his career. Sebulba's loathing of Mawhonic was likely supplemented by the fact that the three-eyed alien was of the Gran race, the very same species that had enslaved Sebulba's people, the Dugs, on their home planet Malastare. Mawhonic would become vicious whenever Sebulba was around, whereas otherwise he was quite good-natured. An unspoken alliance between Mawhonic and Gasgano revealed itself whenever they were racing against Sebulba: if an opportunity to work together to bring the Dug down presented itself, they would do so. However, they rarely had anything to do with each other in their off hours, as each found the other's personality detestable. In the Boonta Eve Classic, Mawhonic's Podracer was destroyed by Sebulba as they were passing through the Mushroom Mesa.

Soon after the race, a maddened Mawhonic pronounced his hatred for Sebulba and his family. He put a bounty on at least two of the cheating Dug's relatives, Nebulba and Xijulba of Malastare's Sebolto Clan. The feared bounty hunter, Jango Fett, would eventually snag the bounties while on the planet, although it is still unclear whether they were taken alive or dead.

Mawhonic returned later on to compete in Malastare's Vinta Harvest Classic, apparently no worse for wear. Astonished, Sebulba accused him of being an impostor, but all evidence pointed to the fact that he was genuine. Rumors began to fly around that there had been an impostor Mawhonic, but this had been the one who perished in the Boonta Eve Classic -- that Mawhonic himself had not raced in the Boonta to begin with. These rumors remain unconfirmed. Perhaps Mawhonic's crash was not as deadly as it appeared.

The real Mawhonic perished for sure when Sebulba once again destroyed his podracer.
