Big String

"Sorry, my friend. But when this particular client calls, you drop everything." "W-what...?"

- Cha drops Big String after receiving a call from the Emperor

Big String was a male amphibious alien who lived during the reign of the Galactic Empire as a crime boss in a fortress he constructed on the Inner Rim planet Amethia Prime. Some time later, an individual hired Chanath Cha, a bounty hunter, to destroy Big String's fortress and apprehend the crime boss. Cha did, and Big String was forced to flee. Cha caught up with him, however, and grabbed onto him and flew to cloud-level. Cha received a call from Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine, so he dropped Big String from the tremendous height.

- Big String and Chanath Cha meet

Big String was a maleamphibious alien who lived during the Age of the Empire. He worked as a crime boss, engaging in various nefarious activities, which gained him a fortune in credits. Big String constructed a fortress on the Inner Rim world Amethia Prime in a purple ocean which was located on a series of small volcanic islands. He built the fortress over the span of twenty cycles. He employed many beings who worked in the fortress, including at least three bodyguards. However, some time after the Battle of Yavin, an individual who disliked Big String hired prestigious bounty hunter Chanath Cha to destroy Big String's "empire" and capture the crime boss.

Soon thereafter, Cha invaded the fortress, killing the majority of Big String's employees, and utilized his armor and rocket boots to wreak havoc on the fortress. So Big String fled in a boat with three of his guards to escape Cha. As they skimmed across the water, the fortress exploded completely, wiping out Big String's "empire". One of the guards then inquired as to whether Big String wanted to return to the fortress to search for survivors, to which Big String replied: "Don't be and idiot. Drive." Cha appeared next to the boat underwater, keeping speed with his rocket boots, and before Big String could do anything, Cha shot up through the bow of the boat; overturning it, destroying its engine and throwing Big String and his guards into the water. They scrambled back onto the boat and Cha introduced himself to the crime boss and quickly overtook the three guards in hand-to-hand combat. Big String, realizing he had little choice, surrendered to the bounty hunter and dropped his blaster rifle. Cha hoisted Big String up by his belt and ascended to cloud-level of Amenthia Prime's atmosphere, where Big String pleaded with Cha that he could pay him more than he was being paid in exchange for his freedom, but Cha had none of and soon received a comlink call from Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine&mdash;the most recognizable man in the galaxy&mdash;who had a job for the bounty hunter. Therefore, Cha apologized to Big String and dropped him; not wanting to waste the Emperor’s time.
