T'doshok (bounty hunter)

"T'doshok no surrender!"

- This unidentified Trandoshan

This bounty hunter, a Trandoshan male, lived during the Clone Wars, the conflict between the Galactic Republic and a separatist faction that had seceded from the galactic government. This bounty hunter had planned to capture Republic Senator Shayla Paige-Tarkin from Coruscant and give her over to the Separatists in order to collect a large bounty on any Galactic Senate member; however, he was intercepted by Clone Commander Fox and the Coruscant Guard, a group of specially trained clone troopers that performed military actions for the Senate. Though he tried to run, the Trandoshan was quickly disarmed by the commander and arrested.

Biography
"Give it up, There's no way you'll make it out of my town alive. Surrender now and I promise you that you'll live."

- Clone Commander Fox

This male Trandoshan bounty hunter tried to capitalize on the large bounty for members of the Galactic Senate offered by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. He traveled to Coruscant, the Republic's capital planet, in an attempt to capture Senator Shayla Paige-Tarkin. News of his plan, obtained through espionage, reached Clone Commander Fox&mdash;the leader of the Coruscant Guard, a task force of clone troopers trained to protect the Supreme Chancellor&mdash;before the bounty hunter's starship touched down on the planet. Fox had already mobilized his unit when he confronted the bounty hunter, who brought out his ACP scatter gun and began firing at the commander. The bounty hunter's initial shots missed and he took shelter behind an old speeder. The Trandoshan carefully looked over the speeder to find his target and cocked his blaster. The Trandoshan then let another volley go, this time barely missing Fox's head. The clone raised his blaster and took aim but did not fire because he had orders to capture the Trandoshan alive, and his target fled through the streets.

Fox gave chase and contacted his team. The clones quickly surrounded the Trandoshan who, with nowhere else to go, used his hidden jetpack to fly to a nearby roof. Fox used an ascension gun to scale the building and climbed onto the roof while the Trandoshan fired at him. The clone took cover and fired several warning shots before telling the Trandoshan to surrender. The bounty hunter refused and squeezed the trigger of his gun. However, Fox took advantage of the Trandoshan species' naturally slow firing rate and shot the gun out of the alien's hands. Fox once again told the bounty hunter to surrender, but the commander noticed that the bounty hunter was looking for a way to escape, and he threatened to shoot the Trandoshan out of the sky if he tried to use his jetpack again. The bounty hunter knew that he had lost, so he gave in and was taken into custody by the Guard.

Personality and traits
This male Trandoshan worked as a bounty hunter in the galaxy, and had brown scales and orange eyes. He was searching for a quick way to a large sum of credits and attempted to kidnap a senator from Coruscant for the bounty offered by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, knowing that no one had ever successfully kidnapped a senator from the capital planet before. When his plan was discovered, he was confronted by Clone Commander Fox and became nervous, realizing that the bounty was out of his league. The Trandoshan showed that he was not very accurate with his blaster; however, he was able to score some near hits to the commander's head. He had a slow trigger finger, but that was not uncommon for his species.

The Trandoshan carried an ACP scatter gun as his primary weapon and a jetpack on his back for quick escapes. He was tenacious and refused to give up. However, he reluctantly surrendered to Fox's men when there was no chance of escape. He knew at least some of his native language, Dosh.
