Biography
A male Twi'lek, Bib Fortuna hailed from Ryloth, the homeworld of his species. He served as a major-domo to the Hutt crime lord Jabba as far back as the time of the Invasion of Naboo, thirty-two years before the Battle of Yavin. That year, Fortuna attended the Boonta Eve Classic, which his master hosted to commemorate the Boonta Eve holiday. From his master's private balcony, he witnessed the victory of a local Human boy named Anakin Skywalker against the reigning champion Sebulba.

During the Galactic Civil War between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance, the Twi'lek remained in Jabba's service. At some point between the Battle of Yavin and Battle of Hoth, Fortuna contacted the Tatooinian mercenary Saponza and his partner in the name of Jabba. The two men had reacted violently to the presence of Jabba's henchmen around Saponza's homestead, killing six of them. Fortuna let the two mercenaries know they had made an enemy of his Hutt master. Some time later, Jabba's henchmen razed Saponza's estate to the ground in retaliation, and the major-domo contacted Saponza once again to gloat over his infortune and warn him that Jabba's revenge was not over.

Later in the war, Fortuna greeted two droid visitors to his master's palace. Those two mechanical units, called C-3PO and R2-D2, claimed they had a gift for the Hutt. The majordomo demanded that they handed over that present to him so he could bring it to Jabba, but the droids answered their instructions were to give it only to the crime lord himself. Fortuna ended up leading the droids into the throne room, where they delivered a holographic message from their owner, the Rebel hero and fledging Jedi Luke Skywalker. In the message, Skywalker asked to bargain for the life of his friend Han Solo, whom Jabba detained, offering the C-3PO and R2-D2 as a gift.
