Cassus Fett



Cassus Fett was an ancestor of the Fett clan who lived during the time of the Mandalorian Wars. He was well known for his armor and sidearm.

Biography
Fett was the top Mandalorian military strategist during the Mandalorian Wars, the second in command of Mandalore the Ultimate and one of the few commanders to survive the debacle at Malachor V.

During the wars, Fett personally engineered the decimation of the planet Cathar and the near-genocide of the species (circa 3,963 BBY) as a punishment for their participation in the Great Sith War against the Mandalorian people. Fett became one of the most wanted men in the the galaxy after the assassination of the captain of a Republic flagship, during the Battle of Jaga's Cluster.

After the Mandalorian defeat and the splintering of the Mandalorian Clans, Fett made a name for himself as a bounty hunter, putting the skills he had learnt during the war to good use.

Years later, it was believed that he had died - but the Fett line would continue on for thousands of years culminating with the Mandalorian-turned bounty hunter Jango Fett and his "son" (actually identical clone) Boba.

Fett's armor offered a high level of resistance against cold, fire, and sonic based attacks. Like the Fetts that would come after him years later, his weapon was his life. Cassus Fett used a heavy blaster pistol that was capable of twice as much damage as a standard blaster pistol.

It is unknown how the Rodian merchants Adum Larp (from Dantooine) or B'ree (from Korriban's Czerka outpost) acquired Fett's possessions (his armor and heavy blaster respectively.)

Behind the Scenes
Game designers for Knights of the Old Republic originally included two different versions of Cassus Fett's armor but only the pink version was available in the game. The grey version was only accesible by editing a game file. The armor was hidden in the code but wasn't available to the player initially.
