Kal-tan-shi

Kal-tan-shi was a Tiss'shar bounty hunter during the Rebellion era.

Kal-tan-shi began his career as a hunter for House Paramexor, specialized in no living bounties. During this time he began his rivalty with other bounty hunter Ssach'thirix. It was during this time that his hatred and almost fear to droids was firstly discovered.

After a successful career under Paramexor, he eventually decided to work alone, perhaps to further pursue his nemesis Ssach'thirix even thou Paramexor were still customizing his ship at the moment (The modifications were never completed. Although Guild Master Janq Paramexor frowned this decision, Janq and Kal-tan-shi kept a strong friendship and were seen dining together years later.

Kal-tan-shi commonly specialized in bounties belonging to the Rebel Alliance because the money was higher than the money for pirates, smugglers or gangsters, and because the challenge was greater. He commonly murdered his prey if he knew the bounty was the same for a living or a dead prey.

As of 2 ABY, he had captured or killed at least seventeen Rebel operatives, including high-ranking Generals Tfin and Wuvnir at Yuhli Docking Port 32. He also killed two Mon Calamari envoys plus a seven-member entourage on Veron system.

Rebel lieutenant Tole Warren was assigned to track Kal-tan-shi because Warren was the only non-droid fluent in Yiss'shar. Warren never captured Kal-tan-shi, but he found his ship, the Accuser, and noticed a failure in the starboard thrust converter. Warren reported this information for future Rebel watchers.
