Cad Bane/Legends

"I make the rules now."

- Cad Bane

Cad Bane was a bounty hunter from Duro who operated during the Clone Wars. In it for the credits, he would work for the highest bidder.

Biography


A bounty hunter from Duro, Bane often worked solely for the reward of his missions. Because of this, he worked for the highest bidder instead of solely for his original hirer. During the Clone Wars, members of Bane's "posse" included fellow bounty hunters Robonino and Aurra Sing.

Working for Darth Tyranus, Bane stole a holocron with a list of infants with Force potential. He kidnapped the children from the list and took them to Mustafar, where Darth Sidious planned to use them for his wicked deeds.

Personality and traits
Early versions of the character were based on Durge. But the final design, at the request of George Lucas, took inspiration from Lee Van Cleef's characters from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and For a Few Dollars More.

Cad Bane was at the "top of his game" during the Clone Wars, as fellow bounty hunter Jango Fett was no longer around. He had much less moral content than Jango, and would often turn upon the very people who hired him unless he was given money.
