Description: Zuckuss
Prefix: BH
Detachment: Bounty Hunters Guild
Context: Star Wars Episode V
Zuckuss was a male Gand who worked as a bounty hunter during the Galactic Civil War. Referred to as "The Uncanny One" by his fellow hunters, Zuckuss was renowned for his ability to discover hidden quarry. His tracking skills derived both from his training as a findsman and from his innate Force-sensitivity, which allowed him to sense individuals at range and decipher the motives of his prey. Due to his famed abilities, Zuckuss was highly sought after.
