This three-fingered, three-toed reptiloid long specialized in hunting down Wookiees- sometimes enslaving them for the Empire, sometimes skinning them for their pelts. He had several run-ins with Chewbacca and Han Solo, and each time was humiliated when they made good their escape from him and other bounty hunters. Bossk heeded Darth Vader's call to rendezvous with other bounty hunters aboard Vader's Super Star Destroyer, the Executor.

Callista is a Jedi Knight from the time of the Old Republic. She discovered a well-hidden secret Imperial installation (a sort of proto-Death Star, though with nowhere near the firepower) and attempted to sabotage or destroy it; when she failed and died, she used her talents in the Force to essentially 'haunt' the station's central computer. She remained there for thirty years, until Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and several other New Republic Jedi discovered the station and assisted her in destroying it. During the process, the two fell in love, and just prior to the station's destruction, Callista traded bodies with one of the other Jedi (a female). Unfortunately the process cut her off from the Force. Later experiments, though, found her still in touch with the dark side. Eventually she left on a quest to find a compromise to her powers, and the two are considered distinctly separated (especially in light of Skywalker's marriage to Mara Jade).

Despite all of this, Dengar was not an evil man. he simply couldn't help the fact that the empire had modified his brain. He was often disgusted at what he had done, for his sense of disgust had not been removed by the empire.
Eventually Dengar would meet a humanoid woman called Manaroo and fall in love. Through sharing her mind with Dengar, Manaroo gave him back his senses of love and compassion. Dengar then renounced his occupation as a bounty hunter, and after a brief spell as partner with Fett, he retired.
Interesting note: Dangar was the one who found Boba Fett after he was "eaten" by the sarlacc. He rescued him and he and his girlfriend Manaroo were the only two people to see Boba Fett's face since he became a bounty hunter.

Major General Maximilian Veers was the Imperial General who led the assault on Hoth in the fictional movie saga Star Wars. He was the one of the most talented tacticians in the Imperial Army.
In the Expanded Universe, Maximilian Veers was the son of a middle-class working family. He joined the Imperial Academy and graduated in the top of his class. He was given a Lieutenant command upon graduation. One of his early tours sent him out to the Outer Rim to a barbaric world called Culroon III where he quickly learned that the Empire does not tolerate incompetence and failure. During the attempt to pacify the natives of Culroon III, General Irrv had ordered for Lieutenant Veers to remain confined to the base while he and an Imperial party went to negotiate a peace with the Culroon natives. Veers had warned that it was a trap and that Irrv should bring armored support to deter any would-be ambushers. General Irrv did not listen and paid the price with his life when he was executed for incompetence after the Culroon natives deceived and killed most of his party. If it had not been for Lieutenant Veers's quick thinking and disregard of a direct order, the Imperial party would have been utterly slaughtered. For his bravery and brilliance, Veers was promoted to Major.
Sometime later, Veers would be appointed to commander of the Emperor's personal AT-AT legion and promoted to the rank of Colonel. He also became an instructor at the Imperial Academy on Carida. Sometime between the ranks of Lieutenant and Colonel, Veers had married and had one son named Zevulon. When Zevulon was only a young boy, Veers lost his wife to a dreadful accident during a family vacation. Devestated by the death of his wife, Colonel Veers buried his grief into his military career to the point where it began to affect his relationship with his son.
That relationship would be tested further when Veers was ordered to report to the first Death Star as a ground commander and as an academic instructor. Fortunately, he had only just arrived in-system at the Battle of Yavin and was spared of an untimely death with the destruction of the battle station. However, an X-wing had spotted his shuttle and forced a crash landing on the jungle moon. For weeks, Colonel Veers survived on emergency rations and later the local wildlife before the Imperial fleet had rescued him.
After the Battle of Yavin, Colonel Veers was sent to command a troop garrison on Corellia. There he helped CorSec Inspectors Hal and Corran Horn put an end to the criminal Black Sun lieutenant, Zekka Thyne, by storming his fortress on the notion that Thyne was habouring rebel insurrgents. Impressed by Veers performance in removing Black Sun's presence near Coronet City, Grand Admiral Thrawn recommended the brilliant AT-AT commander to Darth Vader. Vader accepted the recommendation and promoted the Colonel to Major General and placed him in command of Death Squadron's ground troops.
Veers most notable success occurred at the Battle of Hoth when he was given the chance to correct a mistake caused by the incompetent Admiral Ozzel and prove to Lord Vader that he was not chosen poorly. General Veers had lived up to both his reputation and Lord Vader's expectations by quickly deploying his armored regiment, designated Blizzard Force, into the Echo Base mountain valley and personally destroying the shield generator protecting the rebel base. Shortly after the destruction of the shield generator; rebel snowspeeder pilot, Hobbie, kamakazied his vessel into the cockpit of Veers's Blizzard One walker.
Both men miracously survived the incident but came out badly injured. General Veers, although had seen Hobbie coming, had not been quick enough to get out of the cockpit in time. His slowness had cost him his legs after a support beam fell ontop of them and literally crushed the bones into several pieces where reconstruction and bacta could not restore them. Veers, like many in the galaxy, was too proud and held a dislike for cybernetics and so refused to have his legs replaced with prosynthetics. Veers would be confined to a hoverchair for the rest of his life.
Although the Battle of Hoth was a great victory for him, bringing him fame and glory, it was overshadowed by a report from his son's COMPNOR SAGroup (Sub-Adult Group) commander. The commander reported that Zevulon Veers had gone missing during a SAGroup mission dealing with rebel spies. However, the honored General suspected that his son had defected to the rebellion and disowned his father. The betrayel of his son brought shame and dishonor to the Veers name despite the General's victory at Hoth. He would suffer from the ignominy his son brought forth for the rest of his life.
Nearly a year later, General Veers would be placed in command of the Emperor's Elite AT-AT force on the forest moon of Endor. There his forces suffered a defeat to the combined forces of the Rebel Alliance and the furry Ewok natives shortly after the shield generator and the surrounding base was incinerated. Veers escaped capture with several other officers and fled the battle with the remnants of the Imperial fleet. Later on he would serve as a template for Grand Admiral Thrawn's clones and move from one Imperial commander to the next in search of a new command.
Most of the time he would be shunned away or rejected downright because of his relationship with Lord Vader. Most post-Endor officers despised anyone who had served and survived Lord Vader and wanted nothing to do with those people. For six years, General Veers would wander the Empire and would watch as everything he believed in and fought for crumbled around him. Eventually he became disappointed and distraught with the path the Empire was following but his sense of loyalty and honor had kept him from defecting or going AWOL.
When the recall from the Deep Core came, like many other officers searching for a new hope, General Veers answered it and reported to the Imperial Fleet orbiting Byss. Six months after Thrawn's defeat at the Battle of Bilbringi, Veers would participate in the Battles of Mon Calamari, Byss and last Balmorra. It was during the Battle of Balmorra that Veers suffered the worse fate that could be given to an established officer of the Empire. Hated for the fact that he served and survived Lord Vader, Veers was severely demoted to the rank of Captain and sent on a suicide mission by Executor Sedriss--an insane and inept darksider.
Maximilian Veers, one of the Empire's greatest ground tacticians and heroes, was reported to have perished on that fateful suicide mission.
Ghent is a fictional character in the expanded Star Wars universe. He made his first appearance in the Timothy Zahn novel, Heir to the Empire. Ghent is a slicer (hacker) of awesome talent, able to crack military and diplomatic grade encryptions with relative ease. He is employed in Talon Karrde's smuggling operation.
Over the course of the Thrawn story arc, Ghent was seconded to the New Republic in order to track down Delta Source, an Imperial intelligence system acquiring information directly from the New Republc headquarters.

Greedo is the alien bounty hunter (played by uncredited actor Paul Blake ) who was killed by Han Solo in the cantina on Tatooine in A New Hope. Greedo was attempting to extort money out of Solo, but neglected to keep a close enough watch on Han, who drew his weapon and fired.
In the 1997 re-release of the film, Greedo gets a badly-aimed shot at Solo before Solo kills Greedo. George Lucas has said that this change is to enhance Solo's overall heroism. This angered many fans and in the 2004 version both now pull the trigger at the same time.
Greedo's father, also named Greedo, appeared as a child in the script for but failed to make the final cut. The deleted scene, where he gets into a scuffle with Anakin after the Podrace, can been seen in the DVD outakes.
Derek "Hobbie" Klivian is a native of the planet Ralltiir. Not much is known about his past before he served with Biggs Darklighter aboard the Rand Ecliptic and participated in a mass-defection that occurred in the months leading up to the Battle of Yavin. Hobbie was later assigned to Rogue Squadron as Rogue Six. It is interesting that he was assigned to such an elite squadron, due to his almost legendary knack for crashing. He was given the nickname of Bugbite by Iella Wessiri , a reference to their first meeting on Corellia where Hobbie was stung by a local insect.
Hobbie makes an appearance in The Empire Strikes Back as one of the pilots on Hoth. He was presumed killed by flying into General Veers' AT-AT, but both he and the general survived, though it cost Veers his legs.

Jan Dodonna one of the first Generals in the Rebellion's military, appearing in A New Hope, played by Alex McCrindle . Like Han Solo, Dodonna was Corellian. He was a strategic master, who had served in the Old Repubilc. As the Republic became the Empire, Dodonna left, and joined the Rebellion only after the Emperor ordered a hit on him. When plans brought to him by Princess Leia and downloaded from R2-D2, Dodonna helped plan the attack on the Death Star. The data showed that the defenses of the Death Star were built around large scale attacks, he found that thermal exhaust ports on the station would be vulnerable to attack, and designed the starfighter attack that was sucessful in destroying the Death Star.
Dodonna was not seen in any later film. According to the Expanded Universe fiction, he had been believed killed during the evacuation of Yavin. However, he had been captured by Imperial forces. He was eventually sent to Lusankya. The Imperials were unable to turn him into a sleeper agent. Dodonna spent several years at Lusankya, until he was moved by Isard. Eventually, Rouge Squadron found the surviving Lusankya prisoners, and Dodonna was finally freed. After being freed, Dodonna served on the New Republic council.

She eventually achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and was assigned to escort her parents on diplomatic missions for the Galactic Alliance.
Despite her strong affinity with the Force, Jaina Solo is frequently kidnapped by enemy forces. This has become something of a running gag in the Star Wars Expanded Universe, much to the chagrin of some fans. Like her siblings, she trained to become a Jedi. As with many post-Galactic Republic-era Jedi, she eventually found love; a romance of sorts blossomed with Colonel Jagged Fel (nephew of Wedge Antilles), who is a pilot for the Chiss.
As of The Unifying Force, the last novel in the New Jedi Order series, Jaina Solo is twenty years old.
