Greedo is a bounty hunter from Rodia. Bounty hunting is a profession veiled in honor on Rodia. Every year, prizes are awarded to those who surpass in various categories such as "greatest accuracy with a distance blaster" and "quickest catch". And if there were a prize for "most careless", Greedo would win hands down. He epitomized the smarmy bounty hunter profile, petty and arrogant to the last letter. Having traveled across the galaxy working for agencies on both sides of the law, Greedo eventually found himself working for the infamous crime lord, Jabba the Hutt. Both parties found this alliance advantageous; Greedo enjoyed the challenge and notoriety, Jabba liked the low price. From that day on, Greedo had been absolutely overbearing, bullying his way across Tatooine, adding to his collection of "trophies". It was in building this collection that he ran across Han Solo. Had he not grown to be so smug, he might have noticed Solo drawing his blaster under the table. As a race, Rodians are historically hunters. Their small planet in the Tyrius system is thick with tropical growth and was at one time teeming with all sorts of lifeforms. Greedo's ancestors never found the need to farm their food when the Jungle provided plenty to hunt for. As they developed greater tools, however, the large game eventually became extinct, leaving little left to challenge them. To fill this absence, they created fierce physical competitions and bloody wars that would last thousands of years. It wasn't until the first visitors to their planet arrived that they stopped fighting amongst themselves and focused their sights into space. Over the bodies of the Old Republic scouts, the Rodian Grand Protector pointed upwards and smiled. Rodian Hunters take pride in their trade, frequently braving the void to retrieve their quarry. They are efficient in the kill, preferring thermal detonators to blasters as few species can escape a grenade. They allow just enough witnesses and remains to verify their kill to the Guild on Rodia, where they receive large awards for a successful hunt. It is with this award in mind that they carry out their duty. The bounty itself is often negotiated in trade for the body.
