    There's this great thing called the CUSWE. I recommend checking it out. He was...
    "... a male Sakiyan once employed by Sebulba as a slave herder. As Sebulba made his way around the podracing circuit, Djas Puhr was responsible for acquiring new slaves for the Dug's brisk slaving business. After Sebulba's defeat by Anakin Skywalker in the Boonta Eve Classic, Djas Puhr found himself unemployed, and decided to use his skills as a bounty hunter. He used Mos Eisley as a base during the Galactic Civil War. He had incredible peripheral and infrared vision, coupled with keen senses of smell and hearing. All of these attributes made him a feared hunter."

    All the Star Wars Encyclopedia has on him was that he was a male Sakiyan bounty hunter who was in the Cantina when Luke and Han met.

    Edit - ^^^ beat me to it.

    IIRC, his first EU appearance was on the CCG card. later on, in one of the Episode I Adventures, he did all tha slaving of the Ghostling children for Sebulba.

    Here's his lore from the CCG card:
    Male Sakiyan, a race often employed as assassins. Bounty hunter. Incredible infrared peripheral vision. Has excellent aural and olfactory senses. Often tracks by scent.

    There's no France in Star Wars, silly! [face_laugh]

    There is a Portugal, though . . . [face_thinking]

    Can we have a holo of him in that cantina scene, please? One day I might blow the permacrete dust off that tape, but . . . you know.

    Thanks, Tam. Looks like something out of a Doctor Who episode. Simple, but alien. So that's a Sakiyan that I read in Shadow Hunter.

    The Sakiyan Admiral Bleyd has a major role in Battle Surgeons, too. You'd have liked the wide range of different aliens in the Medstar books, Ex, a lot more than just your Rodians & Twi'leks (tho the main character is a Corellian, can't win 'em all).
