The Shooter

Legends Linked from 5 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

"The Shooter" was a nickname given to various bodyguards assigned to Leia Organa Solo in 13 ABY.

During The Black Fleet Crisis, Leia Solo was issued several bodyguards that changed often. Rather than learning the name of each new bodyguard, she instead nicknamed her two bodyguards based on their duties.

The Shooter received his nickname because he followed Leia wherever she went as a heavily armed rear guard, defending her against any attacks.

Leia refused to let the Shooter or his partner, "The Sniffer," accompany her outside the Imperial Palace.
