Tartuta was a male Dug bounty hunter who was hired by the newly-formed Galactic Empire two weeks after the end of the Clone Wars to find Sagoro Autem, an Imperial naval captain that was slated for purging from the military. The Dug wielded a pair of knives in his feet as his primary weapon, and was shown to be extremely acrobatic, swinging around railings and poles to dodge enemy blaster fire and quickly close the distance to them. He even deflected a blaster bolt by spinning the blades quickly in circles.
