[Source] "The Agony Inducer" was a small device used as an instrument of torture. The bounty hunter Remel Fud built this instrument. It was circular in appearance and could be attached to the ear, where small buttons could be pressed to manipulate the type of agony felt by the subject. A short time after the Battle of Yavin, the hunters Fud and Dafi used The Agony Inducer on the Lepi smuggler Jaxxon in order to force him to tell them the location of Aduba-3.
