Jango Fett is a famous Mandalorian, bounty hunter, mercenary and "father" of Boba Fett, his genetic clone, whom he raises as his son. A native of Concord Down, Fett was adopted by Mandalorian warriors after the murder of his parents and the disappearance of his older sister Arla in 58 BBY. Years later, he led the Mandalorians in the Mandalorian Civil War as a Mandalorian. After being arrested by a Jedi, Fet destroys the Deadly Guard, a Mandalorian group that killed his teacher, Juster Merrill.

After the end of the conflict, Fett became a bounty hunter, quickly gaining a reputation as one of the best in the galaxy. Fett later agreed to become a genetic model for the clones, which later became the Grand Republican Army during the Clone Wars. When given the task of assassinating Senator Nabu Padme Amidala, he tries to accomplish it with the help of Zam Wessel, but Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker thwart their plan. Kenobi follows him to the Camino, but Django and Boba escape and go to Count Dooku on Geonosis. There, Django was killed in the arena by Jedi Master Mace Windu. Despite his death, Fett is survived by his clones and his son Boba Fett, who leave a deep mark galactic history.
