When it comes to bounty hunters who had a massive impact on the galaxy as a whole, look no further than Jango Fett.

Introduced in Attack of the Clones, then killed by Mace Windu in the same film, the reputed Mandalorian's tenure in the Star Wars canon was relatively brief. But he did a lot with that time.

First and foremost, he was the genetic template for the Clone Army. Essentially, millions of Jango Fetts with slight adjustments ran around the galaxy, first fighting a war to protect the Republic and then exterminating the Jedi. He was also the father to Boba Fett, another clone of Jango and one of the most feared men in the galaxy.

Little is known about Jango's life before he appeared in Attack of the Clones. He claimed to be a Mandalorian but the Mandalorian government disavowed him at every turn. That doesn't mean he wasn't a Mandalorian, though. Given his importance in galactic politics, there needs to be a greater exploration of who the man was and what his roots truly were.
