Nagyan was one of the bounty hunters sent by Risso Nu to catch Boba Fett on Ma'ar Shaddam. At some point in his career, he came into conflict with Fett and sustained several scars as a result of their altercation. His primary motivation for going along with Nu's plan was the opportunity it presented for Nagyan to recover his honor with Fett's death.
Nagyan bore an impressive array of knives, but his penchant for bladed weapons ultimately proved his undoing, as Fett killed him with one of his own knives.
