Bar-Kooda was a notorious Herglic pirate who had a reputation of eating his victims. At some point by 6 ABY, the Bloodstar, the massive starship captained by Bar-Kooda, attacked a spaceliner aboard which was the magician Wim Magwit. Bar-Kooda forced Magwit to perform in front of him and his crew of pirates and, becoming amazed by the magician's Mystifying Hoop act, kept him aboard the Bloodstar for four more years.
Eventually, Magwit escaped from Bar-Kooda, but the Herglic put out a warrant for the magician's arrest, and the bounty hunter Boba Fett captured Magwit in 10 ABY. However, the Hutt Gorga Desilijic Aarrpo also hired Fett to kill Bar-Kooda in order to please the trader Orko, with whose daughter, Anachro, Gorga had fallen in love. To that end, Fett forced Magwit to smuggle him aboard the Bloodstar and assist in capturing Bar-Kooda.
Aboard the pirates' ship, Bar-Kooda ordered Magwit to perform the Mystifying Hoop trick once again. The magician persuaded the Herglic to stick his head through the frame that formed a part of the Hoop's matter transmitter system—only for the pirate to be pulled by the waiting Fett through the other frame located in the Bloodstar's cargo hold. Bar-Kooda engaged Fett in a brief brawl that ended when the latter knocked the former unconscious.
Fett, who was carrying Bar-Kooda, and Magwit then both made their way back to the spacecraft on which they had arrived aboard the Bloodstar and escaped the pirate ship. Fett subsequently killed Bar-Kooda, and for a feast he was having with Orko and Anachro on the planet Tatooine, Gorga had a roasted entrée prepared out of the pirate. Bar-Kooda's older brother, Ry-Kooda, later attempted to avenge his death but was also killed by Fett. (Read more…)
