[edit] Star Wars Lore
Durge was a Gen'Dai bounty hunter, Jedi hunter, and a commander in the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars.
As a young Gen'Dai, Durge was viewed by many of his elders as an exceptional physical specimen. Although he was naturally agressive, it was witnessing bounty hunters in action that forever sealed Durge's fate as a fellow hunter. Unable to resist the lure of hunting, Durge left his tribe and ventured out into the Galaxy, training under various crack bounty hunters. Early in life, Durge met a Mandalorian training master known as Jaing. Jaing taught Durge all he needed to know in Mandalorian tactics and skill. Durge was loyal to his Master, and vowed to kill every Mandalorian alive when his Master was killed by a group of Mandalorian Mercenaries under Mandalore Ung Kusp.
When he resurfaced following the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Durge was elated to learn that the Mandalorians were all but dead—but became angered when he learnt that their legacy lived on in the Grand Army of the Republic, which was made up of clones of the last Mandalorian leader, Jango Fett. For a short while, Durge worked for Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine. Two months into the war, Durge took on an assignment to assassinate the Neimoidian official Gilramos Libkath, but was bested by Boba Fett, and blown up along with a cache of Separatist munitions.
Durge survived the blast, however, and a month later he was working for the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Durge revealed himself to the Jedi at Ohma-D'un, where he and Asajj Ventress were testing a new chemical weapon, Jenna Zan Arbor's swamp gas. Durge fought the Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, Glaive, and Zule to a standstill, but was bested by Anakin Skywalker and forced to retreat. A month later, Kenobi and Durge met again, at Queyta, where Durge was guarding the antidote to the deadly swamp gas. Although Kenobi was able to drive Durge off and secure the antidote, the bounty hunter was able to make several high-profile Jedi kills, including Jon Antilles and Nico Diath.
Four months after the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Durge was dispatched to reinforce San Hill’s position at Muunilinst. Durge led a squad of IG lancer droids and met General Kenobi’s attack head-on, but was defeated by Obi-Wan in a fierce duel and cleaved in two. Durge recovered surprisingly quickly, and headed to San Hill’s command centre, where Obi-Wan had just captured the InterGalactic Banking Clan leader. Durge was defeated by Kenobi for a second time, blasted apart by The Force.
The bounty hunter using the name Durge during the Galactic Civil War may or may not be the famous Durge. His armor looks nothing like the original Durge, and it is entirely possible someone has taken up the name, knowing its power. On the other hand, Durge was always notoriously hard to kill....
