The Mandalorian way lives on in the bond between Jango Fett and his son Boba. Growing up at his fathers side, Boba has learned the value of superior training, judgement, and weaponry. To Boba, Jango stands above the greed and betrayal encountered in the underworld, and is a man of honour who is unfailingly truthful with him. To young Boba, Jango Fett is father, family, ideal, and hero, the greatest of the Mandalorians and the image of his own destiny. Episode II reveals the unusual origins of Han Solo's future rival. From Slave I to his fearful equipment and his hate for the Jedi, the veil of mystery that has been surrounding Boba Fett has been lifted. Young Boba Fett is perceptive and intelligent. He has learned to assess situations carefully, and to listen more than he talks. When Obi-Wan Kenobi appears at the Fetts' apartment, Boba immediately senses trouble, but betrays none of his concern.
Boba knows when to stay in the background. Jango trusts his son's discretion and keeps him around even during critical meetings. Even in combat, Boba Fett stays at his father's side. He trusts his father's abilities and learns from Jango's skillful actions in every encounter. Jango's Clone son flees Kamino with his father when Obi-Wan's investigations come close to revealing the truth. Although only ten years old, Boba is capable of operating Slave I's on-board weapons in an effort to defend his father from Obi-Wan. Boba inherits more than just his father's battle-scarred helmet and armour - in the years following the Clone Wars, he will become in turn one of the most notorious and highly paid mercenaries in the galaxy. |
