Aurra Sing was a Force-sensitive female Palliduvan who left the Jedi Order to take up the life of a bounty hunter. Operating prior to and during the Clone Wars, she was present on Tatooine, where she watched the Boonta Eve Classic podrace, during the Trade Federation‘s invasion of the planet Naboo. During this time, she also became acquainted with Weequay pirate captain, Hondo Ohnaka. After the outbreak of the Clone Wars and the death of fellow bounty hunter Jango Fett, Sing trained Fett’s son, Boba Fett, and helped him in an unsuccessful attempt to kill Jedi Master Mace Windu, who killed Jango on Geonosis. After parting ways with Boba, Sing took jobs from Ziro the Hutt and Cad Bane. Sing’s bounty hunter career, however, ultimately came to an end with her death at the hands of Tobias Beckett.

Aurra Sing was one of the most powerful and ruthless bounty hunters in the galaxy. She had no qualms about killing, whether it be executing wounded clone troopers or former partners such as Castas. Despite her ruthlessness, Sing was also somewhat of a mother figure to Boba Fett during his teenage years, sometimes addressing him as «Honey» and stopping him from drinking alcohol in Hondo Ohnaka’s bar. Despite this, she was also selfish, and she abandoned Fett to save herself after the boy was captured by Plo Koon.

Sing also tried to serve as a mentor to Fett, as shown by when she tried to make him murder the helpless Clone Commander Ponds and, when he hesitated, she simply shoved him aside and killed Ponds herself. Aurra Sing also had a romantic relationship with Hondo Ohnaka, and though they were no longer lovers, Ohnaka still referred to her as «My Dear.» Consequently, after Sing and Boba arrived at Ohnaka’s base, he asked if Boba was his son. Even with their past, Ohnaka refused to help Sing when she tried to lure Ahsoka Tano and Plo Koon into a trap.
