Crutag was a Taloron Hunter, both fierce and determined. He was known to boast that he never failed to capture his bounty targets. He considered Boba Fett to be vastly overrated. Working together with fellow Bounty hunters Slizzik and Slimego, Crutag once pursued a band of Rebel agents who had a bounty on their heads. Crutag attacked their ship while it approached Trinta, causing it to crash land on the swamp world. Halagad Ventor, however, used the Force to prevent both Crutag and the rebels from leaving the planet.
