Bib Fortuna

    Bib Fortuna

    Those attempting to do business with Jabba the Hutt first needed to maneuver past his pasty-faced majordomo, the Twi'lek Bib Fortuna. The darkly robed attendant often hovered near Jabba's ear, offering advice and feeding information. Fortuna followed the rules of protocol in the Hutt's court (such as they were), and spoke only in Huttese, though he understood other tongues. Fortuna's affiliation with Jabba stretched over decades.

FALL OF THE REPUBLIC

Bib Fortuna beside Jabba the Hutt at the Mos Espa pod race

The Twi’lek majordomo Bib Fortuna served Jabba the Hutt for decades, granting visitors audiences with his master – or, sometimes, denying them that access. Fortuna’s position demanded extraordinary patience in dealing with everything from drunken thugs to haughty emissaries, with Jabba’s mercurial moods a particular hazard of the job.
