Zam Wesell

This shapeshifting bounty hunter operates in the shadows of the galaxy’s criminal underworld, wielding her natural Clawdite abilities to become one of the most sought-after assassins in the Outer Rim. Hailing from the planet Zolan, she possesses the rare genetic gift of metamorphosis, allowing her to alter her appearance at will and slip undetected through any crowd or security checkpoint.

Her reputation caught the attention of the notorious Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, who recruited her for a high-stakes mission on Coruscant. Tasked with eliminating Senator Padmé Amidala, she demonstrated her cunning by employing a two-stage assassination attempt involving deadly kouhuns—centipede-like creatures designed to kill silently. When this elaborate scheme failed, she attempted to escape through the bustling skylanes of the galactic capital.

The pursuit that followed showcased both her desperation and resourcefulness as she commandeered various vehicles whilst being chased by Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. Her flight through Coruscant’s towering cityscape became a deadly game of cat and mouse, weaving between speeder traffic and construction sites in increasingly dangerous manoeuvres.

Portrayed by Leeanna Walsman, the character represents the morally ambiguous figures who populate the galaxy’s fringes, operating outside the law for profit rather than ideology. Her brief but memorable appearance established the Clawdites as a fascinating species within the Star Wars universe, demonstrating how natural evolutionary advantages can be weaponised in a galaxy where survival often depends on deception.
