[edit] Biography
The gang was known throughout the planet due to their reputation; no one who set out after them came back. He could almost always be seen smoking t'bac. After a run-in with hired bounty hunter Jango Fett, Longo was captured and taken to Jabba Desilijic Tiure, who had earlier placed a large bounty on his head.
Longo's weapons of choice were two modified "Womp rat" blaster pistols. He had the best aim of any blasterslinger on Tatooine. His skill as a marksman were complimented by good showmanship: he was very proficient at twirling the two guns in his fingers. Unfortunately for Longo, however, Jango Fett's Mandalorian body armor was able to deflect the weak blaster fire.
It was rumored he was hired by Gardulla the Elder to reclaim several towns owned by Jabba the Hutt. This resulted in the deaths of four of Jabba's personal assistants at the hands of Longo. Jabba then put out a 50,000 credit bounty on Longo's head, which Jango Fett set out to claim. After tracking the criminal to his lair, Jango defeated Longo. It is unknown whether Fett killed Longo or took him alive. If he was captured alive and taken to Jabba, Longo was most likely tortured to death by Jabba.
[edit] Personality and traits
Longo Two-Guns acts and speaks much like someone from cowboy culture going as far as twirling his two guns in his fingers. He also complements a person's skills telling Jango that he's good no-one has managed to reach to him. Also known to brag about his skills often saying that he could "Shoot the whiskers off a Scurrier at fifty Wookiee's paces.". He was also very confident coaxing Jango into challenging him and his "boys" when Jango murmurs "Makes it difficult to decide" he at first believes that Jango is scared, before the next line shows he is mistaken.
