Takeel was a Snivvian mercenary and burned-out spice addict who frequented Chalmun's Cantina, looking for employment. He was also known by the nickname "Hunchback".

Biography
Edit
Takeel at times worked for Durga Besadii Tai, Jabba Desilijic Tiure, and the Galactic Empire, and earned his reputation as a double-crosser from his habit of turning over lawbreakers (including former partners) to Imperial law enforcement.
Takeel was the brother of Zutton. Like all Snivvians, he would sometimes be nicknamed "Snaggletooth" by other species.
Behind the scenes
Edit
A card from the Customizable Card Game titled "Hunchback" only shows Takeel from behind. The card reads "What hump?", probably a reference to a line from the film Young Frankenstein.
Takeel can be seen in A New Hope with "human hands", as his actor wasn't given gloves or later produced prosthetic Snivvian hands.
