Biography[]
The Head of the Pyke Syndicate was a high ranking member of the Pyke Syndicate who was in charge of their operations on the planet Tatooine, seeking to further advance the Syndicate's spice trade. When the Syndicate was attacked by a local Tusken Raider tribe, thus interfering with their spice trade, the Pyke Boss was approached by famed bounty hunter Boba Fett, who attempted to make a deal so the Syndicate would pay protection money to the Tuskens, but was refused by the Boss, not wanting to be taken advantage of.
However, after Fett departed, the Pyke Boss sent his forces to massacre the Tusken Raider tribe, framing the Nikto biker gang for this act. In return, Boba Fett took revenge on the bikers, allowing the Pyke Syndicate to no longer pay protection fees to the Bikers as well, leaving no loose ends.
A peroid of time later, the Pyke Boss and the Syndicate were promised Tatooine by the Mayor of Mos Espa Mok Shaiz, allowing them to pass their spice through the city. This put the Syndicate into conflict with Boba Fett, who has taken over Jabba the Hutt's criminal empire and its territories.
After the battle of Mos Espa, where Cad Bane is killed by Boba Fett, the Pyke Boss was killed along with Mok Shaiz, Dokk Strassi, the unidentified Klatooinian don and Garfalaquox by Fennec Shand, ending the threat of the Pyke Syndicate on Tatooine.
