One of the most annoying critters in the Star Wars galaxy, Salacious B. Crumb was the favored
jester in the court of Jabba the Hutt. The
beak-nosed pot-bellied miscreant had a habit of breaking into a nerve-wracking cackle whenever the mood struck his flighty little
brain. The creature had a knack for mimicry, and would pester many by constantly repeating what was
said to him.
Crumb had an affinity for tormenting Jabba's other employees, most notably the Hutt's interpreters. When C-3PO became Jabba's property, Salacious antagonized the golden protocol droid mercilessly. As Luke Skywalker freed his allies, Crumb physically attacked Threepio, ripping the droid's eye from its socket. Fortunately, R2-D2 arrived and used his electric
prod to shock the
little beast. An angry Crumb retreated, and died moments later when the sail barge exploded.
