Biography

The Siege of Cog Hive Seven

When Jabba launched his assault on Cog Hive Seven, Scuppa accompanied him as part of his entourage. Aboard the Star Jewel, they successfully seized the prison transport Purge, utilizing it as a means to infiltrate the prison facility undetected.

Death

Due to Jabba's distrust of Scuppa's allegiance, he arranged for surgeons to implant a vial containing xenoboric acid into Scuppa's cranium following a head injury that necessitated surgical intervention. This measure allowed Jabba to eliminate Scuppa at any moment should he betray him, by remotely activating the release of the acid.

Scuppa piloted Jabba to the planet of Gaar Suppoon, and on their return journey to Tatooine, they encountered a Nuffin freighter. In an attempt to plunder the freighter, Jabba, Scuppa, Bib Fortuna, accompanied by two Weequay guards, boarded the vessel. However, they were instead captured by the guards of Princess Nampi. Fortuna and the Weequay were confined to the brig, while Jabba and Scuppa were brought before Nampi, who sought the treasure held on Jabba's ship. When Jabba refused to provide the deactivation code for the ship's security system, she ordered his imprisonment in the brig as well. As guards escorted him away, Jabba instructed Scuppa to withhold information from Nampi. Scuppa, however, had different intentions.

Scuppa's demise.

Prioritizing his own survival over loyalty, Scuppa suggested to Princess Nampi that, with Jabba incapacitated, he assumed command of their vessel and could compel Jabba to surrender the code to Nampi. This plan backfired, leading Nampi to order Scuppa's execution. Surprisingly, Scuppa requested a warrior's death to avoid disappointing the princess. Captivated, Nampi fell in love with Scuppa and decided to marry him. Seeing an opportunity for advancement, Scuppa accepted, unaware that Nampi's species practiced the consumption of their husbands on their wedding night, a detail that Nampi's guards, while assisting Scuppa in preparing for the wedding, neglected to mention.

On the wedding night, Nampi devoured Scuppa alive. Nevertheless, his betrayal of Jabba ultimately saved the Hutt's life. Jabba activated the remote control, releasing the acid from the vial within Scuppa's head into Nampi, resulting in her almost immediate death.
