One of my favorite factions in the Star Wars universe would be the bounty hunters. They look so cool, are independent from the greater groups in the galaxy, unique from one another, and overall just look freaking awesome.

With the title of "bounty hunter," you might think they're naturally evil — but that's not the case at all. They're really just trying to do their jobs and provide for themselves or their families. It's not their fault they're getting recruited by "the bad guys" 80% of the time. The good guys just have more time on their hands to do things themselves, right?

Here is my list of the top 11 bounty hunters from "Star Wars." (If I could think of 17 bounty hunters to list I would — and Dengar would be number 18 on that list. He's a loser.)

11. Bossk.

Being a Trandoshan — a species who are known to be ruthlessness hunters anyway — helps Bossk on any mission he gets hired for. We see him reign terror in a few episodes of "The Clone Wars" TV show, and being one of the bounty hunters we see Vader hire in ESB, we know he made a name for himself.

10. Aurra Sing.

Aurra scares me. If there was a job posted to capture somebody dead or alive — you'd be dead. She also has about a three-second clip in "The Phantom Menace" which is cool as she never got backing in her story until "The Clone Wars."

9. Ketsu Onyo.

Although she's technically a human, she's also a Mandalorian. Mandalorians are traditionally some of the toughest and fiercest fighters you'd ever meet in the galaxy. If you need an idea, they used to pride themselves on being Jedi killers.

8. Jango Fett.

Although he wears the armor of a Mandalorian, he isn't technically one of them — but don't let that fool you. There is a reason his DNA was used for the creation of a clone army.

7. IG-88.

What do most bounty hunters have that IG-88 doesn't? A heart. This bounty hunter is all droid, so while all other hunters may lack most of their humility, this droid doesn't have any to miss. If you're on his list, you're on the list and there isn't a chance to talk him out of it.

6. Cad Bane.

This may upset a lot of people that he's number 6 on my list as he is extremely popular in the Star Wars fan base... but I ask why? We see a lot of him in "The Clone Wars" and I honestly think most of what we see of him is over-hyped. But to credit where credit is due, he does have cool hats,

5. Zam Wessell.

Although we only get a brief sighting of her in "Attack of the Clones," the fact that she was hired by another bounty hunter says a lot about her character. And I really feel that being a shapeshifter would be a major plus to any career.

4. Black Krrsantan.

If you don't know Krrsantan just picture a bigger, angrier, tougher version of Chewbacca. Chewbacca is said to have ripped arms off, but I'm pretty sure Krrsantan could rip someone in two.

3. Embo.

I really can't get enough of Embo. If I existed in the Star Wars universe and ended up with a bounty on me, I'd hope that Embo is the one to take me out. He's mysterious, fierce, well trained, and overall a bad-ass. I wish he'd be in more canon content outside of "The Clone Wars."

2. Boba Fett.

Boba gets so much slack for being labeled as such a badass only to die by falling into a Sarlacc pit after being hit by a blind guy with a stick — BUT I DON'T CARE. He built up the name claim he rightfully owns. After seeing his father beheaded by a Jedi, being raised by other bounty hunters, and working for Vader on multiple occasions, he had a truly crazy life. It's also theorized he survived the Sarlacc pit... which I believe.

1. Asajj Ventress.

I said at the start of this that bounty hunters were one of my favorite factions. Another group above them would be force users... so naturally, if there was a combo of the two, it would be at the top of my list. Asajj Ventress is that person. Having been trained in the ways of the force from a young age and wielding custom dual red lightsabers makes her one of the toughest bounty hunters of all time. She held her own against Kenobi and Skywalker on multiple occasions.
