Overseer was the title given to a leader of the GenoHaradan, a secret society of elite assassins and bounty hunters who saw it as their mission to safeguard the Galactic Republic. Four Overseers controlled the guild at any given time so that the leaders' individual interests would counteract each other, and each Overseer was to remain anonymous for his or her own protection. One of the more notable Overseers was Hulas, who may have attempted to eliminate his three peers and take sole control of the GenoHaradan in 3956 BBY.
