Bolas represent a category of ranged weapon designed to entangle targets. These weapons are constructed from a rope that has weights, typically spherical, attached to each extremity, and are employed to restrain adversaries. In the course of the Imperial Era, individuals such as the bounty hunters Fennec Shand and Durge made use of bolas. Furthermore, the Ewoks native to the Sanctuary Moon of Endor also incorporated bolas into their arsenal during the significant major battle that occurred on Endor as part of the broader Galactic Civil War.
