Hasquil

Lady Hasquil was a female political figure of the Galactic Republic who at one point acknowledged the sapient rights of the Mourushian Kelp. As a result, Hasquil was cocooned for fifty years. In 19 BBY, the Republic was reorganized into the Galactic Empire. That year, Senator Mon Mothma was detained and interrogated by Imperial security officers on the planet Coruscant. During her detainment, Mothma thought about several Republic political figures who she considered to have been wrongly imprisoned, including Hasquil, and felt that she was not like them.
