Skosef

Skosef was a Human male general in the Galactic Empire's Imperial Army. By 1 BBY, Skosef had joined a plot led by Grand Moff Trachta to overthrow the two Sith Lords leading the Empire, Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader. As a part of the plot, Skosef oversaw the bombing of Palpatine's Lambda-class T-4a shuttle, which was destined for the Empire's DS-1 Orbital Battle Station superweapon. Although Palpatine escaped the shuttle's demise, the blast killed half of the Emperor's Royal Guard and many Imperial stormtroopers, a vital part of Trachta's plan.

After Skosef was suspected by the Imperials of being connected with the bombing, Trachta assigned Skosef to assassinate Grand Moff Bartam, another member of their plot, as the conspirators turned against one another. Skosef successfully killed Bartam but was in turn killed by a stormtrooper right after the assassination.
