Utoxx Prentioch

Utoxx Prentioch was a human male who became a warlord shortly after the Battle of Endor and commanded a short-lived breakaway faction of the Galactic Empire. Prentioch was the vain and ambitious Moff of the Sombure sector in the last years of Galactic Emperor Palpatine's reign, and when he learned of his demise at the Battle of Endor, he began consolidating his personal power in the sector. Within months, Prentioch was acting independently of the Galactic Empire and ruled the Sombure sector in his own name. Using old surveys and treaties purporting to demonstrate a larger Sombure sector as a pretext, Prentioch began invading neighboring sectors to expand his control, believing he could come to rule the entire Empire.

Prentioch, however, became bogged down in warfare with a fellow warlord, Moff Eyrgen, over the control of the Wornal sector, and Prentioch's Dominion never became very large. The New Republic marginalized and ignored it during its drive into the Core Worlds, and Prentioch's war with Eyrgen sapped his resources. In 6 ABY, Prentioch failed in his attempt to gain the planet Kaal's foodstuff exports to supply his forces, and later that year the Republic defeated and captured him in the siege of Bomis Koori, bringing his rule and his domain to an end.
