Yogar Lyste

Yogar Lyste, with the operating number LSM-03, was an officer of the Galactic Empire with the rank of lieutenant during the Imperial Era. He was stationed on the planet Lothal, where he served as the Imperial Supply Master of Capital City, keeping track of all weapons and gear shipped in, as well as any produced locally. In 3 BBY, Lyste was placed in charge of a military depot and hosted a relief mission led by Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan. The theft of three Sphyrna-class Hammerhead corvettes by the Spectres caused him considerable embarrassment.

Eventually, Lyste was promoted to the rank of lieutenant and made acting captain of an Imperial light cruiser. With his new position, he was responsible for monitoring who and what entered the star system, specifically aimed at defending the planets from rebels. In 2 BBY, Lieutenant Lyste came under the command of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who took an interest in the rebel insurgency in the Lothal sector. During the course of Thrawn's investigation into the identity of the rebel agent Fulcrum, Lyste was framed by his colleague, the Imperial Security Bureau Agent Alexsandr Kallus, who knew Lyste would likely be executed for the crimes he was accused of.
