Unidentified Bothan Imperial agent

A Bothan female Imperial agent in a ploy to assassinate a group of individuals on the planet Bothawui during the Galactic Civil War.

The Bothan was assigned as a hunting guide, masquerading to assist and instruct the hunters into capturing a pair of Krak'jyas on the account of a Bothan clan. The guide made sure that all weapons were non-lethal, complying to Bothawui's hunt policies. The group departed a luxury hunting lodge on a snowspeeder to the planet's northern ice fields, and the guide gave them instructions. They landed to the edge of a glacier above a valley where they set up a base camp before the snowspeeder left at sunset.

During their first night, the camp was attacked by a wild ganjuko beast, smashing shelters and equipment, and the Bothan sustained life-threatening injuries. This seemed to ruin her plans, but the hunters stabilized her condition with medpacs, and after repairing the comlink they called for help. But instead, bounty hunters showed up from the snowspeeder, followed by Imperials.

The hunters managed to escape to the speeder, carrying the wounded Bothan, and pursued by the Imperial snowspeeder, they made it back to the lodge, although they had to walk in the snow under the stalking of krak'jyas.

In the lodge they regrouped, surrounded by a dozen of the remaining Imperials. The agent recovered, allowing her to make her move, revealing it was she who set them up. Equipped with a small remote detonator, she ambushed the hunters from behind, only to be neutralized in the end. Then they found the detonator, and dashed out moments before the lodge exploded.
