HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Born and raised in middle class Cloud City, Botagg's family worked in administration for the powerful Tibanna gas mining companies, drifting between those who offered the greatest pay and benefits. Botagg graduated university with a degree in literature and drifted into civilian administration. He mostly flew under the radar until the First Order assumed control of the system. From there he was appointed to serve as a point of contact between the First Order's local regime and the commerce giants which dominated Bespin.

Botagg fulfilled his job faithfully for years, finding a wife, having a child and, unfortunately, a divorce not long after. The First Order's evacuation of Bespin caught the planet by surprise and various factions began vying for political influence. Once the dust was settled, the role of Baron Administrator was, quite shocking, handed to Liedol Botagg. The sudden appointment of a mid-tier civil servant was widely justified as the compromise candidate, a man who would not be alone in senior office but with a dedicated team. Someone who had worked hard through his life and was reliable enough to steer both the Imperial and commerce factions into a middle ground at least until the hard time were over.

Unknown to all, even Botagg himself, a sinister seed has been planted in his mind. The Baron Administrator is telepathically linked to Samka Derith, a senior leader of the mysterious Dark Side organisation known as the Knights of Ren. Subtle manipulation guides his tenure as leader of the one of the economic hubs of the galaxy.
