- ―T7-O1
During his time as a Galactic Republic statesman, the Alderaanian noble Eckhorn Baliss owned a personal ship that could carry at least one person. Baliss, who was actually a spy for the Sith Empire during the Great Galactic War,[1] put himself in danger when he added the husband of Senator Verre Sydia[3] to a list of potential Imperial sympathizers.[1]
Sydia's husband was an Imperial operative as well, though he and Baliss were not aware of each other, and fearing his cover had been blown, the Senator's husband[3] used classified Senate accounts to hire the bounty hunter Terrin Sandafar.[4] In 3,663 BBY,[2] Sandafar[4] placed explosives aboard Baliss' ship and detonated them when the noble was in orbit over his homeworld of Alderaan, killing Baliss instantly. The event was ruled an accident,[1] but was later discovered to be Sandafar's work by the astromech droid T7-O1 and the Jedi Knight known as the Hero of Tython.[4]
