[edit] Biography
During the Clone Wars, Viento secretly aligned with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and planned to sabotage many Loyalist senators' speeders. He also helped arrange for Finis Valorum's assassination, a plot which also involved fallen Jedi Master Sora Bulq and Anzati assassin Sajé Tasha.
He was assassinated in 21 BBY by Quinlan Vos, who believed him to be Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord Count Dooku had mentioned to Obi-Wan Kenobi on Geonosis, due to misinterpreting Dooku (who wished him dead due to Viento attempting to double-cross him). Viento's bodyguard was K'Kruhk.
After his death, Viento was frozen in carbonite and placed in the Senatorial Tombs.
