Biography


A Skakoan from Skako, Tambor spent much of his time on the harsh industrial world of Metalorn. As one of the few Skakoans to venture offworld, Wat Tambor wore a full-body pressure suit, to prevent being explosively decompressed in standard atmospheres, as the native atmospheric pressure of Skako was completely different from that of most planets. Wat Tambor pledged the Techno Union army to the military forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Tambor was on Xagobah during a battle on the planet. Boba Fett arrived on the planet to capture Tambor for Jabba the Hutt, but failed after confronting General Grievous.

He was killed by Anakin Skywalker, now Darth Sidious's apprentice Darth Vader, along with the other members of the Separatist Council on Mustafar. Wat tried to break through the wall of the Separatist Council Conference Room with his metal arms, but Vader reached him before he succeeded. In an attempt to spare his life, Wat promised Vader to give him anything he wanted, but Vader coldly struck him down.
