Biography
"My fall from grace was carefully orchestrated. Only a fool would want to be captain of Lord Vader's flagship: The mortality rate is phenomenal."

- Alima to Momaw Nadon

Alima was born on Coruscant. He rose through the ranks of the Navy to reach captain of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Conquest.

He was given the task of subjugating Ithor and leveled much of Ithor's Cathor Hills. For his actions he was given the opportunity of becoming captain of Darth Vader's flagship. Realizing the threat this posed to his life, Alima purposefully got himself demoted to prevent himself from becoming captain.

Afterwards he was placed in charge of locating C-3PO and R2-D2 on Tatooine and discovered Momaw Nadon, his old Ithorian nemesis, in Mos Eisley, and demanded that the Ithorian find the droids or the Empire would wipe out his gardens.

After the Millennium Falcon escaped from Tatooine, Nadon told the Imperial Prefect that Alima had ignored Nadon's information regarding the Millennium Falcon. Alima was executed by the Prefect instantly. Nadon, regreting his actions, stole genetic samples of Alima's DNA and cloned the former captain. In keeping with the Law of Life, Nadon made two clones of Alima, in punishment for Alima's actions, and as a reminder of Nadon's.
