Villpu Nagg

"Villpu Nagg. I have learned that a small Jedi strike force is on its way to destroy the weather station. Count Dooku’s assassin is leading a commando unit to eliminate them."

- Unger Gout to Nagg

Villpu Nagg was a male Aqualish technician who served the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Around 22 BBY, the Confederacy took control of the planet Khorm. To defend Khorm from Republic forces, the Confederates built a weather-control station on Kafiri Mountain. Nagg was placed in charge of the station, which created storms in order to prevent Republic Troops from landing. The Republic, however, managed to land several Units on Khorm. Nagg was then contacted by Warlord Unger Gout, who informed him that two Jedi were on the way to destroy the station. Nagg was ordered to create a storm strong enough to kill the Jedi. The Aqualish created the storm, however, the Jedi were able to redirect it on the station itself. The storm destroyed the station and killed Nagg.

Biography
Villpu Nagg was a male Aqualish technician who lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. When the Clone Wars broke out, Nagg joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Around 22 BBY, Nagg was placed in command of a weather-control station on the planet Khorm, a world where the costly agrocite mineral, which increased the power of starfighters, was found. The station was built on the Kafiri Mountain and created storms to prevent Republic forces from landing and capturing the agrocite mines. A Republic task force, however, managed to land several troops on Khorm and captured a Confederate agrocite processing facility. The Jedi Generals Kit Fisto and Plo Koon then decided to destroy the weather-control station in order to allow more reinforcements to land.

Warlord Unger Gout, the Confederate commander, then contacted Nagg and informed him of the Jedi treat. He also told him that the Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress was on her way to kill the Jedi, but nevertheless ordered Nagg to create a storm large enough to kill the Jedi as well as Ventress. While Nagg was hesitant about the possibility to kill Ventress, Gout insisted that Nagg carried out his orders. The Jedi survived however, and managed to reach one of the station's junction boxes. With the help of a clone trooper they sliced the box and changed the coordinates of the storm to the weather-control station itself. The storm destroyed the station completely and killed Nagg and his staff.

Personality and traits
"Sir! Someone has realigned the storm's focal node&mdash;the storm's right on top of us!"

- A subordinate to Nagg, shortly before their deaths

Nagg was trusted enough by Gout to control Khorm's best defensive structure. Although he was at first hestitant to kill Ventress along with the Jedi, Gout soon persuaded him that it was better than face two Jedi Knights alone.
