Plot to assassinate Chancellor Palpatine

"There's a war coming and our benefactor wants to make sure the right side gets a headstart. Our target is the Chancellor himself&mdash;Palpatine&hellip; And no one on Coruscant can stop us!"

- Kellsara Llkench

An assassination attempt on the person of Palpatine, then Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic, was carried out at some point before 13:2:28 GRS. The mission, which was fomented by the newly founded Confederacy of Independent Systems led by the self-defrocked Jedi Master Dooku, involved a group of five mercenaries, including the famed assassin Kellsara Llkench. The Separatist-aligned mercenaries were supposed to murder the Chancellor inside the Nabooan embassy on Coruscant, which the Chancellor was to visit. However, their mission failed when Jar Jar Binks, a Gungan who acted as the Security Advisor to Captain Gregar Typho, intervened and unwittingly knocked the assassins out.
