Tardi

Viscount Tardi was the finance minister for the Rebel Alliance during the early days of the Galactic Civil War. He worked with Princess Leia to negotiate a large sale of T-65 X-wing starfighters for the rebel forces. Leia and Tardi made arrangements to finance the loan at the branch offices of the Bank of Aargau, located on the planet Aargau. However, Tardi passed away before the final arrangements could be made.

Desperate to push the loan through, Princess Leia had a droid constructed in the Viscount's likeness. She traveled to Aargau with the fake Viscount in order to finalize all of the legal requirements. Leia knew however, that she would never be able to leave Aargau without the InterGalactic Banking Clan's customs center scanning Tardi for possible hidden contraband. If the Viscount's existence were proven fraudulent, it would render the loan invalid and Leia would be arrested. Leia found a way out of this precarious circumstance when she discovered that Darth Vader was present on Aargau. She baited Darth Vader into attacking Tardi and destroying him. As Tardi's official death took place after the loan transfer, Leia was successfully able to finance a new X-wing squadron.

In life, Viscount Tardi was a regal-looking man with thinning, gray hair and a long, stylish mustache.
