Background: Maketh Tua was a human female that hailed from the planet Lothal, and was a graduate of the Imperial Academy. She entered the ranks of the Empire, serving as an assistant minister to Governor Ryder Azadi and, eventually, Arihnda Pryce when she became the new governor of Lothal on behalf of the Empire. In the absence of Governor Pryce, Tua was tasked with overseeing Lothal’s industries, ensuring they all operated at peak efficiency for the Empire. However, after a string of failures to put down a growing rebellion on her homeworld, Lothal was visited by Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, the Imperial Governor of the Outer Rim. He berated her and the other Imperial leaders for their failures, even executing Commandant Cumberlayne Aresko and Taskmaster Myles Grint for their incompetence, and took control of the situation himself.
However, Tarkin’s efforts ultimately resulted in the rebels destroying his flagship, the Sovereign, and the death of the Grand Inquisitor. In retribution, Tarkin ordered Tua to locate the rebels. Despite doubling patrols, setting up security checkpoints, and establishing curfews, she could not discover the cell’s whereabouts. In response, the Emperor dispatched his chief enforcer and apprentice, the Sith Lord Darth Vader, to deal with the situation. Having failed the Grand Moff, she was summoned to meet with him the next day to atone for her failure.
Fearing for her life, she contacted the cell. She arranged for passage off of Lothal in exchange for a list of rebel sympathizers provided on Lothal and its neighboring systems and information regarding the Empire’s true mission on Lothal. Vader, however, suspected she would run and decided to use her to draw out the rebels and lead the Empire to the larger rebellion. Kallus, an agent of the Imperial Security Bureau, programmed a spy droid to shadow the minister and then personally escorted her to her shuttle for her meeting. However, the cell attacked the shuttle that day, and a rebel ordered Tua to board the ship, telling her they would be right behind her. As she entered the trooper compartment, the vehicle exploded, killing the minister.
