Rogg Rogg was a male Tusken Raider who succeeded KkH ' Oar ' Rrhr as leader of the Grave Tuskens , a swoop gang of Tusken mercenaries in service to the Dark Jedi Maw . When Kyle Katarn and WeeGee attempted to escape from the Katarn homestead into Barons Hed , the band of Tuskens pursued them on swoops , though Rogg was assassinated during the chase by Bordo , his nominal second - in - command who was eager to usurp him as leader of the Grave Tuskens . Biography . Rogg was among the Tusken Raiders who admired KkH ' Oar ' Rrhr and abandoned their homeworld of Tatooine with him in search of A ' Sharad Hett , a Tusken - raised Human who left the planet in disgrace after he was unmasked in a duel with Jedi Master Obi - Wan Kenobi , a severe trespass in Tusken culture . The band searched the Outer Rim Territories , from Portug to Dromund Kaas , for Hett , but the searched ultimately proved futile , and the Tuskens were left destitute , hungry and discouraged . However , they were eventually found on Dromund Kaas by the Dark Jedi Maw , a minion of Emperor Palpatine , who organized Hoar ' s Tuskens into a swoop gang . Transporting them to Tython to rob ancient Jedi graves of Force artifacts , Maw dubbed them the Grave Tuskens and Hoar and his riders defiled their traditional Tusken masks , flaunting their bare faces to honor A ' Sharad Hett . However , their thievery soon attracted a far more powerful , cyborg Imperial dark - sider : the Emperor ' s Hand , Arden Lyn . In 2 ABY , after she interfered with one of Hoar ' s grave raids and defeated him in a duel , Lyn coerced Hoar into joining her mission to assassinate high - profile members of the Alliance to Restore the Republic , and he abandoned the Grave Tuskens to Maw ' s whim without a second thought and Rogg succeeded him as the swoop gang ' s leader , with Bordo becoming his nominal second - in - command . However , after three years of following Rogg ' s commands , Bordo became fed up with his leadership and became one of several Grave Tuskens eager to inherit his position . In 5 ABY , Maw sent the Grave Tuskens to guard the Katarn homestead on Sulon , where the Empire had stolen a map to the Valley of the Jedi . Rogg led the band of Tuskens in pursuing a T - 4 carrying Kyle Katarn , who had infiltrated his family ' s to recover the map , and his droid WeeGee , who were trying to escape into the spaceport of Barons Hed after discovering that it had already been taken . During the chase , however , Bordo made his move to usurp Rogg and shot him in the face , killing him and sending his swoop soaring into a canyon . Confident that his betrayal had gone unnoticed , Bordo then led the gang for the remainder of the pursuit , which ended with Bordo and most of the Grave Tuskens dead at the hands of Katarn . Personality and traits . A male Tusken Raider , Rogg admired KkH ' Oar ' Rrhr and joined him in the search for A ' Sharad Hett , even defiling his traditional Tusken mask and showing his face in Hett ' s honor , a severe trespass in Tusken culture . He enjoyed his position as leader of the Grave Tuskens and liked the power that it conveyed . However , he regarded the notion of leading from the front as impractical , as if he was killed , it would resulted in the loss of his valuable knowledge and experience , not to mention his life . He even opened the matter for discussion , hoping to convince the rest of his band that the traditional system was foolish , but was blocked by his nominal second - in - command Bordo , who regarded Rogg as a coward and wished to usurp his position as leader of the Grave Tuskens . At the time of his death , Rogg wore a charm pouch around his neck with the belief that it would protect him .
