After the civil war ended , Brother Lemcke crowned Lee - Char king of Dac . He ruled as King for two years until he was killed during the Imperial invasion of Dac . Biography . Born some years prior to the Clone Wars , Lee - Char was the son of Dac ' s king , Yos of the Kolina family . Being the son of the king and in the royal bloodline , Lee - Char was set to be the king of Dac after his father died or if he resigned . Though , in 21 BBY , when the Separatists were starting to move into the Calamari system , Lee - Char ' s father was assassinated by an unknown assailant , forcing Lee - Char to become the new king . Shortly after his father was assassinated , a meeting was called to settle the dispute between the Quarren and the Mon Calamari to see if Lee - Char was to be the new king . While the Mon Calamari invited the Republic — Senator Padmé Amidala and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker acting as the representatives . Meanwhile , the Quarren invited the Separatists — with Riff Tamson acting as the representative — which ultimately began a dispute . Even though Lee - Char tried to reassure everyone that he would serve all his people faithfully , Mon Calamari and Quarren both , Tamson intervened and started up a quarrel and the Quarren left . Shortly after Captain Ackbar and the Republic representatives returned from their ship , Lee - Char was found with Dac ' s senator , Meena Tills , and his safety was entrusted to Ackbar and the captain was to be Lee - Char ' s bodyguard . Though , Ackbar raised his concerns to Tills about the prince ' s young age and his leading the military , he did as she said , and Lee - Char stated that he agreed with Ackbar . Before preparing for battle , Brother Lemcke addressed Lee - Char during a Mon Calamari and the Prince informed his people of how he was able to lead his people successfully . A battle ensued almost immediately after his talk and Lee - Char , accompanied by Skywalker and Ackbar , went to the battle field to watch over the attack . Though Skywalker disagreed , Lee - Char chose to stay with his people and told Ackbar to continue his offense . During the battle , Lee - Char led Amidala and Skywalker towards a shortcut so that they could get soldiers behind the battle droids , though , the tube to the short cut was destroyed and Lee - Char stated that they had to wait for the Republic reinforcements . Shortly after the destruction of the tube , Republic reinforcements , led by Commander Ahsoka Tano and Jedi General Kit Fisto , arrived and aided the Mon Calamari in battle . During the battle , the Mon Calamari started to cheer for the reinforcements and Ackbar told Lee - Char to make the cheering for him and gave him a blaster . Shortly after that , Riff Tamson swam towards Lee - Char to kill him , but Ahsoka Tano , who was using an underwater speeder , rushed towards him and saved him from the gnashing jaws of Tamson . Though , while in the tube , they were trapped by Tamson but were able to escape when several Mon Calamari guards attacked Tamson . Afterwards , the droids retreated and hid inside the coral , waiting for more reinforcements . Though , shortly after that , the city plaza was swarming with Hydroid Medusas , beasts from the planet Karkaris , and Lee - Char , under the supervision of Ackbar , ordered the soldiers to open fire . However , the droids reappeared and the second wave of the battle recommenced and Lee - Char and Ackbar led the retreat to the caves . Later on , the group contacted Masters Yoda and Mace Windu and asked for more reinforcements , but lost the connection moments later . The group then decided to head to the surface to reach the Republic cruiser . Though , before they got to the surface , the ship exploded and Lee - Char and company were forced to grab onto the wreckage to the sea floor . Lee - Char soon split up with Ahsoka , Kit , and the remaining clones , and they went into hiding . As they went into hiding , Lee - Char and company witnessed the planet ' s Mon Calamari population being escorted into work camps . Lee - Char then used a conch shell to make a loud sound , making the Mon Calamari look towards the Prince ' s direction , noticing that he was still alive and stated that they would fight for him , instilling hope in them . Droids then rushed over to kill the Prince , but were soon cut down by the Jedi . The Jedi reinforcements , the Gungans , arrived and assisted Lee - Char in freeing his people . However , a Separatist ship came and created a vortex around the Prince , and Tamson soon started to attack Ahsoka and Lee - Char . Though , Fisto soon distracted Tamson , and Lee - Char and Ahsoka were able to get away . Shortly after witnessing the rest of the Gungans taken to the work camps , Lee - Char stated that the failure was his . However , he then explained to Ahsoka that he needed to convince Nossor Ri to help them and planned to unite all the Quarren , Mon Calamari , and the Gungans . Lee - Char and Ahsoka then made their way to one of the prison camps to inform Ackbar of their plan . While discussing the plans with Ackbar , he said that the Quarren murdered his father , but Lee - Char stated that he knew all along that it was Riff Tamson , but was soon captured after that . While speaking with Tamson , Lee - Char pleaded for Nossor Ri ' s help , but was then taken outside to be executed . Before he could be executed , Nossor Ri went over to help the Prince and squirted ink to blind the Karkarodon bodyguards . In the ensuing skirmish , Ahsoka , Skywalker , Kit Fisto , and the Senators were freed and Ackbar , the Mon Calamari , Quarren , the clones , and the Gungans continued to fight against the Separatists . Meanwhile , Lee - Char , whose combat skills had improved since the start of the civil war , and his bodyguards continued to fight the droids , but Tamson arrived and killed his bodyguards . However , Lee - Char managed to grab an explosive device from Tamson ' s belt while battling the Karkadon and , upon learning that it was Tamson who murdered his father , vowed to return the favor and threw it right at him , stabbing him in the right part of his chest . Lee - Char then fired several shots from his spear blaster at the explosive as Tamson drew closer and closer , before firing one accurate shot that hit and detonated the explosive , killing the Separatist leader . Afterwards , Lee - Char was crowned as king of Mon Cala and pledged his loyalty to all people of Dac . However , when the Clone Wars came to an end and the Galactic Empire was established in 19 BBY , King Lee - Char was killed while he defended his world during the Imperial subjugation of Mon Calamari .
