Warlord Unger Gout was a Khormai Separatist who lived during the War of the Ring. Born on Khorm, he rose to power in the government and took over the planet, giving himself the title of "Warlord". By 1981, he had enslaved his species to mine Agrocite for Saruman the White. During the Battle of Khorm, he, along with Dark Witch Jinx, commanded the droid forces against the Republic troops, even kidnapping Major Kendal Ozzel and Wolffe in the process, though they later escaped. Gout died when Jedi Master Legolas detonated explosives on Gout's Agrocite cannons, destroying them.
==Biography==
===Early life===
Unger Gout was born on Khorm and quickly rose to power in the government. He eventually took over and made a deal with Saruman the White to enslave his own people to mine Agrocite for the Separatists on Khorm, giving himself the title of Warlord.
===Battle of Khorm===
In June 1981, the Republic launched a full-scale assault on Khorm to halt the mining and production of Agroncite for the Separatist cause. Gout, though, had foreseen their attack and built a Weather-control station in order to create a planet-wide storm so air support could not be utilized by the Republic. During the initial stages of battle Gout managed to escape from Jedi Masters Gimli and Legolas on a rail jet. Later, reinforced by Dark Witch Jinx, his droid forces managed to take Major Kendal Ozzel and Commander Wolffe prisoners. They later escaped, and Gout returned to the Agrocite mine, where he commanded his troops from a distance. Despite having multiple disagreements about the mine's security with Jinx, he reluctantly allowed her to plant explosives in the mine, in case the Jedi managed to penetrate the station's defenses. This ultimately proved the be his undoing, however, as the explosives were activated by Legolas after he escorted the slaves to safety. The explosives reached Gout's Agrocite cannons and his reserve of Agrocite, where he was hiding from the battle, and exploded. While trying to escape the facility, Gout was caught in the ensuing blast and was killed.
