Unidentified Grand Vygoth

A Grand Vygoth of the Wandering Star was a male Pau'an who held the title for a long period of time. Around 231 BBY,The events of The High Republic: Trail of Shadows 2 take place weeks after the events of The High Republic: Trail of Shadows 1, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 231 BBY. during the High Republic Era, an undercover Pau'an agent of the Galactic Republic posed as a member of Wandering Star and met with the Tarnab criminal Arathab Fal about a weapon Fal's boss—the NihilThe High Republic: Trail of Shadows 2 Doctor Kisma UttersondThe High Republic: Trail of Shadows 3—was selling on the planet Vorzyd V.
After Fal asked the agent if he had money ready, the Pau'an responded that he did and noted that the Grand Vygoth was eager to get his hands on the weapon. The agent then stated he had been instructed to ensure that the weapon was legitimate, which caused the Tarnab to contact Uttersond and inform him that Wandering Star were making demands. In response, the doctor told Fal to kill the agent. Before he could, several Nihil arrived and a fight broke out, during which the Tarnab killed the agent and escaped.
During the Imperial Era, Cli Pastayra, who believed the Vygoth's old age had led to the syndicate's deterioration, hoped to overthrow him and take his place. Both Pastayra and the Grand Vygoth were murdered during an auction on Cantonica by Fyzen Gor and his droids.
