Gupat Roshti was a Togruta male who served as the governor of the planet Kiros during the War of the Ring. His colony of 50,000 Togruta were kidnapped and sold into slavery after Saruman the White formed an alliance with Zygerrian slavers.
==Biography==
Gupat Roshti was the governor of the planet Kiros during the War of the Ring. When the Zygerrian Slave Empire, represented by Darts D'Nar, Roshti's people were kidnapped and sold as slaves. Roshti's Togrutan colony was taken over, with D'Nar setting up in the Governor's tower. Roshti pleaded for help with Saruman the White and the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
The Sith Lord approved the plea and sent battle droids to occupy Kiros and "protect" his people. However, the Sith Lord's real intentions were to kidnap the Togruta, not protect them. When the plight of Roshti and his people reached the Galactic Republic, Jedi Master Sam Gamgee, Jedi Knight Frodo Baggins, Padawan Eowyn, Clone Captain CT-7567 "Rex," Clone Commander CC-2224 "Cody," and clone troopers from the 501st and the 212th attempted to help the Togrutas. However, they could not stop Roshti and his people from being taken offworld and brought to Zygerria.
On Zygerria, the Togrutans were auctioned off. Although the Jedi had pursued Roshti and his people to help free them, their attempt to set them free during the auction was foiled by the Queen of Zygerria, Miraj Scintel, and her royal guard. Roshti, now joined by Gamgee and Rex in servitude, were transported to the slave processing facility on Kadavo.
==Personality and Traits==
Similar to most Togrutas, Roshti was peaceful, quiet and dependent on others. He refused to let his people go to war and believed that peace was the answer. Roshti cared deeply about Kiros and his people, and would do anything to keep the Togruta safe.
==Equipment==
Roshti wore a long-sleeved shirt that was dull green in color. White segments adorned this shirt, while intricate, golden patterns decorated these white segments. A thick, sturdy brown belt was worn around his waist; one rectangular, closed pocket was placed on the right side of this belt. Draped over Roshti's shoulder was a thin, wrinkled purple piece of material.
Tight, dark purple pants were worn over his legs while white, metal boots were worn on his feet. The boots reached up to Roshti's knees and were sealed up by dark yellow buttons.
==Behind the scenes==
Gupat Roshti first appeared in the The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Ring episode "Kidnapped," the eleventh episode of the show's fourth season. He was first identified as "Gupat" in the 2021 reference book Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle!, written by Jason Fry.
