==Biography==
Tommet Sozach was a Ginmid who made a living working as the leader of a mercenary army made up exclusively of members of his own species. After he had commanded the army for some time, the mercenary group broke up when the prospect of a lasting peace in the galaxy arose, with Sozach choosing to break out on his own when the predictions of prolonged peace proved accurate. Trying to make a living through other means, Sozach succeeded as a crowd-pleasing trick shooter in a marksmanship show that he put on until a demonstration went wrong and resulted in a fatal accident.
