In the early years of the Galactic Empire, a human male named Tomas Azoras held the rank of officer within the Imperial Officer Corps. Azoras, alongside four fellow officers, met his end due to a plot against Darth Vader; Vader declared that even with suspicions about the conspirators, he would inevitably prevail. This all happened during the days of the Empire.
Tomas Azoras was a male human who served the Galactic Empire as an officer in the Imperial Officer Corps. After bounty hunters attempted to assassinate Darth Vader on Cabarria, Vader, upon arriving at Coruscant, instructed his droid to investigate the origins of the kill order. The droid reported that the contract originated from the highest echelons of the Imperial Executive Building, even tracing back to the offices of Emperor Palpatine. The droid further indicated a 97% probability of the signal's origin from that location, with no evidence of slicing.
Subsequently, Vader requested a list of individuals possessing Imperial system access codes above Level 1A1. This list included Azoras, along with Corin Ferro, Wilhuff Tarkin, Cassio Tagge, Jer Croteau, Joon Strephi, and Zorta Bingan. Following a second assassination attempt in orbit that resulted in Vader and the Ninth Sister crashing their starship, Vader spoke with the Emperor and meditated. He discovered that Barokki, an officer he had previously used the Force to choke, was also involved. Vader then presented a solution to the Emperor.
Azoras, along with a group of other officers, were summoned to an auditorium on Coruscant. Vader's rationale for the conspiracy was that the officers did not comprehend why he held the position of second-in-command to Emperor Palpatine. After a short speech by Emperor Palpatine explaining that Vader was his voice and second in command, Vader "randomly" chose Azoras, along with Ferro, Strephi, Barokki, and Bingan, and killed them using the Force. He then proclaimed that despite any suspicions about conspirators, he would always survive. Among those killed, Barokki was one of the two officers involved in the conspiracy. The other conspirator, identified by two missing fingers, was not selected and was therefore spared.
