A Gossam served as the senator representing the Commerce Guild within the Imperial Senate throughout the Galactic Empire's reign. The Empire itself was the successor to the Galactic Republic.
This senator's initial appearances were in "The Clone Conspiracy" and "Truth and Consequences," which were the seventh and eighth episodes from Star Wars: The Bad Batch's second season. Both of these episodes were broadcast on February 8, 2023. Walt Disney Studios released an asset on Getty Images that has since been removed, and it identified the character in a caption as "Senator Gossam."
