Jaspar Skeete held the position of City Governor in D'larah throughout the Galactic Civil War. The Galactic Empire selected him from a group of potential leaders within the city. While he possessed a friendly demeanor, he lacked the necessary skills to effectively manage crises. This deficiency proved problematic when the announcement of Demophon's sun going supernova was made, making it a challenge to maintain order among the citizens. It was widely speculated that Skeete kept a starship ready at all times, prepared to flee the moment the supernova warnings were triggered.
