Legend

this P'w'eck arrived on Bakura as the advance leader of the P'w'eck Emancipation Movement, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Outwardly, Lwothin was representing his people in an effort to form an alliance with the Bakurans, which would allow both races and planets to exist together, outside the auspices of the New Republic. In reality, he was merely a puppet of his Ssi-ruuk masters, who themselves were being controlled by the Yuuzhan Vong. Lwothin was nothing more than a figurehead and puppet, who did exactly what the Keeramak ordered him to do. However, the Keeramak and its Ssi-ruuvi cohorts didn't anticipate the desire for independence of their P'w'eck assistants. After the Solo family and the surviving members of the Freedom movement were brought before the Keeramak, Lwothin was ordered to shoot them dead. Instead, Lwothin turned his weapon to shoot and kill the Keeramak, ending the plot to subjugate Bakura. His actions inspired the rest of the P'w'eck contingency at Bakura, resulting in the overtaking of the cruisers Firrinree and Errinung'ka before the Bakuran fleet could be destroyed. In the wake of the P'w'eck uprising, Lwothin agreed to ally the P'w'eck with the Bakurans in a common defense against their enemies, with the strength and support of the Galactic Alliance backing them up.
