Motti

Conan Antonio Motti was human member of the Galactic Empire who served as an admiral in the Imperial Navy. Motti was one of the leading members of the Death Star project.

Motti and several other Imperial officers, including Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, attended a conference on the Death Star in 0 BBY. During the conference, Motti mocked Darth Vader and his devotion to the Dark Side of the Force. Vader proceeded to use the Force to choke Motti until Tarkin ordered Vader to stop.

Admiral Motti died shortly after, during the Battle of Yavin when the Rebel Alliance succeeded in destroying the Death Star, which the admiral was on during the destruction of the planet-destroying superweapon.
