Poggle the Lesser was a Geonosian male who ruled as Archduke of the Stalgasin hive on Geonosis, serving as the public face of the Geonosians while ultimately answering to the hive queen Karina the Great. Having gained control of the planet's Baktoid Armor Workshop battle droid factories, he manufactured vast numbers of B1-series battle droids and became a leading figure in the Confederacy of Independent Systems, joining its Separatist Council.
A committed supporter of Count Dooku's cause, Poggle commanded Separatist forces on Geonosis during the Clone Wars and was closely tied to the superweapon plans that would later become the Death Star. Captured by the Republic, briefly coerced into cooperation, and afterward escaping back to the Confederacy, he was among the Separatist leaders killed on Mustafar by Darth Vader in the final days of the war.
