Rune Haako
This was the Lieutenant to Nute Gunray and also the Settlement officer of the Trade Federation. He, like all Neimoidian's was a coward and when Nute Gunray agreed in siding with the Sith; Darth Sidious, he strongly voiced his fear of this being a bad decision. Then, after the pair blockaded Naboo, Darth Maul was sent to aid the Niemoidian's, but once again, Haako feared it was all getting too complex and dangerous, but it was too late for Rune and Nute, as they were in over their heads.
Soon though, the Clone Wars began and so the need for the Trade Federation was less, forcing the Neimoidian's to join the newly named CIS as such they were protected by General Grievous himself and kept out of the war all over.
One day though, the CIS leaders including Haako, Gunray and Tambor, were all sent to Mustafar for supposed safety. It was however a ruse and Darth Vader was sent to wipe them all out. All fell and the Separatists and Jedi alike were no more.

Whorm Loathsom
Loathsom, who was general for both his homeworld of Kerkodia's forces and also a small regiment of Droids for the CIS, accomplished many victories during the Clone wars, which gave him a name for himself, so when Obi Wan, Anakin and his Padowan led some Clones against him on Christophsis, they naturally knew who they were dealing with.
As the Droids approached the outnumbered Clones, protected under a force shield, Obi-Wan pretended to surrender, but it was a trick, and just as Obi predicted, Whorm fell for it, hook line a sinker and as they 'talked', Anakin and Ahsoka crept away and destroyed the shield generator, allowing the Clones to fight back and with Obi-Wan and Anakin at the helm, they were eventually victorious and Whorm was taken to and tried for his crimes on Coruscant. He remained there for some while under inprisonment, alongside his fellow CIS leaders, such as Poggle and Wat Tambor, and no-one knows what happenned to him after that.

Nute Gunray
Neimoidian Nute was the Viceroy of the 'Trade Federation', who worked up the ranks from minister during the 'Stark Hyperspace war'. He often took orders secretly from the Sith Darth Sidious, but was unaware of the Sith's true identity as Senator Palpatine. On the Sith's first mission of taking control, the Viceroy was ordered to blockade Naboo, in hope of getting the Queen to sign a treaty, allowing his illegal trade actions to become legal, but naturally, she refused and with the Jedi, she put up a good fight.
With another Sith entering the conflict (Darth Maul), Gunray was becoming scared, but as Neimoidian's are natural cowards, he and his aide Rune Haako, didn't dare question or oppose the Sith and so continued their opposing of Naboo with a droid battle. However, they weren't expecting the local Gungans to join in the fight against them or the destruction of their control ship an, nor the 'death' of Maul and as such, they lost, yet again.
Following their loss, the Trade Federation fled and soon went to Sidious's new apprentice; Count Dooku, for help. For his commitment (even though forced upon him), Gunray was awarded a new position in the newly formed CIS, he was to become head of the Separatist council.
Following the inevitable 'Clone Wars', all the Separatist council, including Gunray were moved from their base on Geonosis to the more secretive Mustafar, but this was all a plot by the Sith, as he eventually sent another new apprentice; Darth Vader, to eliminate all that would oppose the plan of Empire, that meant not just the Jedi, but also their own creation, the CIS. Vader went to Mustafar and Nute believed he had come to help, but he was wrong, Vader lit up his Light Sabre and struck all the other Separatists down, ending with Nute. The Trade Federation did go a little while longer, with Sentepeth Findos, another Neimoidian at the helm, but fearing his own life, Findos had no choice, he gave all the Trade Fed over to the newly named Empire and from there the Trade Federation, the CIS and the Republic era itself ended.

Poggle
Archduke Poggle The Lesser of Geonosis controlled many Geonosian colonies and was also a leading member of the Separatist council, plus he held the data for the ultimate weapon; The Death Star.
There was a time when Poggle was a a member of the low society of the winged Geonosians, hence the name 'Lesser', but Darth Sidious came to Poggle's aid in a rebellion and in return Poggle would supply a large portion of the Battle Droids for the Separatist army, all built within massive burning Foundries. Soon after Dooku approached Poggle and explained he was Sidious's Apprentice, before tasking Poggle and San Hill of another task, to rehabilitate a Kaleesh warrior and turn him into a Cyborg. With the new Cyborg Dooku would train him up and he would lead the Droids with a new identity and name, he was General Grievous.
Poggle also proceeded over the planned execution of the Jedi and Padme, but the arena battle didn't go as planned, as the beasts within were killed and befor long, dozens of Jedi and Clone Troopers had arrived. Fearing his life, Poggle fled, but not before giving Dooku the Death Star plans.
During the ensuing Clone Wars, Poggle saw plenty of action, but as the Clone Wars drew to a close, so did Poggle's life, for Sidious's new master; Darth Vader was tasked with one last job before the reign of the Emperor; to kill all the Separatists, loyalists, Jedi and anyone else who stood in the Sith's way, that included Poggle, for whilst discussing matters on Mustafar, Vader cut down all the Separatists in fatal blows with his Light Sabre. Poggle was no warrior and he fell in an instant.
