A Count of Serenno was a title bestowed upon the heads of the Serenno Great Houses.^[3] More specifically, the liege lord of all the Counts was referred to as the Count of Serenno.^[4] The Counts of Serenno were properly addressed as "Your Grace" or "Your Highness."^[5] The traditional outfit of the Counts of Serenno included an elegant dark cape that enlarged the wearer's silhouette to intimidating effect.^[5]

HistoryEdit

Making up the leadership of the planet Serenno, the Counts were believed to been among the wealthiest and most influential beings in the galaxy. In the wake of the Ruusan Reformations, the six most influential Counts welcomed Supreme Chancellor Tarsus Valorum to their world, although they did not take lightly to outsider influence in their world's affairs. During the Chancellor's arrival at House Nalju's retreat, a group of rebels attacked the Chancellor in an attempted assassination. Thwarted by Jedi Knight Johun Othone, the radicals were purged by the Counts as an attack on their guest was considered an attack on the Counts themselves.^[2]

During the Republic's Separatist Crisis, Adan Dooku was too young to take up the title of Count for House Dooku and was ousted by his uncle, Jedi Master Dooku. Indeed, Dooku had fallen to the dark side of the Force and abandoned the Jedi Order and took up leadership of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.^[1] Leading the Confederacy in to open conflict in what would be known as the Clone Wars, Dooku's reign of terror would bring the iron fist of the Galactic Empire down on Serenno at the end of the war. Led by Darth Vader, the Cleansing of Serenno saw the execution of the Count's and their replacement by more compliant Imperial sympathizers.^[6]
