Biography
Edit
- "Moff Seerdon is notoriously...unforgiving."
- ―Kasan Moor
In the time of the Galactic Republic, the Human male Kohl Seerdon was a military officer from Chandrila. During the Clone Wars, he replaced Hiram Drayson as commander of Chandrila's defense forces.
When Emperor Palpatine declared his Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, Seerdon was made Grand Moff of Sector 3 and assumed the role of commander of the 3rd Sector Army.[2] Seerdon later arranged for his son, Maximillian, to have a ranking position in the Imperial Security Bureau.[3]
During the Galactic Civil War, Seerdon held control over the gas giant Taloraan and its tibanna gas mines. He also had a Weapons Research Facility on the planet Fest. During the war, Seerdon started consolidated forces to take over bacta supplies on Thyferra. The Rebel Alliance watched his moves closely. He was one of the most dangerous enemies of the Rebel Alliance flight group Rogue Squadron months after the Battle of Yavin.[1]
After Rogue Squadron attacked the snow planet Fest and destroyed his research facility, Seerdon attacked and blockaded a city on Chandrila, home planet of Mon Mothma and Seerdon himself. Rogue Squadron halted his attack, forcing Seerdon, who was overseeing the attack, to flee in a Lambda-class shuttle. While Rogue Squadron launched a retaliatory raid on a Capacitor, Seerdon invaded Thyferra and took control of the planet's bacta factories. Rogue Squadron counter-attacked, and outmaneuvered by the elite Rebel squadron, Seerdon engaged Rogue Leader Luke Skywalker in his heavily modified Sentinel-class landing craft. After a harrowing dogfight, Commander Luke Skywalker defeated him. The shuttle exploded, instantly killing the Imperial Moff, and resulted in a Rebel victory.[1]
Personality & traitsEdit
- "Rebel scum, this is Moff Seerdon. Your resistance is useless, as you can see. I have blockaded the city, and Chandrila is now mine. You will surrender, or I will shoot you all down."
- ―Seerdon to Rogue Squadron during the Blockade of Chandrila
Moff Seerdon was unforgiving to those who failed him, and considered it the way of the universe that the weak should give away to the strong.[1] He was also greedy.[4]
