Kueller

First known as Dolph, Kueller was a Jedi in training at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. When his parents on the Outer Rim planet Almania were tortured to death by the Je'her, he fell deeply into the Dark side. Kueller rose up against the Je'her and crushed them with his army, and the help of his apprentice Brakiss, another fallen Jedi, whom he had forced to aid him. After Kueller wiped out the Je'her, he slaughtered tens of thousands of "sympathizers" of the war. He then proceeded with his plan to conquer the New Republic; he saw himself as a great man who would bring peace to the galaxy through his strength, preventing any more genocides or other mass slaughters- he recounciled this view of himself with his own genocides such as the destruction of Pydyr by analogy with the historical Kueller, who was centuries perviously a great general, who conquered the sector Almania was in through methods of then-unprecedented brutality, but then proceeded to reign over an equally unprecedented era of peace and prosperity. Kueller's plan was to use Brakiss' control of the droid factories on Telti and implant remotely controlled bombs in each of the droids, selling them at bragain prices in order to speed their dispersal; he would then carefully use them as a scalpel to manipulate political events, eventually toppling the legitimacy of the New Republic. Simultaneously, he would feed on the deaths caused by his droids to wax puissant in the Dark side, which would enable him to defeat the Skywalkers and become a new Emperor, sovereign in the power of the Force. Furthermore, he purchased all available Imperial military surplus, intending to take advantage of the fear a resurgent Empire would provoke to further destabilize the Republic. He was defeated militarily when a fleet dispatched by Mon Mothma reached Almania's system, and its commander, Wedge Antilles, realized that the Victory-class Star Destroyers were commanded by droids (from Brakiss and Telti, again), and used that aspect against them. Kueller was defeated personally and killed when Luke broke out of Kueller's prison, and Han Solo distracted him with a Ysalamir; at that point, too late to halt the general detonation order for all Telti-manufactured droids, Leia Organa Solo shot him twice with a blaster, killing him. Fortunately, C-3PO and R2-D2 had blocked the relay on Telti, neutralizing Kueller's last gasp of malice.
