Morlish Veed

"Morlish. You've been stabbed in the back by a Sith and you're surprised? Bide your time. Watch your tongue. The future is not yet written&mdash;you may yet become Emperor."

- Moff Nyna Calixte

Morlish Veed was a Moff and one of the foremost leaders of the new Galactic Empire around 130 ABY. He was regarded as a military genius and an even more astute politician, being the only person to hold the rank of Grand Admiral while also serving as the head member of the Moff Council. As such, he was second in rank only to Emperor Roan Fel, and harboured barely-hidden ambitions toward replacing Fel on the Imperial throne.



He was also a lover of Moff Nyna Calixte, the head of Imperial Intelligence, and when the Sith approached her with an offer to cooperate in conquering the Galactic Alliance, he quickly became involved in their plans. Like Darth Krayt, Veed believed that the Galaxy needed to be united under the leadership of a single strong ruler&mdash;and he believed that he should be that man.

After serving as a commander in the Sith-Imperial War, Veed reported the final victory over the Jedi to the Emperor and the Moffs in the throne room on recently-conquered Coruscant&mdash;which served as the signal for Darth Krayt and his Sith to attack the guard detail of Imperial Knights and slay the Emperor.

For a moment, Veed believed that he was about to become the first ruler of a united Galaxy in more than a century&mdash;only to watch as Darth Krayt settled down casually in the throne, and proclaimed himself the new ruler of the Empire. The Sith Lord invited Veed, as the senior member of the Imperial hierarchy, to be the first to swear loyalty, and the Grand Admiral, inwardly reluctant, complied. Despite the fact that his plan to become Emperor had temporarily failed, Moff Calixte quickly reminded him that he could still sit upon the Imperial throne in the future.

Veed appears to have been unaware that the real Roan Fel had survived the assassination attempt, and that the man slain by Krayt had been merely his double.
