Jovan (Lieutenant)

Jovan was a male human who came to serve in the military forces of the Galactic Empire. He and Kallus arrived on the planet of Coruscant and attended the Imperial Academy at the same time. The two men formed a bond of friendship, with Jovan acting as an informal mentor to Kallus. After graduating from the Academy, Jovan became a full-fledged member of the Galactic Empire. At some point, he was stationed on Garel, where he started playing the Imperial system to his advantage, securing riches for himself. In the mean time, Kallus had joined the Imperial Security Bureau, whose members were tasked with rooting out dissidents.

After Jovan, now a lieutenant, was transferred to the Academy of Lothal, his former comrade Kallus was ordered to bring him into custody. Jovan somehow learned of Kallus' orders, and he managed to escape the Academy despite the intervention of Commandant Cumberlayne Aresko's military personnel. Having stolen a TIE Fighter from the Academy's hangar, the lieutenant fled to the Lothal settlement of Dinar. Kallus, however, successfully tracked down his former friend, and the two engaged in a duel down an alleyway. Jovan ran away once again, but Kallus went after him, intent on bringing him to face justice. What started as a chase through the streets of Dinar ended up as a flying pursuit as Jovan and Kallus each piloted a TIE Fighter over the green plains of Lothal. Eventually, Jovan was taken down, tricked by a maneuver he had taught to Kallus when they were still friends. The rebellious lieutenant asked for Kallus' mercy, but the agent of the Imperial Security Bureau refused to let him go. Jovan was taken away to be imprisoned.
