Valco Pandion

Grand Moff Valco Pandion was a human male slaver and a high-ranking official in the Galactic Empire by the time of the Battle of Endor. He proclaimed himself as Grand Moff after the death of Emperor Palpatine and his apprentice Darth Vader. He was a member of the Imperial Future Council that met on Akiva. As a Moff, he owned a palace on Malastare. While he was away, it was destroyed by Blade Squadron.

Akiva
Months after the pivotal battle at Endor, as one of the highest ranking officials left in the Empire, Pandion was invited to a secret summit on Akiva by Admiral Rae Sloane. The goal of the summit was to determine the fate of the Empire by a council known as the Imperial Future Council. Pandion felt that a big show of strength is what the Empire needed to regain its place in the galaxy, often telling the other members of the council that they must bring their fleet to war, but was overruled by Admiral Rae Sloane on many occasions. The two grew wary of each other and often argued over who should make the important decisions. The summit's attendees were unable to come to a decision before captured New Republic pilot Wedge Antilles escaped their custody and sent a summons to war to the New Republic. During the Rebellion on Akiva, their escape yacht was damaged and crashed aboard the Vigilance. Sloane quickly boarded another shuttle and made her escape, but Pandion snuck aboard and attempted to subdue the admiral, presuming to take her place at the head of the fleet. When he confronted her, Sloane shifted the control stick of the shuttle and caused Pandion to fall over. She then wrestled his blaster pistol from him, shooting him, and ejecting him from the cockpit. The shuttle then blew up after Sloane made her escape in a pod, killing Pandion.

Personality and traits
Pandion was a very calm man, speaking with clarity during moments of crisis. He often found humor in the events around them, but limited his emotions to smirking, sneering, and the occasional outburst of anger. He shared many ideals with the Galactic Empire as it was before the Battle of Endor, valuing strength above all else, calling adversaries weak or cowardly. There was one solution to every problem, and that was brute force. When he disagreed with Rae Sloane, it was because he was calling for more aggressive actions than she. He was very self-centered, paying little attention to those below him in the ranks, dismissing their concerns and ignoring their opinions.
