Gastos Niovi

Niovi was a Colonel of the Galactic Empire, serving under Admiral Gaen Drommel aboard the Executor-class Star Dreadnought Guardian. When Drommel tried to fight to the death of himself and his crew rather than surrender to the New Republic, Niovi killed him and assumed the title of acting commander of the Guardian. By the authority of his position, Niovi surrendered the Guardian to the Republic.
