Roan Fel

"Roan Fel never really embraced the war or the idea of a unified galaxy. He went along with it as a political necessity. That's not what the Empire&mdash;what the galaxy&mdash;needs."

- Darth Krayt

Roan Fel was the third Emperor of the Fel dynasty to rule the new Galactic Empire, and a descendant of General Baron Soontir Fel, the famed Imperial starfighter pilot.

Biography
A fully trained Imperial Knight, the master of Antares Draco, and an able military and political leader, Fel kept the Empire on a straight course, following in the footsteps of his grandfather.



In 127 ABY, Roan Fel reluctantly took the Empire to war against the Galactic Alliance, with the support of the new Sith Order. Unlike Darth Krayt and some on the Moff Council, the Emperor did not view the war as the means to achieve a grand ideological agenda. Rather, he saw it as an unfortunate political necessity, the best course of action for the Empire in a troubled Galaxy. Though allied with the Sith, Fel had no desire to see the Jedi exterminated.

Three years later, the war was over. The Alliance fell with the conquest of Coruscant, and three days later, the Massacre at Ossus all-but wiped out New Jedi Order, which happened against Fel's orders. It was only as the war was winding down that he realized that the Empire had been manipulated into the war by the new Sith Order and their ally on the Moff Council, Nyna Calixte. However, Fel seems to have realized that Darth Krayt and Grand Admiral Morlish Veed were plotting betrayal, so he arranged for a double to appear in his place at the meeting at which they planned to assassinate him and take power.

Thus, although the Moffs witnessed Krayt kill the one who sat on the throne when he seized control of the Empire, Roan Fel remained free to plan his response. However, his daughter and heir, Princess Marasiah Fel, was soon to be caught up in the Sith plot. Darth Talon, one of Krayt's Hands, had been sent after the Princess in the hope that she could chase her into the arms of her father, her true quarry.

Around 137 ABY, Fel returned to Bastion. Over the years, loyalist forces had gathered there, awaiting the return of their Emperor. With Antares Draco at his side, Fel took control of the planet, knowing that Krayt would be wary to amass a frontal assault on the heavily fortified planet.

Later, he decided to form a desperate alliance with the Galactic Alliance Core Forces, which the Sith attempted to sabotage with the help of Moff Nyna Calixte. The sabotage worked and Roan Fels forces continued to stand alone. Later, Darth Kruhl was dispatched to Bastion to kill Fel. Kruhl failed in his mission and was killed by Fel personally. He later executed the crew of the Star Destroyer Kruhl had used to sneak onto Bastion as a warning to Darth Krayt that Fels faction of the Empire would not be easliy conquered.
