Unidentified admiral (Ord Mantell)

Decades before the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, a corrupt admiral of the Republic Navy sold off the remaining starships of the local fleet stationed at the planet Ord Mantell. The admiral, who sold the ships to a number of wealthy pirates, was never caught by Republic authorities, and those pirates haunted shipping routes in the Bright Jewel sector for decades.

Behind the scenes
The unidentified admiral was first mentioned in the entry for Ord Mantell on the Holonet, a division of the official site for the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic, and the admiral&mdash;whose species and gender were never specified&mdash;was also mentioned in the 2012 reference guide Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia.
