Drikl Lecersen was a Human male member of the Council of Moffs of the Imperial Remnant around 41 ABY. A supporter of Remnant leader and Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon, Lecersen was an old-school Moff who believed strongly in doing one's duty, and always kept himself combat-ready. During the Second Galactic Civil War, Pellaeon, Lecersen, and the other Moffs on the Council discussed an offer proposed by Galactic Alliance Chief of State Darth Caedus for Alliance-Remnant unity in combating the Confederation, a rebellion opposed to the Alliance. After unanimously agreeing to offer warships and soldiers to aid in an Alliance attack on the Confederation world Fondor, the Remnant was granted the systems of Bilbringi and Borleias&mdash;something the Moffs saw as the beginning of a new Empire.

Following Pellaeon's assassination during the battle over Fondor, the Imperial Remnant aligned itself with the Galactic Alliance under Caedus. Accompanied by additional Moffs and the Imperial Elite Guard of stormtroopers, Lecersen participated in the Imperial conquest of the Roche asteroids. Lecersen was present in the Nickel One command center alongside Caedus and the other Moffs when the Jedi Coalition launched a raid on the asteroid, and he narrowly avoided death at the hands of Mandalorian soldiers. After this slaughter, Lecersen became the de facto leader of the Moff Council. He and other Moffs again accompanied Caedus into battle during an attack on a Jedi Coalition base on Shedu Maad in the Hapes Cluster, while aboard the Star Destroyer Anakin Solo. Against Caedus's orders, the Moff authorized the creation and deployment of a nanovirus targeted against Hapan Queen Mother Tenel Ka Djo and her family, a move that ultimately proved fruitless. The battle ended in defeat for the combined Alliance/Remnant forces, and after being given a choice between imprisonment or helping to rebuild the Alliance, Lecersen and the Council opted for the latter. To ensure the Moffs' cooperation, Jagged Fel, son of Imperial starfighter pilot Baron Soontir Fel, was installed as Imperial Head of State&mdash;a move Lecersen agreed to, given Baron Fel's reputation as an Imperial pilot.
