Dur Gejjen

Dur Gejjen was a Corellian elected representative of the Democratic Alliance. He was the son of Nov Gejjen, who was active against the Human League during the First Corellian Insurrection and a friend of Leia Organa Solo. He also had two children of his own and was considered an elder statesman in a young man's body.

Biography
"You got to hand it to Gejjen. He must have had all of this planned."

- Han Solo to Leia Organa Solo

Dur met with Han and Leia in Coronet City, Corellia in order to warn them of Thrackan Sal-Solo's bounty on Han and his family and to persuade Han to take out Sal-Solo. Later he asked Boba Fett to kill Thrackan, offering him 1,000,000 credits, though both Solo and Fett found Dur to be suspicious, Fett viewed as a political carnivore.

Following Sal-Solo's death by Fett, Fett's granddaughter Mirta Gev, and Han Solo, Gejjen assumed control of the Five Worlds as it's Head of State and continued to refuse talks with the Galactic Alliance, which led to the formal start of war between the two opposing factions.

After declaring himself the ruler of the Five Worlds, Gejjen and two other politicians bullied Admiral Wedge Antilles into bringing Han and Leia onto the Thrackan Sal-Solo. It was then that Dur tricked the two into believing that their mission was to meet with the Queen Mother about her involvement in the war. He'd planned to use the Solos to draw Tenel Ka out into the open to an attack. His planned backfired when the Solos, wary of his intentions, discovered the truth and attempted to warn her of the impending danger.

Behind the scenes
Gejjen's first appearance in Tempest was preceded by an introduction that effectively retconned a discrepancy that had arisen between Betrayal and Bloodlines. Fans had become confused over the titles of President and Prime Minister in the Corellian system and whether Thrackan had been in charge of all five worlds or merely Corellia. In Tempest, it is revealed that Gejjen has assumed power and become Five World Prime Minister, reviving one title and abolishing another (President of Five Worlds) that Thrackan had created upon his own accession to power.
