Amise Griff

Amise Griff (&mdash;0 BBY) was an Imperial admiral charged with the development and construction of the Executor-class Star Dreadnought.

Prior to his work on Fondor, Griff served under Imperial Governor Nox Vellam in the Bright Jewel system. Griff was earmarked for promotion to Governor himself when Vellam ascended to the level of Grand Moff, but he was reassigned in a fleet reorganization following the Battle of Yavin.

After Yavin, the overeager Griff attempted to catch the Rebels as they fled, and he brought his fleet out of hyperspace too close to Darth Vader's flagship, the Executor, causing a collision. Griff was killed and the ships that collided with the Executor were destroyed by the impact; the Executor suffered no major damage, but the Rebels escaped in the resulting confusion.
