Vanko
this Imperial Moff was an aging old man who had dedicated his life to the military. He was once a personal friend of Emperor Palpatine. He was one of the two Moffs with territories bordering the Maelstrom. Along with his compatriot Torpin, Vanko submitted falsified budgets and financial reports to the Empire to try and hide the fact that he was losing a great deal of money to the Riders of the Maelstrom. The last reports Vanko sent wer covering up nearly 25% losses. He and Torpin met in secret on the planet Aris, then boarded the Kuari Princess to discuss what their next moves would be. Both believed that the pirate groups were woking in concert with the Alliance to plan a major offensive against their forces. Vanko and Torpin barely escaped from the Princess after it was hijacked by the Riders and rescued by Alliance agents.
