Legend

this Imperial Moff was a short, stout man who was on the fact-track to Moff status, but never served in the military. He commanded no respect from his subordinates. He was one of the two Moffs with territories bordering the Maelstrom. Along with his compatriot Vanko, Torpin 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 he sent were covering up nearly 25% losses. He and Vanko met in secret on the planet Aris, then boarded the Kuari Princess to discuss what their next moves would be. Both believed that the pirates were in league with the Alliance, and were planning to a major offensive against them. Vanko and Torpin barely escaped from the Kuari Princess after it was hijacked by the Riders and rescued by Alliance agents.
