Legend

this man was one of Lord Hoth's Generals during the early struggles of the Battle of Ruusan. Despite overwhelming odds, Lord Charny and his men won several battles. Prior to Ruusan, Charny barely survived a breif affair with Githany, who had turned to the Dark Side of the Force. Only the timely intervention of Valenthyne Farfalla saved Charny's life. It was Lord Charny who brought the youth known as Tomcat into battle, believing that Torr Snapit had bequeathed his lightsaber to the boy. Little did Charny know that Tomcat had stolen the weapon and allowed Snapit to die. Nevertheless, they were forced into battle shortly afterward, but they met a force of Sith warriors which was not led by a single Dark Lord. Charny grew worried about this, seeing a new change in tactics from the Sith. After being bombed and attacked, Charny's forces would have been eliminated if Farfalla hadn't arrived. However, Githany had survived the battle, and faced Charny with her lightwhip. She badly wounded Charny, and would have taken his life if Tomcat hadn't intervened. Unfortunately for Charny, Tomcat had already turned to the Dark Side of the Force, and the youth took Charny's own lightsaber and decapitated him.
