Drayson, Hiram
this New Republic Admiral was in charge of the Republic's mission to find the Katana fleet. He used to be in charge of the planetary defenses on his home planet, Chandrila, where he met Mon Mothma. During the Clone Wars, Drayson was removed from his position by the passage of Emergency Amendment 121b, also known as the Reflex Amendment, and replaced by Kohl Seerdon. Years later, Mon Mothman asked him to assist with defenses when the Alliance was formed, and then asked him to stay on with the New Republic as Admiral of Coruscant's capital ship fleet. Following the death of Thrawn, Drayson was placed in charge of Alpha Blue, and was one of the New Republic's highest-ranking military officials during the Great Purge. He was known in military circles as the Old Ghost of Coruscant. As the New Republic's government firmed up in the wake of the negotiation of peace with the Imperial remnants, Drayson decided it was time to retire. He married his long-time love, Joi Eicroth, but the marriage didn't last and they soon separated.
