Jixtus

Canon Linked from 130 articles

A Grysk male known as "Jixtus" was the coordinator of the Grysk forces who sought the destruction of the Chiss Ascendancy. Like the rest of his warlike species, he led a Grysk fleet from his flagship, the Shatter-class WarMaster FateSpinner. At some point before 18 BBY, Jixtus and the Grysks trained General Yiv the Benevolent and his species, the Nikardun, in the arts of conquest in an attempt to encircle the Chiss Ascendancy, the government of the Chiss species. However, although Yiv conquered the Tower Dimension, the Paataatus Hiveborn, the Paccian Governance, and the Lioaoin Regime, he failed when conquering the Vak Combine, where he was defeated by Chiss Senior Captain Mitth'raw'nuruodo "Thrawn," who became an enemy of Jixtus. Afterward, Jixtus employed the telepathic Agbui species to cause chaos and civil wars, creating a civil war on the Unknown Regions planet Sunrise, which resulted in massive destruction, and failing in the attempt to precipitate a civil war in the Ascendancy.

With the death of Haplif, the coordinator of the Agbui, Jixtus allied himself with Generalirius Nakirre, the leader of the Kilji species' theocratic Kilji Illumine and its battle fleet of the Illumine Kilhorde. While the Kilhorde prevented fleeing Chiss refugees from escaping the Ascendancy, Nakirre and Jixtus traveled aboard the Kilji war cruiser Whetstone across the Chiss Ascendancy, meeting several high-ranking officials such as Clarr'ivl'exow "Rivlex," who obtained Grysk warships in exchange of information. While the families entered a battle against each other thanks to Nakirre and Jixtus' meetings sharing images of the battle between the Dasklo, Xodlak, Erighal and Pommrio families, General Crofyp and Colonel Tildnis perished while fighting Thrawn, who had previously defeated Yiv and Haplif. Thrawn, obtaining data from Tildnis' Kilji picket cruiser Hammer, allied himself with the Paataatus Hiveborn to destroy the Kilhorde, destroying the Kilhorde.

Ultimately, receiving reports from Grysks and Rivlex, Jixtus traveled to Sunrise once more, as Thrawn was present at the planet with a fleet of Chiss warships. There, he was informed of the Kilhorde's destruction, and killed Nakirre, viewing him as useless, and also fought the Chiss fleet with his own fleet, causing slight damage to the Chiss, but being defeated by Thrawn's tactics and alliance with Yiv's previously conquered people. Then, the Paccosh, Garwians, and Vaks, fought Jixtus' fleet, exacting severe casualties before Nakirre's vassals, led by Jixtus' agent, Pathfinder navigator Qilori, fired at the FateSpinner from the Whetstone, disintegrating most of the warship and forcing Jixtus to use a self-destruct mechanism to destroy his fleet before telling Thrawn that his career was over, and that the Grysks would return and kill the Chiss, before his flagship detonated, killing himself.
