Sedriss QL

Sedriss QL, born Qaga Lok, was a Human Dark Side Adept and Military Executor of the Galactic Empire in 10 ABY. As a Force-sensitive youth, Qaga Lok had found work as a mercenary, and at some stage he killed several Imperial officers. Lok was arrested and sentenced to death for the crime, but was relieved by members of the Imperial Inquisitorius, who brought him before Galactic Emperor Palpatine himself. Palpatine was able to convince Lok to swear fealty to him, and so the Emperor began training the mercenary in the ways of the Force. To honor his new Master, Lok took the old Sith word "Sedriss" and made it his new name, keeping only the initials of his old one.

When Palpatine died at the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, the disparate elements of the Galactic Empire turned on one another. Sedriss, however, and many Dark Side Adepts like him, retreated to the Deep Core world of Byss, to await Palpatine's return in a new clone body. Sure enough, the Emperor was reborn, and to reward Sedriss' loyalty, he made his apprentice Executor of the Imperial Military, leader of the Dark Side Elite, and arbiter of Operation Shadow Hand, a series of strikes against strategic non-Imperial worlds.

Palpatine died yet again at the Battle of Pinnacle Base in 10 ABY, but in his absence, Sedriss remained confident that Palpatine would return once more. The Executor eliminated several dark side adepts who attempted to seize power in Palpatine's absence, and eventually, Sedriss' faith was rewarded when the Emperor was reborn in yet another clone body. Palpatine was pleased with the Executor's fidelity, and he tasked Sedriss with the capture of the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker. While attempting to capture Skywalker on the planet Ossus, Sedriss was killed by the ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar, who the Executor in turn managed to kill as his final act.
