Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
Ved Kennede served as a Royal Guard to Emperor Palpatine. Palpatine considered him one of his most loyal followers and, as a result, entrusted him with the position of Master Instructor at the Imperial Royal Guard facility on Yinchorr. Ved Kennede was one of Palpatine's most trusted guards and advisors. He was also a Councilor in the Council but did not preform a normal Councilor's duties.
Ved Kennede trained Kir Kanos and Carnor Jax amongst other candidates, and was one of the last Guardsmen killed by Jax's stormtroopers on Yinchorr following the death of Emperor Palpatine's last clone. However, his son Tav remained loyal to Kanos, after the former Royal Guard brought news of his father's death. Kennede's son was, by that time, aiding the New Republic, having seen that the Empire his father loved no longer existed.
