Gaius Volkus

Gaius Volkus was a Field Marshall of the Killistian Republic during the Super Galactic War. He soon earned a reputation among his enemies as 'The Nexu of the Republic' and 'The New Thrawn' for his ruthless and efficient tactics during the war. He masterminded several offensives against the Republic's enemies, nearly all of which gained the Republic several more star systems. He was involved in a plot to assassinate Gregor Killist in 244 ABY. However, this failed and Volkus was forced to commit suicide. This caused great sadness among residents of the Republic who did not like Killist and the Republic's enemies. Many beings in the Galaxy believed that he should have replaced Killist and put an end to the fighting.
