Vylanthar

Vylanthar was a human male captain in the Imperial Survey Corps. Hailing from Coruscant, he was a fifth generation scout, his ancestors having served in the Republic Exploration Corps.

Early life
He was born at an unknown date before the Clone Wars to two scouts of the Galactic Republic exploration service. Vylanthar lived through the conflict unharmed, and shortly after the founding of the Galactic Empire, enrolled in the Imperial City Naval College. He graduated as a lieutenant.

Imperial service
Vylanthar was eventually promoted to the rank of captain, and was assigned to a scout vessel. His second in command was a lieutenant named Himron. They were responsible for finding several Rebel Navy shipyards in the Outer Rim Territories, and defeated the Xu pirates around the Battle of Hoth. One member of the Admiralty praised Vylanthar's work.

By the time of the Battle of Endor, him and his crew were in the Outer Rim. Upon hearing of Emperor Palpatine's and Darth Vader's deaths over Endor, Vylanthar wished to continue to serve the Empire, while Himron and a third of the crew wished to defect to the Alliance to Restore the Republic. That resulted in a firefight throughout their vessel, only being solved when the Imperial Navy picked up their distress signal and sent in Imperial Marines. Vylanthar was wounded, but personally killed Himron.

Later life
He retired from the Survey Corps shortly after Coruscant fell to the New Republic. For a bit, he worked in Naval Command as an assistant. Vylanthar permanently retired from Imperial service by the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. He was last reported to be on the planet of Mugaar.

Personality and Traits
Vylanthar was mentioned to be a good scout and officer, caring for his crew. However, his loyalty to the Empire surpassed that care. He lost hope for it after Thrawn's death.
