Lyon Olof

Lyon Olof was a Human male member of the Imperial Inquisitorius.

Biography
In his early life, Lyon Olof was a member of Republic Intelligence, serving as an agent during the Clone Wars. Following the end of the war and the establishment of the Galactic Empire, Olof was eventually recognised for his Force-sensitivity and was recruited into the Imperial Inquisitorius, an organisation that was dedicated to wiping out any vestiges of the Jedi Order.

At some point during his career as an Inquisitor, Olof was assigned to an Imperial prison complex on the backwater Outer Rim planet of Dathomir. Olof examined several reports about a number of attempted incursions on the facility by indigenous marauders. Based on various aspects of the reports, such as the descriptions of the methods used by the invaders, Olof was eventually able to come to the conclusion that the marauders were a faction of native Force-sensitive people known as Nightsisters, a splinter group of the Witches of Dathomir. Though Olof possessed only a limited amount of knowledge about the group, the Inquisior regarded the Nightsisters as a very dangerous threat to both the prison and, potentially, the Galactic Empire. Thus, Olof took drastic action and personally assumed control of the entire prison facility.

After a Nightsister encampment was located by Imperial scouts in the wastes of Dathomir, Inquisitor Olof proceeded with a squadron of stormtroopers, hoping to personally and swiftly wipe them out. However, due to him not being fully aware of their capabilities and numbers, Olof underestimated the Nightsisters, who managed to overwhelm most of his task force. Olof was forced to retreat from the encampment after being critically injured during a skirmish and was rushed back to the Imperial prison’s medical clinic.

After he had recovered, Inquisitor Olof immediately sensed that the medical supervisor who had overseen his recovery, Allura Drayneen, was Force-sensitive. Due to this, Olof grew progressively suspicious of her, eventually to the point where the Inquisitor began to connect her to the Nightsisters he had encountered in the wastes of Dathomir. After examining Allura’s personal file, Olof noticed that she had been stationed at the prison not long before the Nightsister raids had initially begun. Inquisitor Olof eventually came to believe that Allura Drayneen was an agent sent in by the Nightsisters to sabotage the Imperial prison from within. Olof immediately had Allura arrested and arranged to interrogate her personally.

During the interrogation, Olof was able to sense Allura’s growing nervousness under his constant scrutiny. He eventually accused her of being a Nightsister spy, though Allura denied his accusation. Olof grew frustrated by her denial and decided to employ a more potent method in order to fully confirm Allura’s true identity and motives. He used his abilities with the dark side of the Force to invade Allura’s mind, hoping to forcefully pry the truth from her by examining her own memories. During the process, Olof looked deep inside of Allura’s mind, pinpointing all her past memories. However, based on her memories, the Inquisitor was eventually able to verify that Allura was not a Nightsister agent.

Though he was disappointed, Olof realised that Allura had the potential to become a member of the Inquisitorius due to her Force-sensitivity. He regarded her as an individual who could be easily moulded into a potentially effective asset of the Galactic Empire. Thus, hoping to gain favour with his superiors by recruiting a prospective new member, Olof attempted to persuade Allura to join the Inquisitorius. In response to her initial refusal, Olof revealed that he knew about her role as a torturer under the orders of Garis Lorvan. Olof used this information in an attempt to sway her into believing that joining the Inquisitorius would have been more rewarding than her life on Dathomir. Ultimately, Olof was successful in his attempt to convince her, and Allura Drayneen agreed to join the Inquisitorius.
