Vedij Zelin

"I hate the Sith as much as you, but they were right about one thing. The Republic is getting too corrupt."

- Admiral Vedij Zelin

Vedij Zelin was a Human admiral in the Republic Navy as of 17,568 BBY. Zelin was placed in command of the development of technology for the Navy, such as starfighters. However, when the Early Sith War began, he became disillusioned with the Republic and broke off, forming his own government. He fought both the Republic and the Holy Sith Empire during the war, but was ultimately killed the year before the war ended.
