Navik the Red

Navik the Red was a Rodian dictator who used rivalries between clans to turn his enemies against each other so he could seize power. He ordered the extermination of the Tetsus, but did not know that the most dangerous of the Tetsus was cryogenically frozen on Zurek at the time. In 5 ABY, the remaining Tetsus, along with several other clans, rose up against Navik at the instigation of Xeno Squad. Navik won a duel with his archrival and Xeno Squad's leader, Dort Tetsu, but was killed anyway when Dort triggered a thermal detonator right under Navik's face when he leaned down to gloat. Dort, Navik and many other Rodians, most belonging to Navik's Chattza clan, were vaporized in the ensuing explosion.
