Nial Declann was a member of the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars, and continued his service after the rise of the Galactic Empire. His unnatural talent as a TIE pilot revealed his sensitivity to the Force, and he was allowed to study the nature of the dark side. When his training was complete, Palpatine promoted him to the rank of Grand Admiral. He was stationed on Naboo for a time after the Battle of Yavin, but was summoned to the second Death Star along with several other Grand Admirals for the Battle of Endor. Declann was on board the superweapon when it was destroyed. #starwars
