The Grand Marshal of the Galactic Empire was born as Dzon Sanyon in 21 BBY on Byss. His parents later moved to Anchorhead, Tatooine. There, he met the Lars/Skywalker family, and was a childhood friend of Luke Skywalker. His parents, after moving from Byss, were now working as mushroom farmers, lower than the moisture farmers the Lars family were.

Dzhon was very discontented with this, and decided to take up hunting womp rats at the age of 16. He was often seen arguing with shopkeepers on the quality of his furs. He eventually managed to get a T-16 Skyhopper, which helped him move around and near Anchorhead, and help him continue on his hunts.

Shortly after, Luke and Biggs would also acquire their own, and this is where the tragic turning point of his life occurs. Luke, Biggs and Dzhon were attempting to navigate Beggar's Canyon, and the three were arguing the best way to do so. Eventually, Dzhon decided to go along with Luke's suggestion. However, a fatal engine error caused his skyhopper to crash.

Luke noticed this, and ran off to get help. However, in his injured state, Dzhon thought that Luke was gloating as he ran of cowardily, and his last thought before passing out was revenge. He was discovered by an Imperial medteam, and woke up in an Imperial hospital. Grateful for their aid, Dzhon enlisted in the Academy after he recovered.

When he was asked for his name, he replied: "Aden'la Darasuum", which in Mando'a, translates into revenge and fury, what he intended to bring upon Luke. </td> </tr>

He became Stormtrooper TS-664, and was a Captain in the Army by 0BBY. In the confusion that followed the Battle of Yavin, he was promoted to Colonel in a year's time. Aden'la was transferred to the Imperial Navy, being made a Commander, and then a Captain.

He was soon commanded a squadron of Star destroyers around Dantooine. In his battles at the time, he invented a new strategy involving the large use of frigates. He was called for service during the Battle of Endor, and his squad became active participants in the epic battle.

After the death of the Emperor, the Empire was once more thrown into confusion, and Aden'la gathered a small fleet, wiping aside all opposition (excluding Ysanne Isard), thereafter declaring himself first Warlord, then Grand Marshal. He would loot the Emperor's throne room, and find, among other artifacts, a Sith Great Holocron and a large shard of the Kaiburr Crystal. Thus began his descent to the Dark Side.

The Remnant Threat

He then discovered plans for the First Death Star, and began to construct one near Byss, where such activity would not be noticed. He later moved it in 7 ABY to orbit Yavin 13 in an insidious plot to destroy the New Republic. In the event that this did not work, he sent his fleet to Iego, where it would remain safe - he thought the Death Star III could hold its own.

Yavin 13 was destroyed in a test of the turbolaser's effectiveness. When a certain Rebel spy brought with him an invasion force, he ordered a land-invasion of Yavin 4, and promised to head it himself. In the climatic duel involving Leia Organa and Han Solo, he was presumed to be killed. However, this was discovered to be a double.

Wrath of the Marshal

A mere half of a year later, he returned, and attempted - with assistance from two mysterious Dark Jedi he had recruited - to steal Darth Andeddu's skeleton in a vain attempt to ressurect the Sith. While the theft failed, it served as a warning that the Grand Marshal was back - and out for revenge. He then lured Luke -and several of his companions- back to Anchorhead, and to Beggar's canyon.

There, he revealed his identity to Luke, and engaged him in an airspeeder chase down Beggar's Canyon to lure him away from his fleet attacking and overruning Anchorhead, and carrying out the assasination of High Commander Binks. In a climatic lightsaber duel, he grievously injured Luke, but left him alive.

Though Luke did escape, he could not defend against the vengeful Marshal's fleet attacking the Third Death Star, Yavin 4, and Hoth. In one fell swoop, the Hope Beacon (the New Republic's name for the captured battlestation) had been destroyed, thanks to a proton torpedo in a certain thermal exhaust port, the temple at Yavin had fallen prey to arson once more, and half of Echo Base had to be evacuated. </td> </tr>
