The son of Rymar Quinn , Malavai was born on Dromund Kaas around 3680 BBY and became an officer of the Sith Empire during the Great Galactic War . During the Battle of Druckenwell in 3653 BBY lieutenant Quinn was a commanding officer assigned to Moff Broysc . Broysc made a critical oversight that nearly resulted in defeat , but Quinn chose to disobey the Moff ' s direct order and single - handedly returned the advantage to the Empire , resulting in a Republic defeat . However , Broysc was furious at the insubordination from Quinn , who had been tracking a Republic Strategic Information Service agent Voloren and had the man cornered when Broysc recalled Quinn to serve in the battle . The Moff took credit for Quinn ' s saving of the fleet , but chose to court - martial his subordinate . Fortunately for Quinn , the Sith Lord Darth Baras assigned Quinn to Balmorra , leaving Broysc to fume and block every transfer or promotion Quinn received during his time on the planet . Now part of Baras ' massive intelligence network , Quinn remained posted on Balmorra for the next ten years . In 3643 BBY Quinn was instructed by Baras ' to assist his new Sith apprentice , who was on Balmorra with a mission to neutralize Baras ' spy Commander Rylon . Rylon was embedded amongst the Balmorran resistance and Jedi Master Nomen Karr had sent an investigator to expose him . Malavai Quinn directed the apprentice in covering Rylon ' s tracks . The most urgent was recovering data from a satellite control tower in the Markaran Plains that contained evidence of Rylon ' s involvement in sabotage of Balmorran defenses prior to imperial invasion . The next target was Rylon ' s son Durmat , who knew of his father ' s true allegiance and was waiting to be interrogated by the Jedi investigator . The Sith apprentice eliminated Durmat in his cell before the Jedi arrived . The Sith then went to confront Rylon at the Balmorran Arms Factory and killed him , however Quinn alerted the apprentice that the investigator sent by Nomen Karr was a Jedi Knight , who had recorded the conversation between the Sith and Rylon and was headed for the Sobrik spaceport . While the apprentice pursued the Jedi Mashallon , Quinn had intercepted her off - world transmissions , thereby keeping the Jedi in the dark . Quinn then returned to his office in Sobrik , where Baras ' apprentice reported to the Sith Lord on a private call . The Sith gave credit to Quinn for his assistance in the mission , so Baras promoted him to captain and awarded him a posting of his choosing . Quinn asked the Sith to allow him to travel and serve alongside them , and his request was granted . However , Quinn also remained a spy for Darth Baras and was instructed to keep an eye for his new apprentice . Travels with Baras ' apprentice . Quinn joined Baras ' apprentice on their Fury - class Imperial interceptor , where he joined the apprentice ' s travelling companion Vette . Together they joined the Sith on the Hunt for Jaesa Willsaam , the apprentice of Jedi Master Nomen Karr , chasing her trail on Tatooine and Alderaan before confronting her on Hutta , where the Sith tempted Jaesa to join their side as an apprentice . Baras then enacted his Plan Zero , sending his apprentice to eliminate members of Republic War Trust on Taris and Jedi Knight Xerender on Hoth . After Baras maneuvered his apprentice to kill his master Darth Vengean , he ascended to the Dark Council and , growing concerned about his apprentice ' s growing power , Baras set a trap for them on Quesh . However , the apprentice was rescue by the Emperor ' s Hand and given the title of the Emperor ' s Wrath . Now tasked with undermining Baras ' power base , the new Emperor ' s Wrath stopped Baras ' sister Darth Ekkage from escaping Belsavis prison and freed the Emperor ' s Voice from being trapped in the Dark Heart on Voss . Under orders from Baras , Quinn then moved to dispose of the Emperor ' s Wrath , who was on the way to Corellia to stop the assassination of Baras ' rival on the Dark Council Darth Vowrawn . Quinn claimed that Baras has instituted martial law on Corellia preventing any authorized ship from landing , and that the Wrath ' s crew needed to steal a special transponder in order to bypass the Imperial blockade . The Sith traveled to the transponder station at the coordinates Quinn provided , where Captain revealed that there was no martial law and the entire thing was a ruse . Quinn then apologized to the Sith , whom he grew to respect , explaining that he owed Darth Baras too much and that his allegiance to him came first . He unveiled two assault droids that were programmed with combat data Quinn had gathered on the Wrath , but his overconfidence proved to be his downfall . The Wrath destroyed the droids and Force - choked Quinn for his betrayal but chose to spare him whereas Baras would not . Despite his betrayal and after begging forgiveness , Quinn was allowed to remain at the new Wrath ' s side , with a chance to earn back their trust . The Wrath and their crew traveled to Corellia , where Quinn and the rest of the Sith ' s companions were tasked to safeguard Darth Vowrawn back on the Empire ' s Wrath ' s Fury - class Imperial interceptor . When Sith Lord Draahg attempted to assassinate Vowrawn on the ship , the crew moved Vowrawn to a safe house in Coronet City , and the Dark Council or later mentioned that Quinn fought vigilantly and should be praised for his deeds . The Captain stated that he did everything in hopes for the Wrath to forgive his betrayal . Foiling Baras ' plans on Corellia , his former apprentice confronted him in the Dark Council Chambers of the Korriban Academy and killed him , after which Darth Marr fully acknowledged their authority as the Emperor ' s Wrath . During his travels with the Sith , Quinn performed maintenance on the ship and eventually upgraded the " Fury " ' s hyperdrive . With the Sith ' s consent , Quinn was promoted to Captain 2nd Rank . Finally , Quinn became aware of Imperial operations suffering because of his former commander Moff Broysc and decided to intervene . This included tracking down the Republic Strategic Information Service agent Voloren whom Broysc grossly underestimated and saving Major Ovech and the majority of his men from a death trap in a supposedly secret warehouse on Cato Neimoidia , sprung through Broysc ' s general incompetence . Eventually , Quinn and the Sith got into holoconference with Broysc , determining that he was suffering from severe dementia . Broysc had dubbed Quinn " Admiral Malcontent " and blamed him for defeats that occurred years before his birth . With Sith ' s permission , Quinn contacted Imperial High Command in hopes they would remove Broysc , but none had the courage to stand up to him . Since Broysc ' s political and military connections would not allow him to be removed through the proper channels , Quinn decided to take matters into his own hands and abducted Broysc from a pleasure barge where he had been holed up while a battle was ongoing , bringing him to the Sith ' s ship . Clearly mad , Broysc ordered the Sith to surrender the vessel and its crew to his command and even kill themselves . His patience stretched to breaking point , Quinn requested the Sith ' s permission to execute the Moff , which was granted to him . After disposing of thebody , Quinn learned from from universal chatter that the Imperials agreed to be better off without Broysc . Quinn was pleased with his work , though regretted having not acting earlier . After the Eternal Empire conquest . Quinn remained at the side of the Emperor ' s Wrath for over five years , until the Sith went missing early on in the Eternal Empire conquest of 3637 BBY . The Sith ' s crew aboard the " Fury " mourned his absence and soon disbanded . Feeling that without the Wrath the Empire was doomed to fall , Quinn spend months searching for the Sith , even as the Dark Council fell to the Eternal Empire and Darth Acina proclaimed herself the new Empress . Finally , Quinn was ordered by the Sith Minister of Logistics Gelmid Lorman to call off the search . Quinn refused and was thrown into Imperial prison for his defiance . He remained imprisoned for years until Lorman was exposed for conspiring against Acina during an official visit on Dromund Kaas by the Alliance Commander . Shortly afterwards , Acina pardoned Quinn , promoted him to the rank of Major and made him her new advisor . The Eternal Empire was overthrown by the Alliance formed by Lana Beniko , which absorbed its military strangth along with the Eternal Fleet , presenting itself as a new power on the galactic scale . When the Empire received an anonymous intel regarding an immensely powerful superweapon on a recently rediscovered world of Iokath in 3632 BBY , Acina send a detachment of Imperial forces to secure the weapon , where they clashed with both the Republic forces and the Eternal Alliance ' s Eternal Fleet . Acina send Major Quinn as an ambassador to the Alliance Commander , with the orders to sabotage the meeting and escape should the Alliance turn against Empire . Taken captive by Beniko who treated him as a possible assassin Quinn presented himself to the Alliance Commander along with Republic Captain Elara Dorne and arranged a formal holocall with the Empress , who asked the Commander to side with the Empire against the Republic forces led by Supreme Commander Jace Malcom . Personality and traits . Extremely loyal to the Empire , Quinn supported those who sought to further its interest , but did not tolerate those who were either unloyal or irrational in duty . His act of defiance against Moff Broysc saved the Empire at Druckenwell , but stalled Quinn ' s career for the next ten years . He was not afraid to express earned admiration for his superiors such as Darth Baras , but neither did he hesitate to speak his mind in their presence . Valuing competence alongside loyalty , Quinn saw personal enemies of Darth Baras as enemies of the Empire until his betrayal of Baras ' apprentice went sour , after which he fully dedicated himself to the new cause .
