Edouard Fenel Edouard Fenel was a Human male Imperial admiral who was loyal to Roan Fel ' s Empire - in - exile during the Second Imperial Civil War . Fenel was placed in command of the Bastion Second Fleet . History . The Human male Edouard Fenel served the Fel Empire during the Sith – Imperial War . He commanded the starship " Resolute " during the Battle of Caamas , where he was responsible for , in Gar Stazi ' s words , " picking off cruisers too heavily damaged to put up a fair fight . " When the Sith seized control of the Empire , Fenel ultimately decided to support Emperor Fel . He was commander of the Bastion Second Fleet when the Galactic Alliance Remnant and Empire - in - exile agreed to work together against the Sith . When the first joint operation was decided on , Fel chose Fenel to lead the forces loyal to his empire in the battle alongside Stazi . Stazi suspected that Fel assigned Fenel to test him and the Remnant . During the Battle of Ralltiir , Fenel and Stazi pitted their fleets against the Sith ' s Coruscant Third Fleet . There were two objectives to this battle : capture the Sith fleet and force the Sith to extend their forces thinner . During the battle , Fenel told Admiral Kelsan to surrender his fleet or be destroyed , and even encouraged mutiny if the ship ' s officers refused to do so . Kelsan agreed to surrender . But the plan fell apart when Vaclen Tor , captain of the " Steadfast " , refused to do so and called on the rest of the Third Fleet to self - destruct their ships and escape . Fenel ordered all Imperial ships , including the surrendering Imperial fleet , to destroy the " Steadfast " ; however this encouraged Kelsan to order his fleet to self - destruct instead of surrender . Fenel ordered his forces to destroy the escape pods and destroy the remaining ship , but Stazi had had enough of Fenel ' s ruthless tactics . Stazi placed his fleet between Fenel and Kelsan ' s fleets and ordered his fleet to obliterate Fenel ' s forces if any of them shot at their forces . Stazi allowed Kelsan ' s crews to evacuate their ships and detonate them . However , the " Steadfast " had been damaged by Fenel ' s barrage — their escape pods and self - destruct systems were disabled . Fenel , after finding this out , ordered his forces to destroy Tor ' s vessel . He advised Stazi to pull his own forces away from the " Steadfast " , but Stazi refused to back down . He ordered his fleet to fire a barrage of blocking fire between Fenel ' s fleet and Tor ' s vessels , prompting Fenel to call off the attack . Roan Fel later apologized to Stazi for Fenel ' s tactics , saying he thought Fenel understood the situation better than he really did . Personality and traits . Edouard Fenel believed that Roan Fel was the rightful Emperor , and therefore supported him when the Sith seized control of the Empire . However , Fenel was a ruthless man when it came to dealing with his emperor ' s enemies , even willing to use the Sith ' s own brutal tactics against them . Fenel was also very critical of the Galactic Alliance , particularly Gar Stazi , as he insulted him regularly when they were working together . Behind the scenes .
