Imperial in the Fel Empire . Bor Alsek was a male Sluissi who joined the Fel Empire as a mechanic . As an Imperial , he underwent training which taught him to dutifully obey his superiors . By following his training , he eventually found himself promoted to Chief Mechanic . During the reign of the Fel Empire , Alsek was assigned to the " Intrepid " , an Imperial vessel that was headed for the Unknown Regions . The mission was commanded by Imperial Knight Treis Sinde , and Alsek served under him for their trip into the unknown . It was on this mission that Alsek became acquainted with Sinde , and the Imperial Knight would remember his name even years after the mission when the two had gone their separate ways . Under Darth Krayt ' s Empire . At the conclusion of the Sith – Imperial War , the Dark Lord of the Sith , Darth Krayt , staged a coup , overthrowing Emperor Roan Fel . Krayt claimed the throne for himself , and the Council of Moffs supported the change in leadership . As a result , a new Empire was formed . The Fel Empire went into exile , taking with them the Imperial Knight s , including Treis Sinde . Bor Alsek was still working as a mechanic at the time , and when orders came down from the Moffs that there was a new Emperor , Alsek obeyed and continued to serve as a mechanic in Krayt ' s new Empire . By 137 ABY , seven years after the coup against former Emperor Fel , Alsek had been assigned to the planet Dac , a water world inhabited by the Mon Calamari . Due to the Mon Calamari ' s role in aiding the Galactic Alliance Remnant in the Battle of Dac , Emperor Darth Krayt decreed that all the Mon Calamari on the planet were to be exterminated . As the local Mon Calamari fled to the depths of Dac ' s oceans to escape the Empire , Imperial forces were sent to round up and destroy those Mon Calamari that had escaped . The vessel that Alsek was assigned to , an Acklay Battle Fortress dubbed the " Sea Lion " , was involved in tracking down Mon Calamari refugees and destroying them . Confrontation with Treis Sinde . The " Sea Lion " eventually came into contact with a small colony of Mon Calamari and attacked them . However , they were counterattacked by Mon Calamari Rangers led by Treis Sinde . Sinde was able to breach the " Sea Lion " where Alsek was working , and the Imperial Knight began to attack the Imperials inside the docking bay . As a shootout erupted in the docking bay , several fuel tanks were hit by blaster fire , and a large explosion ripped through the decks . Sinde was able to protect himself with the Force , but the other Imperials were incinerated by the blast . Bor Alsek was badly injured by the explosion , but he was able to get to a blaster rifle , readying it to attack the Imperial Knight . Before attacking , Alsek questioned his former superior . The Sluissi questioned why Sinde , an Imperial , was attacking his fellow Imperials . Sinde explained that he was an enemy to all those that served the usurper , Darth Krayt . However , Alsek was not ready to question those that he served under , and he attempted to arrest Sinde , trying to get him to surrender . However , Sinde refused , and he asked the Sluissi to stand aside , claiming that he did not want to kill Alsek . The Sluissi mechanic claimed that his injuries were already too severe and that he was dead already . Alsek fired on Sinde , but the Imperial Knight easily deflected the blaster bolt back into the Sluissi ' s chest . Alsek was killed by the shot , and his body fell lifeless to the floor of the destroyed docking bay . With all the Imperials dead , Treis Sinde left the ship , joining back up with the Mon Calamari Rangers . The destruction wrought caused the " Sea Lion " to take on water , and the Imperials retreated . Sinde felt very guilty about killing Alsek , saying he had killed him for committing the ' crimes ' of obeidence and loyalty . Personality and traits . Bor Alsek was a devoted and loyal Imperial . Due to his Imperial training , he had learned to follow orders blindly , and he had a tendency to follow orders from higher up without questioning the reasons behind those orders . This attitude even caused him to take arms against one of his former superiors , Treis Sinde . Alsek ' s conviction even led to his death , when he attacked Sinde , siding with his immediate superiors and his training . However , his familiarity with a blaster rifle was not enough to back up his beliefs ; when he fired on the Imperial Knight , he was immediately killed as the blaster bolt was deflected right back into his chest . Behind the scenes . Bor Alsek was created by John Ostrander for use in the of " " , the first in the " " story arc .
