Zurich Randolph

Zurich Randolph was a human male military officer whose career spanned from the final years of the Galactic Republic to the reign of the Galactic Empire. Following the outbreak of the Clone Wars, which pitted the Republic against the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Randolph served in the Galactic Republic Navy and ascended to the rank of admiral. Besides his by-the-book nature, Randolph was assigned to work with Jedi General Del Morrigan, who was known for his unconventional tactics. Though Morrigan was brash and reckless in contrast to Randolph's firm nature, the two overcame an initially rocky relationship to fight against the Confederacy, including Zygnost, Hinari, and Falleen.
Following the formation of the Galactic Empire at the end of the Clone Wars, Randolph resigned from his commission as an admiral in favor of a career as a colonel in the Imperial Security Bureau. In this role, Randolph rooted out sedition in the Imperial Senate as well as serving as a liaison to the Naval Intelligence Agency. Eventually, Randolph was promoted to head the reformed NIA with the rank of Vice Admiral. However, he continued to play an important role in the ISB and befriended the Imperial officer Erend Kane as he rose within the ranks of the Imperial Navy, assisting him in campaigns against Saw Gerrera's Partisans.
As various rebel networks began to grow and band together, Randolph sent his star pupil, ISB Agent Bor Kargin to hunt down a rebel cell known as the Phantom Cell. In response to the prolonged insurgency on the planet Milano, Randolph assisted Erend Kane, who had since became a Fleet Admiral, in vanquishing the Milano Resistance, which had been supported by the Phantom Cell. However, Randolph was amongst the high-ranking officers sent to the Death Star to discuss military strategies against the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Following the Battle of Scarif, in which the Death Star plans were stolen, Randolph was once again assigned to the battle station, where he was killed during the Battle of Yavin.
